The elven silhouette of cinema, in the material of fencing
A curved, single-edged blade, with a back that rises to a tapered point, engraved with veins and relief floral motifs. The pommel flares into a disc, the handle is long. It is the silhouette of the elven swords from Peter Jackson's trilogy — cast in polypropylene.

What distinguishes this piece
- A reverse-curved blade: the edge is on the outside of the curve, and the point tips upward. It is a cinematic design, not a historical form — and it is meant to be.
- One-piece molded polypropylene: the material for historical fencing, which withstands repeated contact without splitting. It has nothing to do with a decorative replica.
- A long handle: twenty-five centimeters allow for a two-handed grip despite the curved blade, which most curved swords do not allow.
- It is a practice tool, not a prop: neither sharp nor pointed, but designed to withstand repeated contact. It should be handled with protective equipment and an informed partner.

Did you know?
The elven swords of The Lord of the Rings were designed by John Howe and Alan Lee, two illustrators whom Peter Jackson brought to New Zealand specifically to avoid generic fantasy. Their choice for the Elves: a curved, single-edged blade, closer to a saber than a European sword, to visually signal a people who do not fight like Men. It is therefore not a historical weapon — it is a visual language, and it works so well that it has become the standard for all elven fantasy since 2001.

Is this sword a toy?
No. It is a polypropylene training simulator, neither sharp nor pointed, but rigid and capable of hitting hard. The usual protective gear is still required.
Did this type of blade ever exist?
Not in this form. The curved blade with an outer cutting edge and an upswept tip comes from John Howe and Alan Lee's designs for film, not from archaeology.
Can it be held with two hands?
Yes. The grip is about 25 cm long, which is unusual on a curved blade and allows a two-handed hold.
How is it different from the straight model?
The blade: this one is curved, single-edged, with an upswept tip. The straight model is a classic European longsword, double-edged.
