So I'm looking to get a copy of needle sword of Arya Stark from game of thorns. I don't like valryrain steel offer's. I'm looking to have an exact copy of needle from the tv series made. With a round blade with three or four fullers. I'd prefer the guard to be one peace of metal. Either milled or cast not welded. Who do you guys think would be the best parson to commission needle? Cheers John

Matt loves these Game of Thrones related projects... I think it would be a good fit.

The last BKS blade I had was to wippy for my tastes. I wonder if Ernie can do it.

Anyone heard from them recently?

Needle looks to be brass or Bronze. In which case I would definitely talk to Jeffrey Robinson

I was actually thinking of messaging Jeffery Robinson to see what he says. Didn't hear that about ollin. Has anyone else?

Should I say wasn't as stiff as I would of like. But I do need to handle more of their swords before I can judge. Ernie said he can do it.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT
