Weapons and armor pics...

Polish Hussar armor, sleeve entanglers and other oddness...

I don't know what these things are. Anyone know where I can find some pics of them, so my players will know what they're buying? I happen to be familiar with main-gauche, so I know what those are- but a lot of the others have me baffled. Take the poniard, for instance. These do 1d8 dmg, but I always thought poniards were a type of dagger? Doesen't seem to mesh with the dmg listed. If anyone could describe some of the odder weapons/armor, or point me towards some links to pics of them, I would be grateful. I'll do a bit of web browsing on my own, in the meantime. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Well, a poniard is a slender pointed long dagger of sorts. Particularly good at going through chainmail

As for the weapons and armor lists, a simple web search will turn up most if not of them.
