I don’t have any armor at all. I grew up fascinated by arms and armor as the library in my home town of DeFuniak Springs was full of all kinds and it was all genuine.

Collected by the U.S. Ambassador to Scotland who was from DeFuniak. The one thing I would be amazed by was all the huge swords. I thought they must have been incredibly strong to wield them.

I later learned they were Scottish claymores intended for two handed use.
