P&D Swords

P&D Swords and Mystical Gifts was a retail store located at 2801 John Hawkins Parkway, suite 153-N in Galleria Trace Plaza in Hoover specializing in swords, fantasy books and gifts, and medieval period clothing and jewelry. The owner was Patrick Brundege. The P&D in the store's name stands for Patrick and Denise, Brundege's wife.

Brundege originally planned for the store to be strictly as a sword shop, but decided it made sense to include medieval and fantasy products. The store was intended to finance Brundege's education as an engineering student at UAB. The store opened on July 21, 2007 and a ribbon cutting ceremony was held August 7, 2007. It appears to have closed between April and July 2008.
