Prop it up! David Harbour has revealed that the sword he used in the "Stranger Things" season finale is the exact same weapon Arnold Schwarzenegger used in the "Conan" films.
"Nerd alert. The prop at the end of episode 9 is the Atlantean sword from the CONAN films," David revealed on Instagram, while sharing several scenes from the Netflix show. "A lovely fan found a still of when it was established in ep 7 and used by an unlucky inmate who met an untimely death near the cells at the side of our gladiatorial pit."
The sword is very consequential in the Conan movies.

In describing the "actual sword used in the filming of both CONAN films," David, 47, couldn't hide his excitement and gave a shout out to the "Stranger Things" props department.
"It was heavy as hell, and such a tremendous honor to wield," he said. In ending his gushing tribute, he tagged Arnold and said he was "ready to accept your notes on my technique."
Fans of the show were stunning at David's fun fact, as many noted that they loved "Stranger Things" even more now.
"How's that for an Easter egg," one person happily commented.
Some fans claimed they knew the sword was iconic the second they saw it.
"My husband called it immediately and I was like '..nah.they wouldn't really.' APPARENTLY THEY WOULD," one commented. Another user said, "I called it when my hubby and I were watching the episode! He looked at me like I was nuts at the time."
