Know a Blacksmith or Engineer who haven't really been in the holiday mood? Looking for that perfect present for your friend who took up Mining? (Or are you perhaps the person who just has a World of Warcraft fan as a friend and don't have any ideas?) Well, if you've been hunting for a fun WoW gift for that hard-to-shop-for geek on your list, you should check out this nifty holiday item by Paul Pape. That's right, it's a Khorium Ore-nament, hand-made with little sparkly Swarovski crystals! I have to admit, if my tree wasn't already overflowing with geek ornaments, I'd snap one of these up myself. I know how thrilled I am to stumble across a Khorium vein on my Rogue when I'm running around in-game. It seems like a fun thing to just "run across" in your holiday decor as well. Of course, I suppose you will have to watch out for other WoW players who might gank your node when you're off getting some pie!

Interesting! Hopefully we'll be seeing some more gift ideas other than gift cards soon, I have a few WoW'ers to shop for this year

I'm trying to decide if the bf is geeky enough to buy this for. He's addicted enough, that's for sure...

Now that's pretty nerdy, but then again so is reading a WoW blog

I might consider buying one ( for myself, since I don't know anyone that likes WoW, and I don't think my guildies will be giving me their address to ship it to them) if I were getting a tree this year. The new dog is crazy-go-nuts, so if we got one, I'm sure it would be torn down within three days.

Having just spent the entire weekend hunting down Khorium nodes to gain 45 points of mining skill, I'd be happy to never see another one.
In fact, crystals of all types are getting rather stale. I suppose it's a graphic thing. Crystals are supposed to be made of polygons unlike trees so they don't look so stupid, but they have worn pretty thin.
