Xiphos Short Sword (Bronze Replica)
Leaf-shaped xiphos, 24-inch blade, bronze construction. The backup weapon when the dory breaks. Designed for the crush of close combat where the spear is too long. I used mine at Thermopylae after my spear shattered on the second day.
Defensive Strategy Masterclass -- Hold the Line
Classroom and field session on defensive warfare. Terrain selection, chokepoint exploitation, force multipliers. Case studies: Thermopylae, Masada, Rorke's Drift. Tip: The defender chooses the ground. The attacker pays the price. Make them pay dearly.
Campaign Planning Workshop -- Logistics of Conquest
Half-day workshop on campaign logistics. How I moved 50,000 men from Greece to India across deserts, mountains, and rivers. Supply lines, foraging, forced marches, river crossings. Tip: Amateurs talk tactics. Professionals talk logistics. An army that cannot eat cannot fight.
Iberian Falcata Sword (Reproduction)
Curved Iberian falcata. The forward curve concentrates force at impact -- it cuts through bronze armor like leather. My Iberian cavalry used these at Cannae to devastating effect. Includes scabbard and maintenance kit.
War Elephant Tactics -- Psychological Warfare Seminar

Most armies break before the elephant reaches them. Also covers countermeasures -- Rome eventually learned to open lanes and let them through.
Roman Legion Tactics Workshop -- Command & Control
How to command a Roman legion: manipular formations, signal systems, camp construction, forced marches. My legions marched 25 miles in five hours, then built a fortified camp before dinner. Tip: Discipline is not cruelty. It is the reason 5,000 men can defeat 50,000.
Apache Bow & War Club Set
Short mulberry bow and stone-headed war club. The Apache bow is compact -- made for horseback and tight canyon fights. The war club is last resort, close quarters. Light enough to carry all day, deadly enough to end any argument.
Inspirational Leadership Workshop -- Lead Without Authority
I had no rank, no education, no training. I led because I believed and they saw it. How to lead with nothing but conviction. Speaking to crowds, rallying morale, hard decisions. Tip: Do not ask people to follow you. Walk toward the danger and see who comes.
Joan's Banner (Replica -- Fleur-de-lis on White)
Full-size replica of my war banner -- white linen, painted angels, fleur-de-lis, JHESUS MARIA. I carried this instead of a sword. I told the court: I loved my banner forty times more than my sword. The banner never killed anyone. It gave men something to follow.
Scottish Claymore (Two-Handed Greatsword)
66-inch two-handed claymore, the weapon of the Scottish Highlands. Designed for sweeping cuts that clear a path through armored men. My own claymore was reportedly taller than most men. The reach advantage against sword-and-shield is decisive if you have the strength.
Highland Guerrilla Tactics Workshop
Hit-and-run from the hills. Ambush techniques, using terrain to negate cavalry, scorched earth defense. How common men with farm tools beat professional knights. Tip: You do not need to win the war in one battle. You need to make the occupation too expensive to maintain.
Niten Ichi-ryu Workshop -- Two-Sword Fighting
My school: long sword in one hand, short sword in the other. Most swordsmen use two hands on one blade. I use one hand on each. The long sword attacks, the short sword defends and creates openings. It requires years. We start today. Tip: Do not grip the sword tightly. Hold it like a bird -- firm enough it cannot escape, gentle enough you do not crush it.
