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

I remember asking Kit about Deathless on rpf awhile back. I think Noble ruined that one for us. They released theirs first and UC figured it'd impact sales so it was passed over? I'd rather UC do one but it won't happen. I have NC's and, well, its okay at best. Very lazily done imo. As for the regal...

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

Meh. I get it... But I don't get it. I feel like, past a certain point, you're asking alot from a $200 +/- replica, nothing personal. When I was big into firearms, I bashed a company called Century Arms alot. Until eventually someone at the FFL pointed out if a company like Century wasn't around, al...

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

Yeah the BudK show room. I went a loooooong time ago. I know it was sometime after I graduated, can't quite recall. But I was more willing to drive 3 hours to exchange the helm than wait on FedEx to roll my boxes around their truck. The replacement helm I got I watched the driver tip the box over an...

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

I was eyeing the WETA arrow first but the other collectors I talked to say its quite flimsy by comparison. Plus UC arrow is under half price now. I have WETA Nori Knives x2, Balin's Mace, and Dwalin's axes. One set of knives had a bad paint job, the paint bubbled up. Other than that the rest have he...

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

Man Kit... How many other cool props you have laying around I can't help but wonder lol. Regarding resin... I have noticed, especially with Thorin's Regal Sword, and after talking with Kimberly at UC, they're not really pumping out alot like most pieces (same for Dain's stuff) so they do sell out qu...

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

The crest is what was broke on mine, but not the boar's hair. That part is quite thick actually. Mine did have some missing/bad paint along that though. But paint I can fix, cracked resin... not so much. For me the boar's tusk was cracked all the way around. Noticed it before even taking the piece o...

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

Yeah Fili and Kili's Erebor swords were made for filming. Not saying UC is making them. But the pommel and handle is Fili's I'm sure. I was gonna share a pic, but doing so with my phone isn't working lol. Last I talked to Kimberly at UC she said there were no resin pieces (minus Moria staff) on the ...

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

Hi JJ, and welcome to our forum! :) Great job spotting that, I hadn't noticed it before. I don't recall what Fili's regal sword looked like. I assume by that term, you are referring to the weapon he used during the final battle? I recall Kit saying that most of them were pretty fantastical designs,...

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

It has been a while since I have been able to post anything. Slammed with work, as usual. The Bard sword is nearly complete and should be out early next year. The Gandalf Moria Staff staff got pushed back, but is in process again. I thought I would post a few snapshots of the prototype. I got a hol...
