Re: United Cutlery's - LOTR & The Hobbit - Movie Props!

Hello, I typically lurk in the background and read messages. I have never actually posted, but am happy to hear that you will be re-releasing the Glamdring White and Strider Scabbards. Your Halloween setup is also pretty badass. Great to see you posting over here as well. And as Tyler said, we'd al...

Re: RIP, beloved Orion

My greatest sympathies to you in your time of loss, Olorin. My two four legged friends are the most important things in my life. I cannot begin to imagine the pain I would have if I lost one of my boys. I know it will happen one day. I guess I really hope I go before they do. But, it's kind of one o...

Re: Orcrist Revealed

Speaking of Falcata, this is a recent acquisition of mine: http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i392/jmembry/IMG_0917.jpg The blade definitely reminds me of Orcrist. However, a Falcata makes a slight curve downward along the spine of the blade and is generally a shorter sword, or long knife. I put a ...

Re: I need some help please.

The swords coming out of Toledo the last couple of years haven't been what the used to be. Perhaps it's the down turn in the economy over there. Many of the better artisans may have left the scene. Ten years ago they produced some great stuff. Now, not so much.

Re: Sword Demon

Google "sworddemon.com reviews" and you should be able to find more information, like reviews from customers. I often do that when I find an item on a website that I am unfamiliar with.

Re: Custom Made Movie Items

Thanks, Deimos. It actually would not be very functional as the boards are only 3/8" thick. It would take very little to break. If I do another one it will be at least 1/2" or thicker. Probably 3/4". The horse head is actualy just cut out of 1/8" MDF with my scroll saw, them prim...

Re: Custom Made Movie Items

Thanks Shadow. Not sure whats next. I am currently doing some customizing of a couple of swords, but not sure of the next made from scratch project. I'm running out of room for stuff. I may have to take a break for a while. I'm about to get very busy at work, so I may not have a choice. We'll see.

Re: Custom Made Movie Items

One last tiny little item. I've been working on a display set up around my "300" King Leonidas helmet and sword. I eventually want his cape wrapped around the stand held together with the brooch. I was going to buy the licensed wolf's tooth necklace, but wile I was making the Conan's Wheel...

Re: Custom Made Movie Items

Here is a Rohan shield that I just finished. Now, before anyone points it out....No, it is not meant to be like anything actually seen in any of the LOTR movies. I wanted something in structure along the lines of the Gondorian Shield (parallel boards in an arch), but with a Rohan theme. So, for your...

Custom Made Movie Items

Thought I would show a few items that I've created over the past few months. First is a broken Conan Father's Sword with a display. This is actually an idea that I got from another forum that I was browsing around on. One of the members had made a broken version of the Conan Fathers sword like what ...

Re: The chatbox?

It certainly would take some of the personal conversations that seem to take over threads lately. A good dialogue starts about a single intersting subject, and before long it becomes a series of personal conversations between two or three members way off the subject of the thread. We have had some g...

Re: Old member!

[quote=""Thranduil""]Speaking of floors, someone in here posted pics of their collection and had most of their katana's sitting in circular floor display stands.[/quote] Hey, Thrandy. I think these are the pictures of the stands you were referring to: http://i1091.photobucket.com...

Re: Orcrist Revealed

Thanks so much for your input, Kit, both here to us on whats happening behind the scenes as well as the input you take from here back to UC. We are truly fortunate to have you here taking part in discussions and educating us on what is going on and what goes into production. It always seems that you...

Re: Orcrist Revealed

[quote=""Valkrist""]I don't presume to think that the beancounters and decision makers at UC or BudK listen to what we have to say, but Sam's sword kinda came out of left field at a time when collectors knew the LOTR line was ending, yet many fan favourite and desperately wanted ...

Re: Greetings

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? That's the first time I've seen pictures of your MUSEUM, N2D. Now that's just wrong that one man could create something that absolutely mind boggling in his home. I am stunned. My hat is off to you sir. Are you selling tickets? Sorry Pilgrim. I didn't mean to steal away from you ...

Re: Orcrist Revealed

Kit, I was wondereing about materials that UC is planning on using on the Hobbit weapons. I hate to bring a negative note to the discussion, but a few of UC's last LOTR weapons were somewhat disappointing. Specifically, there were many gripes on the MC Samwise sword and on the sword of Isildur. That...

Re: Orcrist Revealed

[quote=""Deimos""]Agreed...it needs to have a wall plaque mount. And due to its curved blade I also agree that it should be a horizontal display. The Hadhfang table display [still] drives me crazy even now. I have been trying to figure out a way to mount it similarly to the HEWS....

Re: collectors or maby not

That is an online retailer called Redford Films. Their website is www.redfordfilms.com . They have had museum collection Stings and Glamdrings on their website and on Ebay for a few months, all with no case or COA. Looks like they also now have them on Amazon. They must have made a special purchase ...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all at UC Forums. Enjoy and be thankful for the blessings that you have. Remember....even if it's a particularly dark time for you, you can probably look around during the day and find someone who has it worse. And, you can also probably look at your life and find blessings in...

Re: happy veterans day

For all of the freedoms and liberties that we have in the US, every day should be Veteran's Day. We have so much to be grateful for that our men and women in uniform fought and died for. On e day is not enough.

Re: Orcrist Revealed

[quote=""Conan""]Also just wanna add! that my snap shot answered yet another question! the sword has greenish paint on it with probably means they are going to do glowing effects on it! (like green screen)[/quote] I think the green you're seeing is a reflection of the massive gre...

Re: The Hobbit

Sorry to get off topic a bit, but while you are popping in on this thread and we have your attention Kit (always a treat), have you heard any talk around UC about any future LOTR weapons being made permanently affixed to their displays. This subject has come up several times here on the forum in the...

Re: New Conan (Original) Blades from Windlass

Looks like Museum Replicas are no longer sticking to the October 2011 ship date for the new Conan swords. I checked over the weekend and noticed that on the main page for the original Conan line it still says "Shipping in October 2011", but when you select an individual sword, such as the ...
