New Nav System Coming Soon!

We're about 75% done with a brand new navigation system for the website. This is something we've been working for a while, and should be a pretty cool feature. It's a mix of Flash and 3D and should help our customers find the items they need in a much faster, efficient and fun way. Our time frame looks to be within the next 2 weeks so keep checking back to the site to catch it.

Halloween Sales

Halloween sales are still coming fast. But then again, so is Halloween. If you're planning to order something for your costume, it's best to order by Monday, October 23, especially if you are on the West Coast. Otherwise, you'll probably need to pay extra for expedited shipping. 

We've got a few items that aren't on the site but should be soon. These might make good Halloween additions if you are interested. The first is an extremely ornate Italian Triple-Barelled Flintlock pistol. Really nice design on this one. Engraved everywhere. Classy and deadly looking.  We especially like the rich white butt on this one (and no, we're not talking about Paris Hilton).  It'll go for around $54. Here's an advanced look...





We're also adding a new high carbon Lorica Segmentata (Roman Armor for those of you who thought Latin was a dead langauge). It's one of the nicer suits we've seen, with nice decorative badges on the shoulders and chest.  
It can be bought with a matching Roman Legionnaire helmet that includes a liner. Sale price looks to be about $249 for the Lorica (including shipping). If you buy the helmet with the Lorica, you get the helmet for just $39, for a grand total of $288 for
a fantastic, nearly complete halloween costume that can be worn to events for years to come. The Lorica and helmet come with a polished wood stand, which makes the assortment a fantastic display piece in any room.

If anyone is interested in either of these two items before they hit the website, shoot us an e-mail: service@strongblade.com and we'll give you more details and purchasing info. 

 Greetings weapons enthusiasts, history buffs, pirate fans, and nuclear physicists!
The Strongblade.com web log is up, and though we don't have much of interest for nuclear physicists, we will be offering quite a bit for all those other groups. Strongblade.com is, as you
may already know, one of the premiere (premier? Preemeer?premere?) websites for historical
reproductions of weapons and other fun stuff. If you're looking for reproduction swords, daggers, axes, spears, armor, helmets, flintlocks, lightsabers, sword belts (you get the point) then we highly recommend checking out our website: http://www.strongblade.com.

This blog will describe the backside of our business. Let me rephrase that... This blog will give you a glimpse into the seedy underbelly of the dark and violent sword industry. Hmm... that's not quite right either. Okay, here we go: This blog will attempt to enlighten the world with a detailed view into the workings and operations of a sword business. (That's a little better.) We'll talk about some of our trials and tribulations as well as our successes and joys. And of course, we'll give updates on things that are coming up on our website. We'll also occassionally give out discount codes and give readers access to products that have not made it on to our website yet. Readers will also be privvy to new designs that we are working on, promotions we have planned, and much much more.

So, bookmark this address and visit us often.

And now a little something for you nuclear physicists...

Holomorphic methods in analysis and mathematical physics
Brian C. Hall

This series converges uniformly to F on the compact set Ps (z) || U. Thus when
evaluating the integral on the RHS of (2.1) we may interchange the integral with
the sum. But now if we use polar coordinates with the origin at z, then (v − z)n =
. So for n > 1, the integral over Ps (z) (which is just a disk of radius s since
d = 1) give zero. So the only surviving term is the constant term F (z) , which
gives -s2

Cheers!
