When you're in NYC to seen Wallace's sword, be sure to schedule plenty of time in the Metropolitan Museum Of Art's rather extensive "Arms and Armor" wing. Lots of good stuff there, not to be missed.

"Metropolitan Museum Of Art's rather extensive "Arms and Armor" wing."

The Philadelphia Art Museum has a lot of good stuff, too.

One of my faves is a full suit of armor, obviously made for a man with a serious beer belly, that has a lone bullet hole in it.

Which is why fencing is now a sport rather than a military option.
