So, Friend of mine brought this up and it made me curious.
It's not exactly a sword, but it's closer to that than a Japanese or medieval sword... so.. yeah
I'm looking for anyone who knows if I could find a replica (preferably practical) of the spear used by prince nuada in hellboy 2
not the sword, I think that's up on swordnarmory or something... the spear (he stabs red with it about 2/3 through the film or something close to that)

Does it have to collapse? :lol: I was actually just trying to find a reproduction last week. Zero luck, but I think I have some images I can link. Uno momento por favor. Stainless repro of it collapsed www.medievalcollectibles.com/p-1 ... 484230324c A practical version is a no go I'm afraid. |

Now wait, does it collapse or does it shoot out and change length mid fight like it does in the movie. He seems to be able to adapt its length to more than just out and in, there seem to be in betweens as well. I think somone should commission brenno to do a repro of this.

Well, it magically expands...that would be hard to recreate. Out and in would be the only practical way for it to work, and even that is questionable.

Yeah... I think your best option is to just have two shafts and some way to quickly change the head in and out. Hidden Chicago screws maybe or a long thread. One short to wear, one long to stick things with...

Two shafts, two heads.
Vastly simpler.

More expensive, though. It's doable but it will cost more because you're making more parts.
