Hello again! As I'm sure everyone is
aware by now that it is the holiday season. If you're a
movie buff
and/or the gamer type like myself you may have a few collectors items
on your wish list this year. Here are a couple of mine that I'm sure
you'll recognize brought to you by
O&FS!
This
sword is used by
Arwen in the
Lord of the Rings movie trilogy and is called
Hadhafang which translates
to Throng-cleaver. Elrond,
Arwen's father, originally wielded
Hadhafang during the great battle against Sauron when Elves and Men
made their last alliance.
Arwen used
Hadhafang when she helped
Frodo
escape from the Ringwraiths after they attacked his party. The
inscription on the blade is in Elvish and says, "Aen estar
Hadhafang i chathol hen, thand arod dan i thang an i arwen,"
which translates into English as, "This blade is called
Hadhafang, a noble defense against the enemy throng for a noble
lady."
The blade is made by
United Cutlery and
comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. And the best part, it's on
sale at
O&FS!
This
movie replica sword is another favorite of mine.
This is Connor Mac Leod's sword from
The Highlander® movies and
television series. Specifically this style of sword is a
katana. This
movie replica is made from real hand-forged, Damascus steel that has
been folded to create exactly 2048 layers. The handle is cast from
resin in one piece to authentically replicate the look and feel and weight of aged
ivory and was designed from actual prop reference materials. It also comes with its own Certificate of Authenticity! This
version includes the authentic metal tang caps, gold plated stuba,
and even the authentic red scabbard with red leather
sword belt that
matches the one worn by Ramirez in the first Highlander movie played
by one of my all time favorite actors, Sir Sean Connery! These and
any of the swords from
O&FS would make a great present to slip
beneath the Christmas tree this year. This sword and many other
movie replica swords are at
O&FS. Take a look!
