Kit Rae

Being a massive D&D fan, from the very early days of D&D, I have always admired the really cool swords, shields, and other fantasy items that I have seen at various conventions. But it was not until I saw Kit Rae's stuff did I actually purchase something. His stuff is nothing short of true art. At DragonCon 2009, I walked past his table 4 to 5 times, before I finally stopped to talk to him.

I wasn't there to talk. I was there to purchase something. I wanted the axe. It's beautiful. The Black Legion Battle Axe. Yes, I did purchase the black one, but I didn't stop there. I also purchased a throwing knife.

It was my first collectible sword (axe), and I even blathered on about it to both him and his wife. After all of these years, I finally found something worth purchasing. Something just too cool to pass up. I was there for statues, and I purchased a battle axe. Though I looked at them in the past, I never pictured myself purchasing one. Kit Rae changed all of that.

Why am I rambling on about this? Because now, I can purchase a foam sword. The first in a series of flexible foam swords. LARPA's should be drooling over this one, as it would be a fine weapon to carry into battle.

As time permits, I will be showcasing some of his other work. If you are into throwing knives, check him out. If you are into fantasy, D&D, or collectible swords, check him out. If for no other reason then, you should check him out for the the talent and beauty of his work.

I have been wondering if I could get him to do a personal piece for me.
