I'll be the first to admit, I'm not an expert on weapons. I know what I like though, and this blade looks fantastic. The bird's head on the grip, the curves of the blade itself, it all adds up to a beautiful weapon.

I had the pleasure of swinging the Machaera for a few minutes when it was still in the Weta Cave. One thing puzzled me - the round ring which was supposed to have the index finger through it to make cutting easier (or stabbing - I forget which) - it didn't seem comfortable to me, but I don't have a lot of experience in the matter - I was probably holding it wrong.

A worthy addition to the collection. Wish it'd been mine!
