5 comments about Claws of Riddick Dagger Knife Chronicles of Riddick St.
- I must admit, these are my favorite of all my weapons. I'm not a screaming fan over the Riddick movies, but I still had to get these when I saw them. They come dull. Very dull, actually, but I prefer them that way. Because of the form of these, it would be very easy to accidentally hurt oneself (especially with the points being pointed up on the display). The metal is a good thickness; they're very sturdy. The black can chip if you're not careful.
The fabric of the handle is laughable if you look too close (it looks like badly imitated dragon skin), but still looks wicked even at casual inspection. The handles are the perfect size for the average male hand, and the cord/curves give them a good grip. Good buy, especially for the price.
I can not emphasize enough, however, that they're DISPLAY weapons. Yes, they probably would hold up to a wooden stick, but with the ridiculously impractical design of these you're as likely to stab yourself as you are the wood.
- These are fun just to have, and they sure do look intimidating, but they are fairly worthless for anything real. The display came broken in the box, and the metal is dull and chipped, and a bit too thick to sharpen with anything, and do a good job. The handle is too small for my medium sized hand, and the grip is cheap leather. The made in China also stands out a bit more than one would hope. They might not stand up to anything very well, should you ever have to use them, but they look cool mounted on a wall.
- I just bought these for my brother, they arived on time. They are quite nice, yes the handle could be a little longer, but for the price they are very decent.
- I like the knives very cool for the cheap price. :)
Stand was junk and broke right away in places and the screws were to small in others. :(
- These are exactly what they look like and look fantastic on display. They are also very easy to sharpen (although I wouldn't recommend it because once these get sharpened they are very very easy to cut yourself with). My only complaint is that the wrapping on the handle of the blades is held on by a weak industrial glue and will wear off eventually.

2 comments about Highlander Duncan MacLeod Forged Katana Sword.
- This was a very well-made forged steel replica of Duncan's Katana, and it included the cool and well-made under-the-overcoat leather scabbard that has adjustable harness straps to fit practically anyone.
- This sword is magnificent! It is everything I was hoping for. I'm an avid sword collector and martial artist, and this sword satisfies both categories.
This sword totally puts the cheaper wall hangers to shame. Once you weld it, you know your handling a quality piece. The handle fits perfect in your grip. It's just the right shape to provide an ergonomic effect.
Its balance is awesome. Just enough heft to follow through with a powerful swing, yet easy too stop and remaneuver.
The blade is beautiful. I had to clean it up alittle. It still had some kind of cosmoline on it. Once cleaned up (blade polish worked like a charm), I was really impressed. The hamon's uneven flow indicates that it could be a true temper line. There are no hammered waves from the forging. Everything is smooth, straight and very very sharp.
Cutting - I was slicing through 1" bamboo very clean. Pool noodles, like a laser.
The scabbard is pretty nice, too. It can be worn over the shoulder, leaving the blade to be drawn traditionally from the side. It allows a smooth and silent draw / resheathing.
Lastly, I was quite impressed with the packaging. It came in a officially licensed United Highlander box, with a letter of certification. The box provided the sword/character's history for this sword and Connor's, along with detailed pictures and specifications.
All in all, I highly recommend this product!

- I'd like to write a review of the product but being the seller jacked my money and sent nothing I can't. My credit card company gave me my money back! After almost a month thought I'd better call to find out why I hadn't recieved it yet. The sales man put me on hold to look into it an hour later I was still on hold.... Long distence! I finally hung up and called back it was busy. Threw out the next day as I tried to call all I got was a busy signal. Thats when I called my crediter and they gave me a credit!
My I just say that this has turned me off to Amazon!

1 comments about Paul Chen-Hanwei - Practical Series - Katana.
- I didn't buy this particular item from Amazon, I bought it off of Imerial Weapons' website a few years ago because Amazon didn't offer it at the time. I've had this Katana for almost 4 years old now and it is an incredible object worth every penny of the asking price. This is definitely a sword for the serious collector who values functionality at affordability. It DOES withstand the rigors of cutting exercises as the product entails. It DOES feel incredibly solid upon impact with the target (always use something no harder than a dowel rod; use cardboard tubing, boxes, tashegimi mats if you can afford them, etc.). Before you test make sure you have some training as to how to use one of these. EDGE ALIGNMENT IS CRITICAL WHEN YOU ARE DOING CUTTING DRILLS!! These swords are incredibly sharp, quick, and light and a slight miscalculation or twist of the wrist on your part could end the life of your sword and/or end you up in a hospital needing a fair amount of stitches, both will ruin your day. Treat it with respect as it is the real deal! Another thing as well: DON'T FORGET TO OIL THE BLADE BEFORE YOU SHEATH OR STORE IT!! The blade is made of 1095 High Carbon Steel which means that it is highly prone to rust! One simple fingerprint on the blade will cause a rust mark if not cleaned off, and depending on the placement of said fingerprint, it can compromise the integrity of the blade if not treated. I recommend spraying WD-40 or rubbing vegetable oil on the blade and wiping it clean with a rag or a soft paper towel before sheathing (don't worry if there is still residual oil on the blade, it's good for the steel and creates a protective moisture barrier). I also recommend picking up a sword cleaning kit (look up Sword Demon on Amazon, he sells them for like $8.00) to look after your investment. The one thing about Good, Real Katanas is that they last hundreds and sometimes thousands of years. This sword is the real thing and if you take care of it, it will last you way past your children's, children's, children.
