UC United Cutlery Museum Collection Sting Preservation and Restoration: Warning Expensive Collectible Damage Photos!!

[West]

Peter is able to do each of these pieces by hand and make any custom shape needed where as UC uses programed machines to grind each blade more efficiently and the same each time, but they have limitations. But to answer your question, they have been able to improve the blade grinds closer to the hilt than the previous MC release. It's not perfect, but closer.

Thank you for the photo of the new version. It is a little better.

This unlicensed mass produced replica has been in production for over 15 years. It always caught my eye aside from the other unlicensed Sting replicas because it looks like whoever made these tried. I’d own it were it not for its inaccurate size.

I think UC should be able to grind the blade all the way before assembly. This unlicensed replica is made in China just like UC's. (Or are they still Made in Taiwan?)

Dude, this is epic. I was vaguely aware of these swords but never really looked into them that closely. This is giving me bad ideas lol. The handle is what always put me off of these. Might have to get a cheap UC and try the same thing.
