Taken from the crystal tooth of Shai'Hulud, a sandworm, the Fremen Crysknife was sacred to the desert warriors of Arrakis. Steeped in mysticism, we're first introduced to this piece by the Shadout Mapes who unsheathes the weapon before Lady Jessica.
The exceptional sculpt for this blade was taken from a surviving prop that was purportedly salvaged from production after much of the set was left to the desert dune fields of Mexico. Tim Arp, working from a 2nd gen pull of the blade, ultimately rebuilt the end-cap and blade itself. He later fashioned the sheath while referencing the surface (pocks, holes, texture) spacing and hallmarks of the aforementioned, Crysknife.
