Guess what, I've done that before too! I haven't seen LoTR, though, and failed to make the connection. Another thing that could be done is to carve down the blade to make a dagger.

Sorry to bring up an old topic; I have recently moved and just got the internet up at the new place. But in reply to Mr. D, I have done that, and am realy pleased with the results.

Knives

Those are cool, but I don't really want to cut up any of my pieces (although I may eventually get to that point...).

And I know this is really off-topic, but Legolas only had one knife in the book.

I tried making them and screwed up but they look more battle scarred with scratch marks. I'll post them and you can laugh your heads off at my inability with a hobby knife :oops: :oops:

I'll bet they look great but I'd never cut up a piece to make one.
