awesome.

i agree with ******* comment, never heard anything good about the guy, but he was a memorable actor in his films.

it strikes me as weird that a guy who prides himself on eastern culture would autograph a sword "upside down" though. strictly speaking displaying a sword that way is dishonoring it. :ninja

hell of a display though
 
Sweet. What did that set you back?

I see some interesting things on your prop shelves.. Is that a miniature 'Dickel' bottel sitting next to the full sized one? And what is the weapon that's sitting next to the TOS Phaser and the white-handle Picard Tea Cup?

Of course he's an @#$%. .. I guess he thinks it's part of his imago ..

But yeah, he even cracked a smile when me and some friends came for a picture. :p

Yes. Those swords are very sub-par in quality. Not to get off topic, but...

I... WANT... THAT... TRAVELOCITY... ROMING-GNOME.
 
:D
thanks for the comments. :)
yep, the "dope" is from supertroopers, and the "blow" is from starsky and hutch (the stiller/wilson movie)
the roaming gnome is a fav of mine as well, just wish it was full size. :)
the weapon between the TOS and tea cup is just a TMP/TWOK phaser....not even completly accurate one, at that. :p
the price wasnt TOOO bad....$60 for the sword, and $20 for the autograph...
as for the sword quality, its above what you'd buy at a flea market, but not real great either.... i guess "sub-par" would be accurate, if you were talking about comparing it to a real sword....
i didnt know it was "upside-down" strange.......i guess he has no idea.
 
hell, id have snagged it too.

just re-read my comments and realized i may have some off harsh. didnt mean to, its a hell of a display (and dammit i wanna get some supertrooper prop weed.) :lol

im digging the gnome as well :lol

Sweet.. Great price on the sword and Auto too at least imo.

As far as Carridine being an A$$ he was cool to me when I hung with him but I was buying him drinks and talking his ear off about Music. :lol

He majored in Music and had some great storys to tell but he shows NO Mercy to people who rub him the wrong way and was a major Prick to some people while we were sitting at the bar.

Oh, yeah. Traditionally and (honorably), the Daisho should be set up like these pictured.

Wow... I really need to center that Shoto (the one in the middle).
