When I was younger My dad had bought a replica from the movies online, It was the original replica from before the design from the LOTR movies have been released.
It is either:

The Return Of the King (1980)
Or

The sword in bilbo's hand from The Hobbit (1977)

My Father passed away a couple years ago, I didn't spend much time with him and I feel this is one of the only memory's I have of him. The sword sitting by his computer.
I remember the bottom of it had a Jewel on it. I'm about 99% positive it was sting, It could have been another Hobbit/LOTR based sword or a knock off replica, but I feel obligated to find it and buy it, If anyone knows of something like this, any site, It would be more than appreciated to me.
Thanks

I could never afford one, but I sure would like to see one of these made. One of my all time favorite blade designs.
 
So you are looking for an actual commercial release of Sting as seen in the animated Hobbit movie? Or was this something that just happened to look a lot like it?

If so you might wan to start your search here

The members there might be a bit more knowledgeable on what was released for the '77 movie.
 
As far as I know, no replica of the animated film sword was ever made for the market,
I am making one that is heavily based of the animated version but it isn't exact.
it will still look cool when done.
