KIT RAE ANATHROS SWORD (KR0006) UNITED CUTLERY
Renowned weapon designer and fantasy artist Kit Rae’s epic mythological tale "The Tale of the Swords of the Ancients and Other Blades of Power" brings you this beautiful sword! This is Anathros, the Sword of the Earth. Anathros was forged with the destructive power to reshape the earth and its elements. Measuring 42 3/4" overall, this high quality collectible features a wonderfully detailed solid metal pommel and hilt with a wire-wrapped handgrip. The hand guard tips fold inward to give the sword its legendary ability to focus its devastating energy at a target.
The crossguards on the sword may be the center of focus. These adjustable spikes can be set in the "extended" position, giving the sword a more graceful appearance, or in the "folded" state, which gives the sword more ferocity and compactness. The spikes are tapered and sharp, like the talons of a dragon. The embossed center of the crossguards continues this theme, with a clawlike cusp in the middle. A breathtaking, sculpted arrowhead pommel finishes the sword and provides a nice balance (both visually and physically) to the weapon.The 31 3/8" tempered 420 J2 stainless steel blade is etched with ancient runes that tell of the sword’s power.
This sword comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and an 18" x 24 1/2" full color art print. Kit Rae’s fans, fantasy enthusiasts, and all sword collectors will want this magnificent piece! |

Kit Rae "Swords of the Ancients"
And so the tale begins ... In the beginning of things in ages past there were the Ancient Ones, masters of flesh, fire, and steel, who forged the elements of which the land was made. When men and beasts came into the world the Ancient Ones purposed to have dominion over them, hence they commanded that the Dark Elves create the "Swords of the Ancients." They were forged of secret alloys and each sword was bequeathed its own special power. The swords have been used throughout the ages in the eternal struggle between good and evil. |
