Carbon Fiber

Going through some old links, a while ago I had found this carbon fiber sword (made by Warren Thomas). I am not a terribly big fan of swords. I own zero of them. This is a piece of art. I am sure it cuts like crap, but it looks absolutely amazing. I saved the link because I was always curious if I could incorporate it into some design....

Description:
This sword features a blade constructed with a titanium core. Both sides of the core are laminated with carbon fiber to decrease weight and increase speed while maintaining superior strength. The tsuba is solid carbon fiber, the handle is a resin-soaked wrap over black ray skin and the saya is made from Ash.

His hand knives are pretty neat too. A bit on the expensive side.
