Concerning Therion arms

Post by Turambar »

You may be the best person to answer this Therion: I like the general look of your swords however im not really fond of the cord wraped hilt. is there a way that can be modified by the buyer? Also Have you ever heard the band called Therion they rock!

Therion the band is awesome. I had a video by them once, it sounded kind of egyptian, and the girl was mostly singing/chanting some strange language. Do you like Blind Guardian? They rock as well!

I like Night Wish as well. My band did a cover of their "Over the Hills and Far Away" which in turn was a song they actualy covered.

Howdy, Turambar.

I presume you're asking about the Sky Castle swords. Yes, you could modify the grips - unlike the peened Czech swords, the Sky Castle swords are screw-on pommels, so the sword can be disassembeled and the fittings modified.

Yup, I've heard the band - I presume they got the name the same place I did - "Therion" is Greek for "beast", and it's a semi-common nickname.

Therion

p.s. - the Sky Castle swords are on silent sale this month - I dropped all of the prices by $50 yesterday w/o fanfare....
