Hello everyone, need a bit of a favour. I haven’t memorised any of the graphs yet, and it’s very hard to individually go through all my notes to memorise the graphs
Does anyone here have a pdf (or a link) where I can find notes/sheets dedicated to graphs? Thanks in advance
Most daggers usually have guards to prevent ur hand from slipping forward, but I've seen a lot of cases where they don't. In some cases, it makes sense (ie: they are designed to be concealed, and used as a one-time assassination/self-defense tool). However, I am talking abt proper long daggers/fighting daggers that don't seem to have any sort of guard to prevent ur hand from slipping forward during a stab-motion.
I can't really think of a lot of examples right off my head, but the best one I can remember is the Highland dirk. The early ones (that evolved from bollock daggers) did seem to have a guard, which resembled a 'less-exaggerated' pair of bollocks to prevent ur hand from slipping up.
However, in it's most well known version, it had no guard, even though it was primarily a stabbing weapon
Other examples include the seax (yea some were kinda designed as pure choppers, but a lot of examples did come with very pointy tips specifically designed for stabbing), then there's the Persian Kard dagger, a lot of examples of Bowie knives, the puuko, etc
I am a huge fan of HEMA, arnis/eskrima, and I want to buy sword/daggers (fyi just as a hobby ofc, I’m not a practioner but I wanna collect them, as battle-ready sharp ones, not blunt wallhangers). I was wondering what are the laws regarding swords and daggers.
Would I get in trouble through customs if I purchase one? Are there any sort of special permits/licenses for them?
I would’ve expected Bangladesh to be quite open to the owning/manufacturing of sharp replica swords/daggers considering almost all of our neighbouring countries are manufacturing powerhouses of these sorts of stuffs (ie Windlass steelcrafts from India, DevilsEdge from Pakistan, KukriHouse in Nepal etc). There are famous ones in Myanmar, Thailand, and China too, but u get the point.
India is literally known for producing some of the highest quality swords, and most of our historical neighbours (Nepalis, Burmese etc) had always had strong martial culture, don't know much about bd, but we seem to be a bit of a unicorn in this regard
I am not married, but I heard that usually after ppl get married, they have this brief 'honeymoon phase' when they're both obsessed over one another, in a very ideal manner, and like yk, do lovey dovey things. Even I am not married, I can kinda understand where these feelings develop from, and I kinda get the gist of it when I daydream abt marriage sometimes.
However, I heard from a lot of couples that this phase is quite temporary, and it kinda abruptly fades off, but you don't really linger or regret on it, cuz life moves on and u don't really think much abt ur spouse anymore, at least not how u used to during that initial phase, and they kinda wear on you. And that this honeymoon phase only happens to a person once in their life.
So I wanna ask, what's it like after this phase. How would u compare ur life during this phase, to after it? Do you just see ur spouse as a 'special roommate' now? Or maybe like a best friend with whom you occasionally have romantic feelings for? I just want to understand the dynamics, how does the change happen? Does this boring phase last for the rest of ur life? Or is it like periodic honeymoon phase -> normal phase -> occasional honeymoon phase again?
