Alright, since I seem to be surrounded by fellow potterfags here, just gonna throw this out there. This is easily the baddasinest wand I have seen. It's the prop used for the blackthorn wand Harry acquires after his is broken in the seventh film (which sucked). I think the handle looks like it would have great ergonomics, and I like how it's not two fucking feet long like half the wands you see in the movies.
