Can you post a link to some of the swords your talking about that were reintroduced .
I personally have not seen other Highlander swords nice as the Marto. Would be interested in checking them out. I don't need 100 pct accuracy for a display sword I have been looking for a mentor sword thats closer then the Marto version. I have looked at the other options but for the sword cast off the original is 3500.00 you can fold the blade many times as you want i personally would never pay that nice as it is. Someone who has to have it exact guess thats your only option at this point in time I hope somebody else casts a authentic mentor and makes it more affordable to all Highlander fans not just ones willing to spend almost 4k. Sure there would be a lot of int collectors.
Planet I told you what i Make, I have less expensive swords that are close in accuracy, Im sorry you feel your being cheated but there are already 6 people to include Peter Davis who feels they are well worth the cost and time put into them... And anyone without a license who wants to recast without permission Will find a lot of issues with the law..
The Duncan sword of the dragon had several different variations also, with an without a metal collar...
Why would I spend 1000 plus on a artist rendition of the sword we talked about this I would rather buy a Marto .
...
i think we got crossed on pm's and misunderstood one another lol .
It depends what your after the show swords or the film. The mentor they make is not at all accurate but the ones from the show are in my opinion . I myself am after the mentor
i think we got crossed on pm's and misunderstood one another lol .
That's what I mean by your lack of knowledge... Artist renditions are made for fans who can't afford the real deal, they are made affordable and to be film like ....
The mentor is a sword that was made to specific details using pictures of the actual sword, Thomas mulack made sure it was as close to the original as possible...
That's what people who want a close to real replica get because they can't afford the real deal...
Basically you'r saying this... Bob made a very close copy of a darth vader helmet, not perfect but close, and joe has an actual casting taking off a film used vader helmet and is making high end copies, you'r mad cause the screen used casting is going for a lot of money when all you have to do is buy a close and fantastic looking replica from bob... You really need to learn about replicas...
