Aghayeh Khorasani, manam yeh ketabeh emzashodan mekham I think it would be interesting to see the ancient persian weapons and armor. My maman says she'll buy me a copy sometime around christmas. I'm so glad I came here and found an Iranian in the community.

Also, I just now joined and was activated. What would be a proper way to introduce myself to the community?

Thank you

Hi I'm new at this forum and...

I would love to read your book! I have enjoyd reading Oriental armour of H. Russel Robinson. As a student of the German medieval swordmanship and a admirerer of the medieval middle east, I also practice some reanactment as a Mamluk. I will certainly put all information to good use!

Ps: If someone of you guys have some information about the Furisiya or atleast some training manuals of middle east swordmanship and or other weapons. Preferably in English and is willing to share? I couldnt thank you enough.

GreetZ!
