Dune 1984 Replica 1/1 Crysknife Limited Edition 25 cm

"He's a creator..." Lady Jessica This replica reproduces the prop knife seen in 1984's DUNE, perhaps most memorably in the scene capturing the knife fight between Paul Atreides and Feyd-Rautha. In Dune lore a Crysknife is made from the tooth of the sandworm or Shai-Hulud which are sacred to the Fremen of Arrakis. Every young Fremen receives a Crysknife after completing a ritual to confirm their adulthood, and legend holds that a Crysknife cannot be seen by outsiders, nor can it be sheathed until it has drawn blood. Several props were produced for the film: a hero prop and a special effects prop that incorporated a hidden "bloodletting" feature that allowed blood to "appear" as the blade inflicted a wound on screen. This required some modifications to the blade geometry and handle dimensions. As such, each prop is slightly different, although both are cast in epoxy resin. The Factory Entertainment team studied the original props and created a 3D model that perfectly captures the nuances of each, cast in a single execution. Cast in durable bone-colored epoxy resin, each replica is then hand-finished and aged to achieve the correct on-screen appearance. This painstaking process means that, like the original props, no two pieces are exactly alike. Each officially licensed replica comes with a custom-designed display stand, a numbered metal plaque, and a Certificate of Authenticity booklet, allowing you to proudly display this iconic piece of cinema history. Limited to 750 pieces.
