Something for one of our fellow armigers.

In the "Royal Beasts" style. Well, in a way, crabs don't adapt very well.

Got myself a heraldic banner

It isn't a particularly fine or embroidered one, because it is going to be displayed on a wall that gets a lot of sunlight.

The company is called Arenal de Sevilla. They also sell a lot of patriotic merchandise. They have excellent customer service and offer various types of flags and banners in different fabrics, including embroidered ones.

I got a Huntsman at a second-hand store.

For €20, and after a deep cleaning and a good sharpening, it’s ready to become my hiking knife. New scales are on the way.

I’ve noticed that the awl on my SA7 sometimes stays slightly open.

It snaps close, but occasionally opens up a bit. It is clean and lubricated. What could be causing this?

I would like to know your opinion

Hello everyone!

Some of you have likely seen various posts I’ve made regarding my coat of arms. You probably found the second quarter—featuring the label—inconsistent, as a few people have pointed out to me.

That quarter was intended to incorporate a reference to my maternal family's heraldry; my mother is the second-born daughter.

This solution was suggested by someone far more knowledgeable about heraldry than I am. From the start, we viewed it as an unorthodox arrangement, justified primarily by the more flexible nature of the Hispanic heraldic tradition.

However, after doing some research of my own, I believe I may have been ill-advised and that the best option from the beginning would have been to adopt my paternal line's arms exactly as they are (see the second image)—I won't go into the details of that coat of arms' origins right now.

I would appreciate your thoughts on the matter.

Victorinox leather sheath and question

I bought this Victorinox leather sheath for my SA7; it's very nice and I love it.

​

However, as you can see in the second picture, there's quite a bit of empty space that could be used for something else.

​

Any ideas?

Application for registration with ISCH.

​

I have submitted an application to register my coat of arms with the International Society of Commoners Heraldry.

Does anyone have experience with this process? What is the average waiting time for a response?

Representation of my heraldic arms with three helms.

I created this depiction of my coat of arms including three crests.

From left to right:

A crest designed from one of my ascending paternal ancestral lines.

The second, the principal emblem of my paternal family arms, adapted and rendered as a crest.

The third, this one with historical precedent, taken from the heraldic arms of my maternal family.
