Poker and Ice Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 What's happening with the swords from A Song of Ice and Fire being made? I heard some news about it ages ago and haven't found out much about it since...hopefully someone here will know what's up with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sio Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 They're coming along, there won't be prototypes for many months though. I'm still torn up as to whether I want Longclaw or Needle more. Dark Sister would be great as well, I guess, but I think they're unlikely to make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poker and Ice Posted June 9, 2007 Author Share Posted June 9, 2007 I want Longclaw. From the sketches I saw of it it looked really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forderz Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Lady Forlorn has seduced me. No idea what it looks like, I just want a sword named Lady Forlorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywolf2375 Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Ice, Ice baby. That, Longclaw and Dawn would be my first three purchases. Saving my pennies & dimes for when they are available... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetyr Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 A battle-ready one would be awesome... The website where they sell it from is http://www.valyriansteel.com/ btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freudas Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Longclaw is sucking balls so far. The shield w/crest that's it's hanging from is going to be totally tanked, and it looks like they're doing the hilt and pommel all wrong so far as well. I know George is the one that supposedly approves all final designs, but would it really be that hard for him to look at the book for a reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I'm sure GRRM is aware of the book reference (as are the guys at Valyrian Steel), but as he's noted with heraldry previously, sometimes actually seeing something makes him realize that what he imagined in his head doesn't look very good in reality. They tried some with bared teeth because of the book reference, and GRRM still preferred the look of the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuthaHydra / Lord Jo Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I still want Oathkeeper . But Ice would be nice . I don't think the pommel is that bad . It's difficult to tell until one sees the finished item . And , yes , battle ready would be the business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faceless Dude Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 I'm waiting for the paired Arakh and Stiletto that Daario caries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
