The latest addition to Today’s ‘Divine Weapons’ series of miniature weapons is the third issued to date, and follows the Thunderbolt of Zeus, and the Bow of Artemis, both of which debuted in 2025, but with the weight increased from 2 to 2.5 ounces. This range visualises some of the legendary weapons wielded by the ancient gods, and we remain in Greece with Hermes. The trickster god of trade and sports, he was primarily the messenger god, tasked with communicating the will of Zeus to other gods, and to mortals.

He is often depicted wearing winged sandals, and carrying a herald’s staff with two snakes on it, called a Caduceus. It is the staff that Today has brought to life in silver. The design is stunning, easily the best of the three in the range to date, in my opinion. The intertwined snakes evoke classical Greek art, and the wings are beautifully detailed. I’m genuinely at a loss to find fault here.

There are two variants on offer, the most populous one having an all-over antique finish, of which 3,000 will be produced. There is also a part-gilded variant. This is unusual in having an inverted gilding layout on one side compared to the other. We think this looks vastly better than an all-gilded item, and the choice of side to view is refreshing. Only 500 of this variant will be offered. It comes boxed, with a certificate of authenticity.

The second new release appears to be a one-off, and comprises a pair of one-ounce daggers called Twinfang: Blood and Frost. This seems to be an original design, maybe very loosely inspired by something in the video game Elden Ring, and the two blades are essentially identical, except that Blood has red highlights on the blade, while Frost is blue. The handle detailing is the reverse of this.

It’s an extravagant weapon, for sure, not the most practical, of course, but you would certainly notice someone carrying them! Each of the daggers is an impressive 85 mm in length, and they come boxed as a pair, and only 500 will be produced. A nice piece, packed with some excellent levels of detail, but suffers from being released at the same time as that beautiful Winged Staff.
