The two items I would love to have from Tolkien's world are the Dragon Helm of Dor-lómin and Gurthang. I bet you can't guess what my favourite Tolkien book is ;)
I just got the United Cutlery Sauron Helmet and I was in AWE as I took it out. It's amazing to have as a display piece. Perfect addition to a Lord of the Rings collection
I'm so jealous of the red banner that comes with this... I bought it a couple years ago and there was no banner. I really wish BudK sold the banner alone I would instantly buy it.
@@Glory_inthe_3rd77 Did you mean to ping me? Because I have no Idea what you are trying to say here. I read it a few times and still don't follow. Your Sentances are all mixed up and I cant even follow your point? is there a point?
@@VoiceoftheRings he’s just a child who thinks adults shouldn’t care about their interests. he’s saying that you’re being childish for actually caring about the mace and the banner. he doesn’t realize that adults actually have hobbies and interests and enjoy things in life
NO FREAKING WAAAAAAY!!!! u got baby grond?!? That's so awesome! Ok well now u need his helmet and cosplay the whole darn outfit 🤣 Then have Yoisten play Aragorn with his Anduril sword This needs to happen lol
I'm glad all your hard UA-cam work has paid off and now you get free replicas every week! Congrats, as all of us hardcore UC collectors waited for this piece for many years to be produced.
@@311mikey Personally, the banner just seems like another cash grab from United. Just like the sculpted stand for the Sauron helmet and wall mount for the gauntlet. Just another way for them to release a "different" edition than the limited run they made previously. Great way to stick it to your long time collectors, but good for new people just starting out!
@@n2darkness Yeah man I hear you I agree. Just like the banner. You’re right though I’ve been collecting these for 10 years now and it made some of my pieces not be so rare
That looks epic! So, happy for you to have it, Matt! I love how you pulled Sting out to open it. A little suggestion, you gotta get Legolas's knives and learn to pull them out like he does then you can really open your packages in style!
Wow!!!! Congratulations for this wonderful addition to your collection..it looks awsome!! Cool how you opened it with a sword 🤩😀Next will they be sending the giant witch king mace? 😇🤔😆
So cool!!! I love this Mace!!! Awesome video Nerd of the Rings! My version did not come with the Awesome Flag! That's so cool that you got a Flag too! I have my Ring though. My precious.... haha loved that part!
Here's a question. Tolkien spoke of Galadriel's temptation when asked if he shied away from sexuality in writing, while also stating that writers often seem to not have reached puberty in theirs, and I'm wondering... Was Tolkien referencing Galadriel's words "all will love me..." as though she'd be lusted after, and so "all would lust for me." Or is there a separate sexual temptation he was referencing? FYI he also stated that his books were of war, and that sex wasn't such a longed for topic in such writings. I'm only wanting to know, because he sounded like he was tired of having been judged as one who was not comfortable in writing so, and was pressed upon often to write more promiscuously. I wanting to read all the literature to determine what he was talking myself here, and in many other things, but alas for years I've been building a homestead...
I would put the ring... When the mace is hanging... On the center stud of the mace... It would fit nicely right on that tip... And would be seen much better from the observer... And people would know what it is right away
Find the mass of this Mace of Sauron and a conversion factor to estimate the mass if it was made of cast iron. I doubt if it was made of Mithril but it is possible it was or another alloy, perhaps a nickel iron.
Hey just end to check the website where they are selling it as I am very interest in buying one of their swords for myself. But the site looks a bit sketchy, does anyone know their reputation orhave bought something from them? thanks!
It's definitely the coolest weapon I've seen. I'm getting worried one of these weapons is gonna fall of the wall and hurt someone though. Your going to have to have a war reenactment soon with that arsenal
Am new to your channel (yes, I have subscribed! ) and am getting caught up on your wonderful videos. Anyway, have you ever been able to find any other replicas of villain weaponry? I'm thinking of the mace that the Witch King of Angmar used during his confrontation with Eowyn and did you ever find if there is a replica of Sauron's helm?
Awesome job as usual Matt! That United Cutlery stuff is a little out of my price range sadly....... would be a great addition to a cosplay or Halloween costume.
Funny thought: what if sauron welds morgoth’s mace? That could be morgoth’s mace and armor that sauron has been using to continue with morgoth’s goals of domination and destruction
Say what you will about non-dwarfish or non-elven craftsmanship, but the bad guys seem to have been no slouches, as well. Would this have been forged and decorated by orcs, Southrons, Easterlings?
Lol, could you imagine the headlines? "Man fends off burglars with arsenal of Tolkien-inspired weaponry: Home owner responds, 'I didn't know which to choose, Gimli's axe, Sauron's mace, Gúthwinë, there were too many options!'"
15 lbs. No problem for me to wield with one hand. However I doubt I could wield Grond since in the lore, Morgoth was massive, like a giant or the size of a cavetroll compared to a mere mortal and Sauron was a pale shadow compared to his master.

Hmmm is it Roverandom? :P
I could definitely go for a Gurthang replica!
The hobbit part 2 I think!! Tell me
Hey I'm currently re-reading your favourite Tolkien book! Personally it's my second best Tolkien book (Hobbit and LOTR books being #1)
Hmmm sons of Hurin lol
Check out the Mace of Sauron and other LOTR collectibles here: bit.ly/3CPvvow
Absolutely pretty impressive piece of villain weaponry to add to your already impressive collection. I love it!
Matt whips out Sting to do the unboxing.
Sting: *Glows blue*
Matt: :O

The Mace of Sauron: One of my personal favorite Lord of the Rings weapons.
If it was made of proper steel, it would weight ~7 times more :)
A giant mace for a giant fallen angel. Makes sense Sauron would copy his master (Morgoth's) weapon. One hand welding a giant

@@thecyberhobbit thanks cyber hobbit. Ya, I was totally lost on what he was trying to say so I just stopped wasting my time figuring it out hah
NO FREAKING WAAAAAAY!!!!
u got baby grond?!? That's so awesome!
Ok well now u need his helmet and cosplay the whole darn outfit 🤣
Then have Yoisten play Aragorn with his Anduril sword
This needs to happen lol
Original run had some stress fractures just below mace head. I displayed mine next to the masterpiece collection severed finger of Sauron. Nice piece!
That was an insane impression of Gollum at the end!
I see you.... with that quote from Michael G Scott Sir.

Yeah I got the second edition with no banner wish I could just buy it separately

The opening with Sting is amazing
Your milkshake brings all the orcs to the yard.
A replica of sauron’s helm would be amazing. It’s an item of so much dark majesty.
Imagine his full armour tho
Especially the SOM armour
that Gollum impression at the very end was SPOT ON
4:59 I LOVE the office reference lol!
"Afraid of how much they love me" ehhehe I'm here for the Office references.
Love your work. The video on the Elves really cleared that up for me. As you mention, as soon as a group of them stop, they are renamed! Ugh. Thanks!
Jesus that Gollum impression at the end was insane dude

One Mace to rule them all
United Cutlery does great work. I have Aragon's and Bilbo's swords hanging on my wall. Both very well made and worth every penny.
So cool!!! I love this Mace!!! Awesome video Nerd of the Rings! My version did not come with the Awesome Flag! That's so cool that you got a Flag too! I have my Ring though. My precious.... haha loved that part!
Now you can blast the entire last alliance into oblivion in a mere 2 seconds!
Great video: I would love to see a tour of the nerd cave at some point on your channel!
You say “gosh” and “heck” so much it reminds me of being at home with my Mormon family. Did I just out you? Haha! Love the videos!
The Mace of Sauron looks damn Good.
Does it weigh more then Gimlis ax? I remember Gimlis ax being very heavy. I would be surprised if it's heavier.
You Can hang the banner up with the mace... Nah man, I'm going to war with that!
It is a really good looking banner.
@@VeteranVandal Indeed it is
How do you display the banner behind the plaque/mace? I couldn't see a hole in the banner where the screw would go to hold up the plaque?
What a beautiful set.When I save up enough money I'm spoiling myself with this.
Such a fun review, thanks!
I wonder how it would hold up to doing mace 360s? this might be a neat splurge for the garage gym.
And Sauron wielded it one-handed!
The final got me xD Great vid as always
Love this new series! will you be review the swords/weapons/collectables you already have?
I’ll mix them in with future items that connect in some way. I’ll have one soon showing all 3 of Gimli’s axes!
I’ve just ordered a 30 foot steel mace by the name of Grond that leaves smoking hot pits in the floor. Next day delivery courtesy of The Underworld ✊

Omg that Mace looks so freaking amazing! If I only had the space for such things. I love that you’re using Sting now just to open these boxes! 😅😅
CUTLERY?
That thing looks amazing!
The perfect house weapon. Nice
Man, Sauron's Mace is one epic villain weapon...We just have to wait a while until Melkor's Groud!!!
I would put the ring... When the mace is hanging...
On the center stud of the mace... It would fit nicely right on that tip... And would be seen much better from the observer...
And people would know what it is right away
looks bloody awesome Matt me gonna save up to get it looking forward to the next vid
😂 so good. Matt.. your videos are such a delight
Did anyone else get the office quote at 5:05?
Is it possible to buy the glaive of Gil-Galad with Banner?
Great video!! Would you to see your setup room tour☺
I love this video! 🤣 Awesome mace!
I HELLA want one of these. And I also really REALLY want a replica of Sauron’s helmet.

Awesome review i made a request a couple of weeks ago to cover Sauron's mace you actually did :)
I wonder if Sauron did use that as a blender to make his evil smoothie with 😂
lmao 🤣
evil smoothie 🤣🤣🤣
It's definitely the coolest weapon I've seen. I'm getting worried one of these weapons is gonna fall of the wall and hurt someone though. Your going to have to have a war reenactment soon with that arsenal

Are those some Klipsch speakers I see in the background too? 😬
Nice piece I got mine a few years ago, wish I could’ve got the banner with it.
your voice is so soothing
I liked the part where the bearer of Sting was the 'undoing of Sauron'.
Compare to Gil Galad spear, length?
Nerd of the ring how do you get your weapon mines are always out of stock
Awesome job as usual Matt! That United Cutlery stuff is a little out of my price range sadly....... would be a great addition to a cosplay or Halloween costume.
One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them
Wonderful! I want one of those!
Cool weapons (Nice video)
I wish there was a way to buy the one ring separately, it's mine.. It came to me... My precious.. ❤️
Maybe get a gold chain like Frodo wore around his neck to use to hang the ring so you don't lose it if it falls on the floor or something.
Funny thought: what if sauron welds morgoth’s mace?
That could be morgoth’s mace and armor that sauron has been using to continue with morgoth’s goals of domination and destruction
Sauron's goals was to rule all of Middle-Earth, while Morgoth was all about destroying and corrupting creation
And Morgoth was way larger than Sauron in physical from, so i would doubt he would even have size to wield Grond
This is awesome love it
Say what you will about non-dwarfish or non-elven craftsmanship, but the bad guys seem to have been no slouches, as well. Would this have been forged and decorated by orcs, Southrons, Easterlings?
By Sauron himself of course.
That’s total nice get bro , makes me wanna buy it lol
Omg its so pretty! I want one✨
how do i get in contact with you i have a few questions i think you may be able to help me with if you felt inclined too
is this a trusted site? I wanna get some lotr weps but they look alot cheaper than uc's actual page
Where can I get one?
Right here!: bit.ly/3CPvvow
My dude, you are going to have to get a house for your weapons, your collection is getting so big!!
very cool looking, are the other swords platic too? i was under the impression those things where real
no the swords are stainless steel... this was not made with metal because it be would VERY heavy if so
Next the morningstar of the WitchKing? 😂
Also I have the One Ring too 💕
Balin did say sting was more of a letter opener
you should get the mace of the witch king, or his helmet
Imagine defend yourself against a home invader at night with the mace of Sauron!
Lol, could you imagine the headlines? "Man fends off burglars with arsenal of Tolkien-inspired weaponry: Home owner responds, 'I didn't know which to choose, Gimli's axe, Sauron's mace, Gúthwinë, there were too many options!'"
Careful, the home invader may sue Matt because the mace is not supposed to be used in real combat! 😆
God what do I love your storries
Sauron: dude, check out my Mace
Morgoth: meh
Amazing video
Sooooo cooool. That's brilliant. So want one 👍👍
I always assumed Movie Sauron's look was heavily inspired by Morgoth's description during his duel with Fingolfin.
I hoped you'll buy Gil-Galad weapon, Aeglos.
When will a real trailer of Lotr series be published?
Wished they made the One Warhammer to Rule them All, Grond!
I wish these type of videos are in 4K.
Now that is a Mace that I would love to have… Regards🇶🇦
15 lbs. No problem for me to wield with one hand. However I doubt I could wield Grond since in the lore, Morgoth was massive, like a giant or the size of a cavetroll compared to a mere mortal and Sauron was a pale shadow compared to his master.
really nice!! I would love to have banners from the tolkien universe.
but btw 'We no longer ship to international locations' :(
Very nice!
