Fearless Greek warrior Achilles wielded his sword when he joined the armies of Agamemnon's (Brian Cox) against the city of Troy and used it to brutal effect against the Trojan Apollonians and in the vicious duel with Hector (Eric Bana). Made of hard rubber with an internal metal armature, the sword consists of a curved leaf-shaped blade finished in faux-gold paint to replicate worked bronze. A raised ridge runs down the length of the blade, and multiple curved inlays decorate the weapon. Finished in black paint, the angular ornate grip features multiple holes, creating the illusion of rivets. Green paint has been added to create the appearance of verdigris. The weapon displays signs of production use, including paint wear, scratching on the blade and bending to the tip, but remains in good overall condition. Dimensions: 28" x 4" x 1" (71.25 cm x 10.25 cm x 2.5 cm) Estimate: $10,000 - 15,000
