I did witness the dequillioning occur, but I was able to handle it beforehand.

I got to handle that longsword at Combatcon, and I can testify to its awesomeness. Glad to see you on here, Robert.

It's not part of their normal production at the moment. It's 4' tall and pretty hefty, bit you can give it a shot one handed if you want.. It's available at my shop. I'll post a link when we get it up on the website.

No limb twist at all. I'm not sure how they did it. Probably some elf magic.

I totally just saw this... Thanks though!

Me too

If that is indeed Orcrist, it doesn't look quite as unwieldy when it isn't dwarf scale.

I just finished watching the 8th production video from the Hobbit, and there is a short scene showing legolas with a sword on his belt. The hilt of the sword is very Orcrist-ish, so it could be that he took it from Thorin and wore it for a while, or the elven swords in this film follow the same aest...
