Question: Is stage steel allowed?
« on: April 10, 2007, 07:01:17 pm »
OK, I noticed that swords that are sharp enough to cut are not allowed. But what if it is sharp enough to cut, but it's in the sheathe the whole time and obviously peacebonded? Will it be allowed then? I really don't wanna have to sand a giant piece of wood into a sword shape and I don't believe in foam swords and such. They always look like crap.

Even sheathed, or whatever else you want to do to them (unless that includes dulling them to meet the requirements,) they will not be allowed.

And you made three topics here for the same concern. Stop it. If you have a follow-up question, that's what the post reply button is for.

you indicated a metal sword can be dull enough to be allowed, so just to confirm are rebated (the blade is as dull as a butter knife) metal stage weapons allowed.  A lot of the cheap wall hanger swords come that way out of the box or can be easly made that way.

I noticed I contradicted Kylite on the point so I'm waiting for a ruling from Brownie on whether dull steel is permitted. Once I find out I'll confirm.

OK, thanks guys. Sorry about the making new topics thingy. I kept forgetting about the other topics so I made new ones. Didn't mean to bug ya guys. See ya at the con. Oh, by the way. Are there any more rooms left for the con? If so, is there a discount if you're with the con? I heard rumors of some sort of discount. Let me know when you can. Thanks.

There's a whole thread on that topic too.  In fact, there's several of them.

Actually it isn't booked solid anymore. We just expanded our block of rooms with the hotel.

AWESOME!! Thank you so much guys. I think I'm done asking questions too so you won't have to answer any more dumb questions from me. Thanks again.
