Versatile Solutions for Modern Living -- Hollywood Swords

Now, I've seen everything. A buddy of mine was telling me that he saw the most ridiculous commercial last night while watching the Dave Chappelle Show. He said the commercial was hocking the all-time greatest "swords from movies": that is, actual swords from Conan the Barbarian, Gladiator, the Highlander, Xena the Warrior Princess, The Lord of the Rings, Zorro. They actually had the names for all the swords. Because of the sheer lunacy of the commercial, he wasn't sure if it were legit.

I did some investigating and low and behold he was right. Check it out. It's simply awesome. My favorite is from the Mummy Returns. Can you imagine swinging that bad mofo? There's also a "sword of the day" and an opportunity to buy shields, suits of armor, daggers, and if you have a deadline coming up for your next coup d'etat , they have what they call "battle ready swords." Gittyup!

Finally, if there's any doubt someone would ever buy from Medieval Weaponry, look no further than the "Sword of Maximus," which is sold out.

I'm sure the practical applications of a "movie sword" are endless: trimming the hedges, dicing tomatoes, shaving the cat, for those hard to reach places, for barbeques, bar mitzvahs, high school graduations, circumcisions...oh, the possibilities.
