JOHN CARTER (2012) - Thark Axe Sword and Sheath

A Thark axe sword and sheath from Andrew Stanton's sci-fi action film John Carter. Civil War veteran John Carter (Taylor Kitsch) was imprisoned by green-skinned warriors called Tharks, who wielded axe swords.

The axe sword has a hand-carved wooden grip, around which a brown leather strap is wrapped. The blade is made of silver resin and has a curved edge that is dulled for safety. The sheath is made of brown faux leather. String is threaded through holes along its length and it has a rectangular handle at its midpoint. Both the grip and the sheath display engravings exhibiting an astronomical motif. The axe sword has a robust and weighty feel. Dimensions: 111 cm x 33 cm x 5 cm (43 3/4" x 13" x 2")

Estimate: GBP 1500 - 3000 M
