I'd like to start a topic with pics and links to movies that have used Angel Swords in their making. So if you come across something, post it here for all to see.


I was channel surfing and stumbled across "Merlin's Apprentice" and caught a glimpse of what I thought was a Bright Knight dao. I watched for awhile and sure enough...one of the central character bad guys was wielding a Bright Knight dao! It has an "S" guard and pommel configuration similar to a few Bright Knights I've sold.

(getting ready to go to work, so I'll find the link to the movie and see if I can post a screen shot of the blade in question, when I get back from work tonight...)

Posted about that a year or two ago, as I have it on DVD, and my wife was watching it. You'll notice the credits don't mention Daniel or AS...

My importance to the world is relatively small. On the other hand, my importance to myself is tremendous. I am all I have to work with, to play with, to suffer and to enjoy. It is not the eyes of others that I am wary of, but of my own. I do not intend to let myself down more than I can possibly help, and I find that the fewer illusions I have about myself or the world around me, the better company I am for myself.

If I remember correctly, the Crocodile Dundee Bowie Knife is an Angel Sword Knife.

The "armourer" is frequently the one that purchases the blades, not the one that creates them.

Once it's sold, it's the buyer's property. You'd have to credit every product in the movie if you wanted to do that.

We had a thread about this a couple years ago. There was also mention of a Mad Max movie and it's pretty well know that Mythbusters uses an Angel Sword BK in their sword related episodes. They deal directly with AS on this and from what I have heard, they DO mention AS in their credits.

There was talk about movie props and I THINK that some of the AS employees made some stuff for a TV show or something like that. Daniel mentioned back then that most movie makers are afraid of using AS blades due to the deadly capabilities of their blades.
