The Black Thorn Sword, Scabbard & Belt

Black Thorn Sword, Scabbard & Belt
Tolkien described Gurthang as a sentient, black sword forged from a meteorite, also known as the "Iron of Death" or "The Black Thorn of Brethil". It was cursed with the malice of its maker, the dark elf Eöl, and while fiercely effective in battle, it also killed the innocent and famously communicated its willingness to drink Túrin Turambar's blood to end his life. 
The design choice to use real Rubies in the cross guard and a colour matched and injection moulded stone in the pommel to represent the thirst for its wielders blood was where it started for us. 
The black blade was a must for obvious reasons, the corroded pommel along with the soft glow (LEDs) that hide under the pommel casing and react to sound waves are to represent the voice of the sword as described in the books. 
Ray skin leather on the scabbard, well because it looks cool! And a custom thorn pattern worked into the belt. 
The inscription along the cross guard reads “I am Gurthang, the Black Thorn, forged by the master of Doom, Turambar”.
