Nice

Goated decal tbh. I’m surprised it wasn’t put out sooner.

Very nice decal

Seems like a tricky sword to use in combat… but ok… :)

In seriousness though, the “AT” of “combat” just looks awkward in that position. I’ve seen other patches with similar wording awkwardness, so it’s not something against this one, but it always strikes me as strange they didn’t design it slightly different to avoid that sort of finish? It’s like writing some big word on a page and misjudging the length and getting to the edge of the page and having some letters left, so you just write them vertically downwards… or something like that

Awesome decal though :)

who wants to buy one of the packs for me
