Mola Ram's (Amrish Puri) Kali-worshipping cultists carried their swords throughout the film, notably when they trapped Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) on a rickety rope bridge. The metal sword features a fiberglass pommel and resin blade. The ornate grip is cast to resemble a snarling tiger's head and the blade has an aluminum coating to appear metallic. The sword is finished in shades of silver and a dull gray to depict metal alloy materials. It exhibits signs of wear, such as cracking in the blade wrapping from age, but it remains in good overall condition. Dimensions: 33" x 4" x 2" (84 cm x 10 cm x 5 cm) Estimate: $1,500 - 2,500
