Not me. I hold up stores with a lightsaber, not a bat'leh.

I always wanted to get a Batleth I must admit, but never did. And you can buy some nice ones to including the kaylis (I butchered the name) one used in one ds9 epesode which is a bit diffrent looking. ther eis also that cool knife with the blades that flip out

But alass all I have is 2 swords form LOTR's

Mind you the ones he used the grip was nicer but no one made those. But if Armageddon hit they would ones I would grab fast lol

That so weak!!! That Batleth is three times smaller than a real one. I wouldn't be able to take the robber seriously! I'd demand he come back with a real one if he intends to rob the store!

ok that pic was not there origionaly but that is not a Batleth nore is it any klingion blade I am aware of to be honest. It looks like blades form form handle top and bottom and they curve back, a Batleth blade is much different. Mind you its listed under related storys so may be something compleatly different
