sword video...

edit to add -

so... should I link to this on my website?

I'm not proud of it but... it's probably the best video I have of myself actually performing...

Wow! That's incredible. You're born for belly dancing.

You did a great job.

How much do those swords set you back?

this sword cost me $90. I've been thinking I'd like to sell it and get something a bit smaller.

Top rate sword is a Saroyan- considered best for bellydance $200-$250 with shipping..

I really want a Dragon Scimitar(fair copy of the Saroyan) which runs about $120 or so... but they were out of stock last time I tried.

Then there's the Balady which is dirt cheap at $60 or so, and the Cas Iberia another monster that seems to have vanished from the market - I think it ran around $250-300.

There's also these wimpy little cabaret blades - I have one but... I probably won't use it for anything other than teaching tool. $50? or so
