(...) Hmm. I'm thinking more and more that they are dark grey. If you take a look at the pic on page 12, we get a big more of a 'head-on' view, and you can see a lighter grey brick (1x2?) between the two corner slopes. IMHO, they're dark grey. And (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.castle)

Can anyone either tell me or point me to a place that would what all these are referred too? All I know is the short older swords are referred to as "short swords" and the larger silver ones are "broad swords". Just curious. :) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.castle)
