This is a beautiful limited edition, licensed replica of Tristans sword from the
movie Stardust. Part
cleaver, part falcata, part Turkish Yatagan, and part
seax (oh, it's seaxy all right). This sword really
eludes firm categorization. What we do know is that it
is a perfect fusion of Victorian elegance and fantasy
whomping power.
Strongblade produced this sword with the help of Paul Chen and the Hanwei Forge. That's right.
For those of you who aren't familiar with Paul Chen (all two of you out there) he is one of the best swordmakers in the world.
Yes, the world.
The sword is basically being crafted from the inside out, with
special attention to the metal used, the tempering and
the tang. It is made from a rugged,
beautifully tempered high-carbon steel and
features a full tang. And when we say full tang, we
mean the textbook definition of full tang (for those
of you who left your textbook in your locker, a true
full-tang sword is one in which the tang actually
forms the grip, with wood or other material bolted
directly to the tang for comfort).
Tristan's sword comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity
(there were only 250 of these swords ever made,
worldwide) and a small polishing kit (some metal polish to
help remove the oil from the blade and a microfiber
cloth to give it the shine it deserves).
Accessories
A number of optional accessories are offered for the sword. We offer a beautiful leather scabbard and two table top stands.
The basic brown stand is attractive but very economically priced. We are also offering a deluxe glossy black stand.
The deluxe stand includes a free engraving. The engraving is done on a plate attached to the stand as shown
in the photo below.
