What's in the Box

One plastic Gandalf sword (67 cm long, 17 cm crossguard span)
Silver-painted blade with grooved detailing
Black ribbed handle grip with decorative pommel

This Gandalf Sword brings Middle-earth wizardry to Book Week, cosplay conventions, or Halloween fantasy dress-up. The 67 cm blade features grooved metallic detailing and a flared crossguard with upswept wing-shaped quillons — instantly recognisable to any Lord of the Rings fan.

Rigid plastic construction painted in silver finish with a textured black grip and bulbous pommel. Lightweight enough for all-day wear at school parades or convention photo ops, with decorative blade channels that catch the light. Single-piece moulded design means nothing rattles or snaps off mid-quest.

Perfect For

Book Week & Literature Days: A natural pick for Tolkien character parades, fantasy novel dress-up days, or any wizard-themed school event where students bring Middle-earth adventures to life.

Cosplay & Conventions: Essential prop for Gandalf the Grey or Gandalf the White cosplay at comic cons, fantasy festivals, or LOTR fan meetups. Pairs with wizard robes, cloaks, and pointed hats for the full Istari wizard ensemble.

Halloween & Themed Parties: Perfect for medieval banquets, high-fantasy costume parties, or Halloween as a wandering wizard. Add a staff and you've got the complete look for trick-or-treating or themed pub crawls.

How to Wear It

Strap to your belt or carry over the shoulder for wizard-on-a-quest energy. Pairs with grey or white robes, a pointed hat, and a wooden staff for full Gandalf authenticity. Skip modern accessories — stick with cloaks, leather belts, and weathered boots to keep the Middle-earth vibe intact.

Parent FAQs

Q: Is this safe for younger kids to carry at school events?

A: It's lightweight rigid plastic with no sharp edges — suitable for supervised Book Week parades and costume photos. Always check your school's prop weapon policy before bringing it on campus.

Q: Can adults use this for cosplay, or is it child-sized?

A: At 67 cm total length, it scales well for both kids and adults. The proportions match the on-screen Gandalf sword, so it works for any age cosplayer who wants the authentic look.

Q: Will the silver paint chip or flake off with handling?

A: The painted finish is durable for costume wear and photo sessions. Avoid rough play or hitting hard surfaces to keep the metallic detailing intact over multiple events.

Q: Does this come with a scabbard or sheath?

A: No — it's the sword prop only. You can DIY a sheath from fabric or cardboard, or simply carry it unsheathed for the dramatic wizard reveal at Book Week assembly.

Care: Wipe clean with a damp cloth; store flat to prevent warping.
