Can you put a terms on efficient goblin - killing and a blue - glowing alarm system that turns on whenever orcs are near ? Yes , you’re able to , and that damage is $ 9,900 . Because that ’s how much WETA ’s terrifyingly gorgeous replication of The Hobbit ’s Orchrist steel costs . From the intersection description :
Orcrist is made with the same care to detail that the swordsmiths of the lost realm of Gondolin would have involve . Peter Lyon look at Paul Tobin ’s design and created a slice of art and a useable artillery wrapped in one . The vane is made from tempered spring steel and the dragon ’s tooth suitcase is cast from CC60 urethane , paint and sealed under rosin .
On the cross is the name “ Orcrist ” etched in runes and the gently curvaceous blade , ground from spring steel , features etch elven runes stating “ The Serpent ’s Tooth ” . On the knob are four cubic zirconia gemstones inlay .
The scabbard is made from a combination of whitened oak tree and blade and connects to the leather belt with leather straps and buckles . The lettering translates as “ Born from the Maws of Dragons I am Always Hungry and Thirsty ” .
The belt is made from brocaded leather with brand warp , loop and tip . It have straps for attaching the scabbard .
The price is probably a morsel steep for anyone who has n’t recently killed a flying dragon and siezed their hoard , but you ca n’t refuse the sword is n’t beautiful . There are more mental picture over at the pre - order page , but you might want to bring a handkerchief to wipe the taradiddle off your keyboard .
