February 2004: Helm of Sauron to be made.
Many fans of the dark side of Lord of the Rings will be happy to hear that this Helm will be made by United Cutlery. It will likely be much more limited in number than the Helm of Elendil or Gimli's Helm. The helmet will be made of fiberglass because of the intricate design of the helm it was unable to be made from metal. Fully functional and wearable and like the other that pre-ceded it should be leather lined but don't hold me to that. It will come complete with wooden display stand with "the One Ring Inscription. They will be reproduced from the actual prop helmets using only the finest grade materials and skilled hand craftsmanship. Includes a parchment certificate of authenticity.
