The Buster Sword of Kentaro Miura's Berserk is chonky like a skateboard, so the idea that skate decks stylized after Guts and the gang being made — and being a hit — aren't such a stretch.

At Comic-Con International: San Diego later on this month, Dark Horse Comics will be debuting a new Berserk 'Skull Knight' skate deck. There will be a standard one, a silver holo (giving it a shiny rainbow effect!), and a gold foil edition, limited to just 200 and exclusive to SDCC. The 'Skull Knight' deck measures 31.87 inches by 8.25 inches, and is made out of 7 plies of 100% American Maple wood; keep that in mind as you think about how you get this from San Diego back home.
