An interesting series of events that led to this purchase.<br /><br />Last week I had purchased the other version of this knife, the blue and silver, called Lunar Legacy on other websites. I was going to type up a review of it, but after seeing this new one, figured I could just talk about them both here, at once. Plus, if anyone looks at the other knife, it's likely they'll look at this one, too. Or the other way around.<br /><br />A while after the Blue Knife arrived, I began to wonder what the wooden fittings would look like if they were red. Sure enough, a few days later, this beast pops up on the home page. I had to have it, and it just arrived yesterday.<br /><br />It feels strange to call them knives. When the Blue Knife first arrived, I was blown away. Not only is it beautiful, it's frickin' huge! The pictures don't do them justice.<br /><br />Their almost absurd size aside, they're light and swinging them feels good. The handle might take some getting used to, but that may just be me and my small hands.<br /><br />The wooden fittings on both are study, secured tightly, and I can't even begin to describe how awesome the wood looks in person. To me, the pictures make the wood look kind of glossy, but they're not, really, if you're expecting that.<br /><br />Color-wise, the wood is a bit different than the pictures. The Red is brighter, which I like better, and the Blue is a bit darker.<br /><br />They both came fairly sharp, even the piece that juts out above the guard is sharpened. The Red came considerable more sharpened than the Blue. That doesn't mean the Blue is a laughing matter, though. Sharpness may vary between individuals, however, but either way, you want to be careful with any bladed weapon.<br /><br />Some people say that they're fantasy blades, but personally, I get kind of a futuristic/Sci-fi feel from them.<br /><br />tl;dr Both the Red and Blue knives are incredible, easily the most unique blades in my ever-growing collection so far. They're sharp, sturdy mean pieces of steel. If you get one, I recommend getting the other, they look pretty good together.<br /><br />Oh yeah, and the studs in the Red Knife are a nice touch. You can find the same ones online or in a hardware store if you're interested in giving the Blue Knife the same treatment.
