Screen Cap Request

Well, a couple of weeks ago I finally rented Serenity, and thought it was pretty cool. At first we kept wondering where the Operative was pulling his sword from, but then we realised he always had it in a sheath nearby. This kind of embedded it in my memory.
Today I competed in a Karate tournament and did pretty good in weapons (Staff), and was wondering what I should do for the next one I plan on entering. Then I remembered that the Operative had a really cool sword :geek:

So if anyone has any screen grabs, it would help tremendously!

propstore.com has sold several of the ones used for the show of late, and I believe most of the pics (including the scabbard) are still available there. (If not, shoot me a PM, I have most saved to my hard drive).

There's quite a few similar blades on the market from $10 flea market pieces up to thousand-some dollar custom blades. Also, Windlass (Museum Replicas Ltd) has said they'll have a licensed version of it available later this year.

Thanks guys! Looks like this will be an easy one to make.

Wow! Great view of the scabbard. Thanks!

I think I found a base for it:

The overall shape of the blade looks exactly like the Hero version, and the only thing it's missing are the small rectangle cutouts on the blade.
The picture isn't clear enough to tell whether or not the handle is the same.
It's possible that this is just a common design, though.
