House of the Dragon Replica 1/1 Blackfyre Sword Limited Edition 117 cm

"A Targaryen must sit on the Iron Throne." Viserys I Blackfyre is one of the ancestral Valyrian swords of House Targaryen. Passed down through the hands of many notable members of the Targaryen line, it originally belonged to Aegon the Conqueror, founder of the Targaryen dynasty. Wielded as a symbol of power by King Viserys I, Blackfyre is a bastard sword, so-called for its one-and-a-half-handed proportions. Its broad blade is a "chopper" designed for both offense and defense. Tim Lewis, master armorer of the House of the Dragon, commissioned world-renowned blacksmith Peter Johnsson to craft the original Blackfyre hero prop. A true master of his craft, Peter is also a historian with unparalleled knowledge of the ancient art of sword-making. His experience has imbued Blackfyre with a true sense of character and tradition. The Factory Entertainment Blackfyre prop replica was created after careful study of the hero prop. Our team interviewed both Peter Johnsson and Tim Lewis, each of whom provided a wealth of never-before-seen behind-the-scenes information, including details and photographs of the original prop’s construction. We are very grateful for their help and input. Each replica was created using traditional techniques similar to the original hero prop, including lost-wax casting. Similar materials were also chosen, including wood, leather, and metal. To replicate the look of the Damascus steel blade used on the hero prop, the Factory Entertainment team chose to use high-quality En42 spring steel with a pattern that was chemically etched onto the blade. Each replica includes a sequentially numbered wall plaque and is presented in a full-color box with a certificate of authenticity. Edition size: 500 pieces. Note: Due to the size of this item, additional shipping charges may apply. Regardless of your location, the actual dimensions and weight of your package are needed to determine these charges.
