The Hobbit movies hype is now
striking me. Even when I haven’t seen
the movie, it has already awakened my interest in the Middle Earth Saga, or as
most people know as Lord Of the Rings.
Actually, Lord Of The Ring is only a 3 book part from more than 15 books
series I the Middle Earth history, and it is located at the very last of the
history, or as the last books. The
Hobbit itself is located as the prequel for the Lord of the Ring. So the story developed on how Bilbo Baggin
managed to get the ring and why Dwarf and Elf has their grudges against each
other.
Okay, back to collections, actually
I do not have much of Middle Earth stuff collections. I have only the DVD of the LOTR Trilogy
Extended Edition and the 1/1 scale replica of Legolas’ Twin Elven Daggers.
Let’s start with the Daggers. The set comes with 2 daggers, and a wooden
plaque to hang them on the wall. The
Daggers is around 50 centimeters in length.
They were made from hard steel, so no rust is found on them even after I
put them on display after more than 5 years.
It is also made in a full tang, means the metal blade was forged deep
into the end of the handle. So it
definitely is battle ready. A very
rugged blade they are. Luckily they are
not sharp. But with little effort, you
can sharpen them with ease.
The Blades itself was adorned with
Elven scripture and gold trim. The
handle part also has this treatment. If
you look carefully, the blades themselves was not the same, they are two
different blade altogether since both has different scripture. So it was not just a blade copy in two but
blades that mirror each others.
Definitely a very nice items. The
handle also can be gripped very firmly to our hand.
The Twin Daggers was kept on the
wooden plaque in crossing each other creating a nice X alphabet. Hang it on the wall and adorned it.
Okay for the next part of the review, we’ll get to the DVD
set which are a work of art themselves.
Where can i get this stuff?
