Red Sonja's (Brigitte Nielsen) sword from Richard Fleischer's Red Sonja. After Queen Gedren's (Sandahl Bergman) soldiers left Red Sonja for dead, a spirit turned Sonja into the most dangerous swordswoman of the Hyborian Age so that she could seek vengeance. Sonja selected her signature sword and earned the nickname "She-Devil with a Sword" by wielding it throughout her quest, using it to battle alongside Kalidor (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and ultimately to run Gedren through in the climactic finale.

Created by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith in 1973, Red Sonja appeared in multiple Marvel Comics franchises until 1986, during which time she and her signature sword became among the company's most recognizable characters. More than 50 years later, the warrior's popularity endures with a second film in the franchise due for release in August 2025.

This detailed longsword with a swirl-patterned bloodline is cast from resin around a weighted interior. It features a twine-wrapped grip, a winged crossguard, an elaborate crescent moon ricasso engraved with Hyborian runes, and a matching pommel, all of which are painted gold-color. The blade exhibits fractures along its length, discoloration, paint chipping, and two sections of repainting. Dimensions: 42.25" x 8.25" x 1.25" (107.5 cm x 21 cm x 3.25 cm)

Estimate: $5,000 - 10,000
