This sounds like a real fun time, I'm always bored in the middle of the night and end up smoking on the deck for like 5 hours

Thank you for the response

[Unsharpened steel may be bound into a scabbard and attached to the costume]

A friend of mine is confused by a minor contradiction in the .pdf of your weapons policy, between the Prohibited Weapons & Props section and the Fanime Weapons Policy FAQ section.

Live Steel is not permitted. Swords, knives, or other metal objects which have, or could take an edge are defined as live steel, whether sharp or not. Unsharpened steel may be bound into a scabbard and attached to the costume.

This was OK last year, what about now? We change rules yearly. This means that what was ok last year may not be allowed this year. Most especially, we're going to be changing rules on Guns and Gun‐like weapons. We require holsters, and they must be peace‐tied into the Holster. They should have the bright orange tip, or something similar which makes them look unrealistic. No metal swords are allowed. No metal blades. No plastic or metal Kunai (without being attached).

Also, as a US Marshall not in costume would I be allowed to carry my weapon? Irrelevant for this year but I will officially be one Wednesday.
