Flaming Sword
looks really cool, but currently is only in stories. | |
Flaming swords are a symbol of power found in many stories, but no one sells them.
Make a flaming sword by drilling a hole through the center of a sword and then some very small holes between the central hole and the sword surface. Fill the central hole with a flammable liquid, probably from a pressurized
reservoir in the handle. Light the liquid leaking out of the small holes with an included igniter. Wave around.

Alternatively, a flamethrower. |

But seriously, to use my example, a flamethrower uses huge tanks that are strapped to the user's back. I can't see how a sword handle could hold much of anything. |
