I think it would make a great Katana or any sword to have some tentacle theme of the old ones

Not exactly Cthulhu, but definitely a tentacle theme: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=642Wes loves him some octopus. On a side note: I liked that sword so much, I bought one too. Once I saw Jacky had made a few copies, I ordered one right away. I love the kanmuri otoshi geometry, it's a gorgeous blade.

Someone on the forums got a custom cthulhu sword made once. It was very cool.

I believe Baltimore Knife & Sword made a squid/octopus themed sword at one point.

Did you want a custom? Or something that's mass-produced?
From the previous postings, it looks like Fable Blades (re: The Cthulhu Kopis) might be a good starting point if you have the dollars for a custom job.

The Katana with the Octopus Theme is perfect for me...

Mwahahah Yes, I love my Fhtagn so very very much As far as the Katana goes, I had one made by Huawei with Tako fittings: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=642 It was nice, and the quality of the blade was exceptional for that price range, but I fell in love with another set of fittings and really wanted to customize the Katana and so I did. Ended up selling off the Tako koshirae a while back though :/ Still, if you're interested I'm sure Huawei can do another Tako-themed katana.

I ran across this old thread. The BKS Octopus saber was mentioned. I bought it about 6 months ago from Kult of Athena. I used it as a stage combat sword. it's light and very maneuverable with strong edges that resisted nicking. As you may know, stage combat is tough on blade edges. It's a great looking piece, as well. I'm very happy with it

Hello All ;
I saw a Cthulhu inspired sword in a shop many years ago in New England. It was ...... indescribably horrible......
