Top 5 Fictional Swords
Seeing as some search engines seem to send seekers of swords to my site, I thought I would oblige for my hundredth post:
Sword #5: Watson's Sword Cane
Let's open with a Holmesian example and how a sword may epitomise a man's character: Dr John Watson carries a deadly weapon concealed within an innocuous gentleman's cane.
And I bet he can kick serious ass with the thing. I gleefully await the moment in SH2 when he takes out half a room with it. Without even breaking a sweat. Before afternoon tea with Mary.
Sword #4: The Vorpal Sword
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
How can you not love the vorpal blade that destryoyzled the Jabberwocky? It would have me calloohing and callaying for joy too.
So, what do we know about it? Not an awful lot - apart from that it's pretty vorpal and belongs to the Beamish Boy....
