I have one of these to open it with  ... but my bank balance won't do all 4... so which should it be? I need some SERIOUS help here guys! Whilst I drew the line at full sized swords I feel that these small letter opener sized replicas are AMAZING! But which one should I get??     (and " nil point" to anyone who suggests all of them  )

I like the idea of ripping into your letters with the Flame of the West... but I like Hadhafang as well. Beautiful. Sting is quite cool also (I would go for this), as is Glamdring. I bet that helped  (Final opinion: Anduril - you have all the other Aragorn stuff already)

I'm on the lookout for a mini Hadhafang. Apart from Theoden's, it's my fav sword. Can't find one at a price I like though  They're certainly NOT worth the retail price IMO Rob

I also like Eowyn's sword... but as far as I know, UC has not made a replica, mini or full size. Its a surprise as it played a large role in the movie!
Anyone know anything different?

That's odd. I've heard reports much to the contrary, but I haven't actually seen one in the flesh so I'll reserve judgement until I have

I've heard reports much to the contrary, but I haven't actually seen one in the flesh so I'll reserve judgement until I have  I bought a Narsil from the Collectorzone for (I think) £14.99. I was very happy at that price, but I wouldn't pay £30 that's being asked for Hadhafang on the bay at the moment. R

The ones from Collector Zone were returns and weren't guaranteed to be mint condition.

£15 is below wholesale cost in the Uk  That's why only Collectorzone can chose to sell for less. They take advantage of their parents companies buying discounts

My CZ Narsil was a return from QVC - had their stickers on it. Just goes to prove that they can't sell if prices too high  Rob

HAHAHAHA!! I very much doubt he will Rob, but there's no harm in asking is there?  Lovely item though and I've been kicking myself for not getting any one of them when they were on special offer on CZ a few weeks ago

Guys I know how much he paid for them and I can tell you that with ebay fees he's already on the edge of the price, so I think it's fairly safe to say there's nothing doing there CZ did have a good price but they were returns and I have heard reports that a fair number of them weren't in the greatest of condition - so maybe it was a narrow escape?
