Hey... I was watching that, too. Haven't seen it in ages. The theatrical version, and the commercials do tend to lessen the experience. Oh well. Not like there's anything else on.
Plus! I think I saw Boromir actually do a couple of parries with the flat! Far out... :-)
Uhng... just got home from work. Whatta week from hell. Had a big deadline, and the phone was ringing off the hook due to the sudden collapse of one of our competitors.
Gonna grab me a bourbon and hit the couch to see what happens to these hobbits.
This isn't sharp, but it is pointy:
I replaced my aluminum version with the stainless steel one. 3.2 ounces vs 1.3. It has a real heft to it, and I think it could be thrown effectively, in addition to a pressure point/stabbing device.
I'm bored, and thinking about launching it into the ceiling over my desk, but I'd have a hard time explaining .45 caliber holes in the ceiling tiles. Maybe I'll try it in someone else's cubicle.
