A man wielding a "Star Trek Klingon-type sword" robbed two Colorado Springs convenience stores early this morning, police said.

...

Officers searched the area but didn't find the robber or the weapon, which was described as a "bat'leth."

I feel bad for the convenience store clerks and owners, but... AHAHAHAHAHA. :rotfl:

He's not even holding it the right way.

Must have got Mister Scott to beam him up.

A sword geek friend of mine has corrected that the weapon in question is really a Valdis and not a Bat'leth.

I believe he means Valdris , and if so...here is a
Valdris Bat'leth...

What an idiot.

[Sitalique]

Bat'leths are supposed to be at least the length of your arm, he really should've made a d'k tahg or kut'luch if he wanted something that small.

And learn how to hold it properly.
