Prop Conan the Barbarian Atlantean Sword

[thenammagazine]

This is a gay namebrands vs. generics argument. As is the case with all things namebrand and generic, there's a market for both.

To put simply the Marto Conan swords are not exact as the Albion. The Marto swords are Stainless Steel and not 5160 CS. There will be a different look to the blade. My hope is that Maro is still not using to short curved piece of metal and they are using a full tang. I had Marto Highlander Katana that broken with just swinging it. To me, wall hangers can be very dangerous still they are usually not very well constructed. From what I have read, Marto is still doesn't use full tangs. So they are not safe to swing.

I always laugh when I hear of people swinging these things...makes me think of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPPj6viIBmU&feature=related

How about this.

The generic Atlantean swords look good if you give the handle a re-wrap with twine. Got mine for like $65 a few years ago.

Marto is amazing, but I ain't got the bread for it.

I'll take a civilized discussion like we're having here before something like the "Indy DX05" thread....but as they say, if you don't like it GTFO ! It is a discussion board afterall.

Oh I agree. For what it's worth I think Marto is pretty nice. I just thought the Billy Madison Shampoo vs. Conditioner argument was getting a little tedious.

Love my marto

Well if you have the Albion on your mind, you'd be thinking of this...

FAIL! That should be hung between Conan movie posters.

Of course because I spend my days in the backyard like a dork swinging at things

I though Valfar was Canadian Not that I really care mind you, but there you have it.

[Valfar]

Looks like they'll be making ones from the new disaster too.

I would like to do that but the set up of my room just does not allow for that to happen. Plus I only have one Conan poster. I always like how people arrange their rooms to have a different theme in a different section but I just can't do that. I put things where they look best!

I was just teasing and do fully understand the limitations of space.

I was aware that your comment was probably in fun. BUT I really do wish I could put the Sword, poster, and PF all near each other.

____, I wish I could find a Conan the Destroyer soundtrack for under $30.

Jesus, it's Captain Optimism!

(you're probably right, but damn....let's hope for the best)

Anybody who's read the Howard books, or even the comics would agree, this isn't Conan:

But that's who they saw fit to cast as him.

Do the math :

Uh, "Ronan"?
