    Hi there,

    I was wondering if anyone knows of anywhere in Ireland where you can buy a Lord of the Rings replica sword? I'm looking for the High Elven Warrior sword that is shown in the opening sequence of the Fellowship of the Ring. I've found it online but with shipping and the customs charge it works out way too expensive. Does anyone know a shop or vendor in Ireland or anyone who is looking to sell one on?

    Thanks! :-)

    Depending on where you are based you can find many shops that would stock the replica sword you are looking for either that or they could order one in for you. Forbidden Planet are generally a very reliable source they are based in Dublin at 56 crampton quay their number is 016 710688 drop them a call and see if they can accomadate your needs.

    Hi!
    I tried in Forbidden Planet but unfortunately they said they haven't stocked them in years. Not to worry though I'll keep looking. Thanks for your help though, cheers.

    grosser kind of beat me to it, but yes, there's a guy in Letterkenny who makes swords on request. I don't know if he does replicas however, as the swords from the films are probably copyrighted. Plus they dont come particularly cheap. Whats your price range?

    Hi thanks guys! That would be great if either of them would make the replica sword. I suppose my price range for one would be up to €150 since it's a present, but i couldn't really spend much more than that. How much do these guys usually charge?
    Thanks for your help! :-)
