I haven't been around for awhile, thanks for the comments. Customs is Customs. Any product coming into this country is subject to it. They have some "Schedules" that they have devoloped that they will use to determine if and when and how much will be charged. You might be able to call...

I agree with you 100%. Sorry Peter, but Strider doesn't get the blood boiling. Don't get me wrong, it's still a beautiful work of art. However, I did do some soul searching, but as I stated above, they're almost a set. H*ll, they are set.

For Anduril, I also went with the satin finish. It was newly forged and got barely a workout ;) I opted for the weathered look for Strider. Aragorn spent a lot of time on horseback, "in the field" so to speak and did so for many years. The sword would naturally be weathered during his...

For legal reasons, it arrived with a "blunted" edge. Make no mistake though, that the edge it has could certainly ruin somebody's day. ... not to mention what the pointy end can do.

Just call me "Pillsbury." ... and for any of you potential "Bisquitboys/girls" out there, there are three Striders available.

... and more gender neutral than the one I learned :lol Congrats Blu and speaking of Daddy Rogs, here's an eBay auction that has all my alarm bells going off: 260567872253

I'm ashamed to say that I didn't check out the on-line videoI'm tearing things up looking for the companion DVD. Re: my boldface of your quote, I'd say that you're 100% right that Peter did it all. I base this on reading between the lines of my communications with Weta. Well, there's some...

Hey Doc, congrats on being a member of "The Ten." What's your number and did you get the Anduril belt and scabbard? They basically said that they sold the four Anduril belt and scabbards at a loss and the new edition reflects the actual costs. They also said that they don't expect to sell...

Weta offered an economy and a "Hero" version of the belt. No one went economy and four opted for the "Hero." And boy howdy it was extra! I hear ya about the $6K, but that very small edition size and the fact that Peter Lyons hammered each of these babies out himself was all I needed...

Well, I have my new “pride and joy” Weta Anduril #5 of 10 with the “Hero” scabbard and belt. I received it back in January, but was prevented from opening it until a few days ago because of a family emergency. When I opened the box and removed the top packing, the wonderful smell of leather...

Hi Gueezer, Sorry to hear what's happened, however i have some possible help. Go out to the eBay discussion boards under Bidding. Start a thread about what's happened and I promise you'll get the kind of help you need. Now whether or not the seller does the right thing is up to him. Oh yea...

Oh okay, I'll settle for the "Hero" model that sold at Christies for... cough, $500,000.

I just talked to Brant at SS and he said she should ship Friday. If you guys like, I'll post some photos of my absurb little girl when I get her.

Thankyew

Oh wait, that sentence should have read, "... a wise decision because I would have crushed you into oblivion. Just kidding man, we all have our price. :peace Oh yeah, you shouldn't post what your bidding, someone might be watching. :monkey3 They do and no I didn't.
