Uruk-Hai Scimitar from Lord of the Rings

June 8, 2009

Written by English philologist, J. R. R. Tolkien, the Lord of the Rings is an epic high fantasy novel. In these novels a terrifying sort of creature known as the Uruk-Hai are known to exist under the rule of a very evil villain.

This race was created by Saruman the White in attempt to bring about an even greater breed of Orc in both strength and resistance to sunlight in order to destroy the freedom-loving people of Rohan. It is said that they resulted in the breeding of Orcs and men. The Uruk, in a force of 10,000, were defeated at Helm’s Deep by the March of the Ents.

Similar to its wielders, the Uruk-Hai Scimitar is not exactly shiny and handsome. These creatures, Uruk-Hai, who carry these deadly weapons are terribly hideous and treacherously strong.

The sword we offer here at Heavenly Swords is the official sword from the movie, made by United Cutlery. It includes a parchment certificate of authenticity and a display plaque with the symbol of Saruman. This is a must have for any LOTR collection.

Gimli’s Battle Axe

December 30, 2008

Gimli, of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, a noble dwarf of the Longbeards and son of Gloin, was of the most important kind of dwarves. A true hero and friend to the elves, Gimli is known to be both dauntless and loyal. Gimli was a skilled fighter who befriended Frodo Baggins. They joined together, amongst others, on the quests to the Lonely Mountain and also to destroy the One Ring.

Battle Axe is the primary weapon of Dwarves. Its shape and appearance identified that Gimli is a member of a particular tribe. Gimli’s Battle Axe was retrieved by him at the Mines of Moria. It was once owned by the Dwarf-lord. This two-handed axe was his pride and joy, (as well his beard).

Gimli’s matchless axe was created for two-handed combat, making it easy to rapidly swing in either direction. This has enabled him to ferociously slice through the flesh of many orcs, trolls, goblins, and wargs. He also carries his Walking Axe, Bearded axe, and two Throwing Axes.

Specifications:

Includes a parchment certificate of authenticity and a wood display plaque!
Overall Length: 37-3/4″
Axe Head Length: 11-1/2″each
Axe Head Thickness: 3/8″
Axe Head Material: Forged tool steel, weathered and distressed finish, false edged
Handle Material: Solid wood, genuine leather-wrapped grop, cast metal parts with an antiqued brass plated finish
Plaque: 7-1/2″ x 10-3/8″ x 3/4″ wood with a silkscreened design. Hardware, instructions included

Lord of the Rings Sting Sword with Scabbard

December 18, 2008

From Peter Jackson’s ever popular Lord of the Rings trilogy, the Sting Sword came about. It was made in Gondolin after the first age. This sword was first given to Frodo by Bilbo before the Fellowship set from Rivendell. Frodo later handed it down to Sam.

The Sting Sword with Scabbard has runes etched into the blade that are said to be in Sindarin, the Elven language. The words displayed are: “Maegnas aen estar nin dagnir in yngyl im,” meaning, “Sting is my name – I am the spider’s bane.” Its name didn’t come about until after Bilbo had used this elvish short sword to fight off giant spiders in Mirkwood by “stinging” them. This weapon is made unique when orcs are near as it glows blue!

It is double edged with a leaf shaped blade and is extremely well balanced. It is great for Lord of the Rings fans, fantasy sword collectors, or even for a stage prop!

Specifications:

Overall Length: 25 3/4″
Blade Length: 21 7/8″
Includes Hard Scabbard!
