Not sure if anyone on here has checked out Awe me on youtube before, but they just posted a video of them recreating Sauron's Mace. I figured you guys would find this interesting so here's the link:

Sauron's Mace
...in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.
Re: Sauron's Mace
I think it should be given to the Stay- Puff Marshmellow Man...he is truly the only one who could weild such a weapon! 
I am Ringulf the Dwarven Woodsman, I craft leather, wood, metal, and clay,
I throw axes, seaxes, and pointy sticks, And I fire my bow through the day.
Come be my ally, lift up your mead! We'll search out our foes and the Eagles we'll feed!

Re: Sauron's Mace
A little too heavy for boffer combat.
I'll bet it weighs 20 pounds. Nice.

There are no safe paths in this part of the world. Remember you are over the Edge of the Wild now, and in for all sorts of fun wherever you go.

Who you gonna call? MAIA BUSTERS!
And yeah, I don't know if I could square off with anyone who could wield that thing... I guess that's what my arrows are for?

Re: Sauron's Mace
I noticed that all of the testing blows were holding the mace near the head and strinking downward with but one unimpressive side blow on a monitor.
I imagine that it is because the thing is so freaking heavy that it would take Sauron to lift the thing.

Those who give up a little freedom in place of a little security will soon discover that they possess neither.

I'd order one but I have enough single hand weapons.
