Shades and Blades

Love it here. Helpful staff. My son (18 now) saves up to come here every summer for a new blade of various killing degree.

This place was pretty cool! They have game, movie, and other franchise replicas both in steel as well as thick, foam~ish replicas. The prices seemed reasonable for the products. The Zelda shield outside caught my daughter’s eye and we went inside to check out the rest of the selection. They had an awesome 2H foam Master Sword replica for 30 something that she would actually be able to play with. I’ve never seen so many key swords. They had Frostmourne, too! A foam version and a metal version.
They also had the standard assortment of for-​show engraved scabbards/​swords, pocket knives, and other things you typically find at a flea market stall or even elsewhere in the shops nearby.

«DON’T TOUCH» this sign appears everywhere, but there’s a reason why… Lots of live steel is everywhere. You will find some damned fine blades. From replica swords in video games to katana sets and Wolvie’s claws. It’s here. It’s fun.

My visit here was pretty brief but I was able to gather that this is a cool place with every type of weapon you can imagine sold here. I seen a bunch of really cool and rare blades for sale, even some wolverine claw blades that seemed to catch everyones attention that walked in. They also sell some nice looking Sunglasses that are very non expensive if your just looking for some cheap shades that are of decent quality. This place is a weapons lovers paradise and you are sure to find something that will make you say «OH WOW» here. Very interesting place for sure.

Best Knife selection in the state.
Let’s say you want a military grade knife for those troublesome neighbors, a pocket knife for that pesky rat problem, a Legend of Zelda Master Sword replica for fun, and a battle ready katana for the inevitable zombie apokalypse. Where do you go to get such shiney toys. Why Shades and Blades of course.
For those of you that love a good quality knife, or sword, this is the only place in the state I have found outside of gun shows that makes the grade.
They carry SOG, Coldsteel, Kershaw, Buck, Schrader, Benchmade, Ka-​Bar, and many other knives. They carry fantasy weapons (Final Fantasy and the like), battle ready swords and weapons like Paul Chen’s Hanwei swords, blowguns, air soft guns, and plenty of other fun shiney stuff to keep you entertained and enemies quivering in their boots.
Don’t let the name confuse you however. I don’t think they actually sell shades anymore, or if they do I was just too distraced to notice them.
The people there are actually quite interesting, and the customers are more interesting. You may not want to go if you notice a bunch of dumb college kids playing around in the store. I mean who wants to get caught in the crossfire of a steel mace, and Gunblade weilded by a couble of village idiots.
To find it just walk down St. George st. and look for the window with the meideval sword display. You really can’t miss it.
