Description

From the film The Mummy (1999) starring: Brendan Fraiser this is the original Ceremonial Dagger. It is double sided and made from a very durable quality bronze. It is 18 inches long x 4 inches wide x 1.5 inches deep and weights about 15lbs. It is a real prop dagger from the film. It also served quite nicely to torpor a vampire after it was jammed into his head.




Tass

7 Vitae Infused Items (Monopoly tokens) -- One was spent in a my first confrontation with the Rakshasa in London. This tass is poisonous with paradox and extremely dangerous to use.
