[SPOILERS FOR THE WALKING DEAD COMIC]

I have a few different movie and video game props, but none from any of my favorite comic books. So I figured, why not start with Negan's bat from The Walking Dead?

Here are some reference photos:

It seems like the most obvious way to go would be to get a lousiville slugger from a sporting good store...

...and then since I don't want to actually cut myself or for this to be dangerous mounted on the wall, I was thinking of getting some fake "decorative" barbed wire to wrap around it. Like the one here--- Amazon.com: Barbed Wire Plastic Garland: Everything Else

This is the first time I'm ever trying to "build" a prop, rather than purchase one, so I hope I can get some advice from some of the awesome talents here at theRPF. What do you think?
 
Another option would be using real barbed wire and filing down the tips. I've never seen decorative barbed wire so I don't know what it looks like.
