It looks great! But I hope she never has to use it. With the chain attached to both the dagger hilt and the scabbard, if she ever pulls that bad boy, she'll literally have a Benny Hill moment.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Yeah, I realized that when I got the 1st Red Sonja back then, didn’t bother me enough to change it then, was going to change it now to connect to the scabbard but realized the top would be too heavy and wouldn’t hang right.

I was trying to daydream, but my mind kept wandering.

paint the golden/silver part like the holder so its one part. then sculpting a small ring or something at the top of the grib so a ‚new‘ dagger is created and the old top of the dagger grib is part of the holder. Good idea?

I am thinking of taking the hook off the hilt and putting another one top of the scabbard and let it hang from there without connecting it to the bottom hook on scabbard.
Probably have to add something with weight to bottom of scabbard to hang right.

A nice job. But I think there is enough trinkets and weapons on our beloved Queen. More, and she gonna look like the shop window of a hardware store...

Thanks omigeo...
I fixed the chain dagger issue, took the hook off of the hilt and put it on the scabbard, drilled the lower back of scabbard and put a magnetic disc to give the bottom weight so the dagger could hang right with the chain, will probably go back to the 1st Red Sonja to fix the same dagger issue.
Originally chain connected to hilt.
Reconnected chain to top of scabbard.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

WOW Warhead that is really amazing man! Subtle change, but it makes a big difference. Love the customization.
