Mine doesn't. It had a Victornix that had cuckoo clocks but that's gone now and besides swords and knives are different.

I could've sworn coach mcguirk bought the swords at the mall but I looked up the clip and no, those were two different episodes and he bought the swords drunk watching an infomercial and went to the mall drunk just because duh. Totally unrelated incidents.

Thanks for making me rewatch some home movies I guess that poo poo holds up.

Yeah the nearest mall to me does have a sword store, it's also a good place to get your trump flags and American flag bandanas.

Edit: also if you need the punisher logo engraved on anything that's your place

I feel bad for y'all, the Maine Mall is still kickin'! No sword store though.

There is a crystal store though, for the opposite effect.

They also proudly put up a Israel flag recently.

I have moved around a bit and have found thriving indoor malls in colder climates

Saw a sword store in a Washington State mall this month

No joke, the Maine Mall is about as busy as I remember it in the 80's. They lost one big store which has not yet been replaced - Sears (and they had a good chunk of real estate). But otherwise just about every other spot is open, it's always busy when I go there, the food court is kickin, Spencer's is well stocked with Fart Spray, and Mrs Fields got some fresh cookies.

Ours has Dicks, Victorias Secret, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, and a weekly farmer's market.

Even if there was swords I wouldn't buy one because I'm not a loving weeb. I'd much prefer to craft my weapons at the forge.

I saw the sword store in a West Coast state

The East Coast Mall I frequent has like 3 shooting galleries and a martial arts studio


As far as weebs go though, both had a store called Otaku House. I've never gone inside because I am also not a weeb but they apparently just sell anime wall scrolls, tshirts, and plastic statues of goku that I assume people crank it to

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

I live near the mall from Dawn of the Dead, the original movie. It's still a pretty good mall, it has the cheapest movie theater around (4.50 for a matinee ticket) and most of the storefronts are filled. Lots of unique small businesses plus the mall standards of Hot Topic, Bath and Body Works, and Victoria's Secret.

Every year they do a Living Dead Weekend that's pretty great, I wonder how much of the year's revenue comes from this one weekend for some of these shops.

My little brother has given me two, so I have two. I got drunk and started to sharpen the better one and haven't touched it since.

nope but then I've never seen a truck nuts in the wild in my country, so I'd like to think we still have some standards

My local sword store review posted:

So I bought the Nazgûl broadsword with the scabbard and I noticed that the belt system doesn’t even make sense or work in any positions I’ve tried on. Everything is completely wrong to how it should have been made and one of the buttons snapped off as I picked it up. Now I have to go make a custom belt just to wear it. If you’re going to charge for an actual sword make sure it’s functional to put on or don’t add a belt system so people don’t expect it not to work. Otherwise the rest of it is fine.

Look at this guy who thinks the blade of the Nazgul should be belted for a puny human haha what a fool

The mall has a Asian Gifts shop which has swords in it but I was more fascinated by a bunch of model train displays taking over several empty shops.

i think secret sword stores are out there

i used i live in san francisco and one night i was walking around the neighborhood on a quiet residential street and one of the garages was open and literally every loving wall in the place was covered in swords. mounted on really nice racks all lit up like it was a museum or something. just in a random little garage. i lived in that neighborhood for years but it was only ever open that one time
