My wife is into genealogy and recently found a branch of my family tree where apparently I am related to a guy named Adam Neff? who during something called the Second War of Kappel? chopped some dude's head off with a somewhat bad ass looking sword which is displayed in the Swiss National Museum in Zurich. So, while I have no use for much less knowledge of how to use one, if I can find out what it is, this is probably the best excuse I will ever have to justify getting one and shockingly the wife even seemed to approve of the idea.
