The handle is black leather around antiquated metal fittings. This sword really brings to life the power of the fearsome Wraith’s of mythology.
Carried by the Ringwraiths throughout the movie trilogy, these blades were hand-forged in Mordor of black steel to be carried by Sauron’s greatest warriors. They were one nine great kings and warriors of Middle-Earth, but when they were given nine rings by Sauron, who used them to twist the mortal men to his will, binding their powers and lives to the Enemy.
Later, when the Ring is rediscovered, Sauron sends his wraiths, including the Witch-king of Angmar, to hunt down the ring, sending them chasing after Frodo and the rest of the Fellowship as they make their journey. They’re known to ride on black steeds, granting them the name the Black Riders.
