Conan the Barbarian Atlantean Sword

Conan Atlantean Sword by Marto Swords of Toledo Spain

The Conan Atlantean Sword came into existence about 25 years ago. It was created for the movie Conan. Ever since that time many action, adventure, and fantasy movies have created their own signature swords. As a result those swords and their replicas have garnered interest among collectors.

Many consider the collectable sword to be an interesting conversation piece. Especially for those who happen to acquire an almost exact reproduction of the weapon of their favorite character from their favorite movie. The majority of these duplicate swords are faithfully created to match the original movie swords in almost every detail.

Some of these details include the weight, finish, and engraving. For example it weighs about eight pounds and thus it is considered by some to be a bit heavy for functionality for its class. So strong muscles are needed to wield it as a weapon. The finish for a truly authentic replica is hand done and is considered to be a very attractive and even satin finish. Deep engraving in the form of runes decorates what is known as the ricasso near the guard and pommel.
