FORGING ELVEN SWORD | Inspired by The Lord of the Rings

[@metagamingOficial]

Beautiful blade, friend! The elves would be very proud! 👏👏👏👏

[@benjaminkorhum5068]

Mate, that is one beautiful sword. We see improvement since the previous elven swords you made. If I may though, I really think you should add a pin (or 2) in the handle so the blade is not only hold by epoxy in the said handle.

[@demingzhang7204]

my thoughts exactly, this blade is going to wobble as soon as it gets some serious action.

[@Gabriel-Abdala]

so elegant sword , relaxing to see you do the craft, the take at the end with the fire place and music was excellent, thank you.

[@diegoalejandromalavermoren1679]

Such an art. What a craft you have. 💯 Respect

[@stefanovanenio]

Simpley a work of art. Why have I only just found your channel? A bit of metal, a lump of, a ton of skill and wham, a stunning sword.

[@omerdync361]

Perfect!! Half hadhafang, half elven warrior sword. Congratulations 👏👏👏

[@manosvasilakis3820]

Finally.. someone built Haldir's sword.. thank you good sir!! this blade is gorgeous.. haldir would be proud!!!

[@PatNetherlander]

That is one beautifully crafted elven sword to go with the blades you’ve already made. Excellent work!

[@davidhamilton6473]

The entire way through this video my brain was playing the epic music during the reforging of Anduril. Absolutely beautiful work mate

[@jediweaponmasterliam9]

Beautiful job!! That's a great forging you did there.😁

[@leetlebob8203]

Beautiful blade lad, I don’t know how you manage to get a sword to fit a non existent style so well but you do. Although I’d recommend you put a few tang pins in for security, and I’d strongly advise against wearing gloves around anything spinny. Such as lathes, belt sanders, saws and drills.

[@universemaster100]

What a beauty. It's a work of art. Now the sword is ready to be imbued with some elven magic.

[@112-w7x]

Great Work, Thank You For Sharing!

[@danielmakerofrings2494]

That blade looks beautiful

[@phil6419]

Watching your videos gives me a new appreciation for weta workshop.

[@blendersmith]

Thanks a lot! I admire their work too ^^

[@OckertvdW]

So love his sword. It is awesome.

[@januszciechowskiphotograph7297]

Wow this is so awesome

[@dev0nSA1nt]

That is beautiful, I'm subscribing! Love from the UK!

[@blendersmith]

Thank you, my friend! Every support is much needed. Due to private reasons I didn't prepare new videos but there will be coming soon in the future! Markus

[@austinkoontz2845]

Hadhafang? Awesome. Cool.

[@JariDawnchild]

That's what I was thinking, even if the details are slightly different. :)

[@scrappyddz]

very nice indeed! Well done, Sir.

[@johnbobbitt6470]

Lovely. Wonder how that would look with a wire wrapped handle.

[@anentpsguidetothegalaxy9132]

In my opinion the rat tail tang renders the blade unusable for anything serious. However it is beautiful and I can see you do have skills 🖤

[@JohnSmith-bt3xh]

So beautiful😭❤

[@patriotaespana8842]

Increíble 👏👏👏👏

[@cobboGHS91]

may it serve you well

[@JohnSmith-bt3xh]

What wood did you use? Looks like maple, but even more light/pale.

[@blendersmith]

I used ash for the grip. It ist a good wood for long grip sections.

[@JohnSmith-bt3xh]

@@blendersmith Ah, yeah! That's good choice indeed. It's kinda forgiving what comes to bows for example, and like you said, long handles. Durable and so on🤗

[@brianpeterson5559]

Very cool 👍

[@llhda7618]

I am dying to see you making the Mirkwood Double-bladed Polearm? Can you make one?

[@thierrypasquet1503]

Magnifique.

[@Maggioretom]

Masterpiece!!!

[@dennisd1691]

pleas more beautiful work

[@jonathanmunozespinoza]

En las dos trilogías de Jackson se tomaron ciertas libertades creativas con el tema de las armas. En realidad los elfos usaban espadas rectas de dos filos, pero, la decisión de darles espadas curvas de un solo filo obedece al hecho de el espectador causal pudiera distinguirlas de aquellas que usaban los humanos. No obstante sí dejaron rectas y de dos filos a casi todas las que son importantes en el canon como Glamdring, Sting o Andúril (Narsil antes de ser vuelta a forjar por los elfos), siendo Orcrist la única que luce con un aspecto diferente al descrito en el canon. De todos modos, las hojas curvas van con la elegancia de los elfos y por eso son geniales.

[@austinkoontz5466]

Awesome.

[@Frisken96]

you upload in 21:9 and for that I thank you, I now get to use my screen without black bars on the side

[@bensplittstoesser7204]

[@jonbottoms8988]

Well done! How did I miss your channel? Excellent work!! Liked and subed.

[@homerdrunk6681]

great job

[@ali1190]

that's my favourite sword in LOTR :D

[@JariDawnchild]

Mine, too. 😁

[@gustavchambert7072]

Nice work. How much does the final product weigh?

[@rurounigato]

no mechanical connection between the tang and the handle?

[@BR5494]

A.10.ELV.ranking.very.good.work BRAVO

[@spontaneousqueef1655]

my precious

[@carloko08]

amazing skill, dude, great work cos is a bit diferent of the original Pete Jackson high elves sword cos your sword is thin and with certain similitude with the sword of lord Elrond, congrats, a real work of art 😉

[@JariDawnchild]

Not only do I love Elrond's sword, I also love its lore. :)

[@felipex79]

Amazing work! Congrats! I'll try to do something very similar and your video Is a great support.. can you please tell us the final weight and balance point?

[@rodneysomers6447]

I would like to know after having watched the video where you recreated the Elf fight knives and this sword where did you get the templates for them?

[@blendersmith]

I made the templates by myself

[@rodneysomers6447]

Is there any possibility I could get you to send me a set for both the fighting knives and sword?

[@kennyhagan5781]

Very nice, but what did you name it?

[@blendersmith]

@@kennyhagan5781 Elven Sword xD I didn't gave it a name sadly

[@mendozaconsultation]

Very nice. I would have put a pin in the handle for it to be better secured to blade

[@AJHurley-xn3jn]

Very cool since I been watching Lotr and the hobbit a lot I always been wondering how the swords were forged

[@janandersen1441]

love it

[@felix.der.ritter]

Sehr gute Arbeit!

[@wolveoflightart]

Really cool! ☺️ How much time did you spend on this beautiful sword?

[@blendersmith]

Thanks a lot! It took me about 2-3 weeks :)

[@saustin5554]

A pretty show piece.

[@AMM-bs2ku]

Really interesting! Admirable work, the result is extraordinary! 😍👏👏👏⚔️🗡️

[@MrMatty1956]

serious question, if i've learned anything from watching forged in fire, its that you don't quench the blade in water, which you seem to do. Is there a reason why?

[@blendersmith]

You are right. But it always depends on the steel. There are many reasons to hardening in oil or water. Water has the disadvantage that gas bubbles can form more quickly in the blade, that is the reason why many blacksmiths won't do that. However, the steel I have used can be quench in water with ease.

[@lawrenceverdekal8551]

Can alloy rims for car be forged??

[@janherrmann3165]

How long is the sword, and how long is the blade? Please reply.

[@ichwersonst935]

Ohhh Vita Cola?! 😆

[@TexasJuggernaut]

where can I purchase one? I've been looking for a high elven replica sword that's fully functional as well. are your Etsy shop prices correct? give me a response please or I can message you on your Etsy shop or if you have email let me know. thanks!

[@blendersmith]

Hey! Unfortunately the etsy shop prices are correct at the moment. In oher words: The maerial costs and the associated time are not compatible to sell my stuff cheaper. I know that it is very high but I try to work on that. In September, I will probably do a little discount of 30%. Best regards Markus, the BlenderSmith

[@TexasJuggernaut]

@@blendersmith I understand. I might have to wait till September lol but I've been looking for a functional high elven sword. Not many people make em. Figured they'd be popular

[@rjakiel73]

Beautiful sword but the lack of tang pins scares me. Epoxy is tough stuff no doubt but a couple of well placed pins would instill far more confidence in the blade.

[@blendersmith]

Hello Robert, like you already said, you're absolutely right! Meanwhile I changed the implementation of the pins. The sword and the knives were my first protoypes :)

[@TexasJuggernaut]

Any vids with this thing in action?

[@tonycassi1748]

excellent work, like a true elven blacksmith. But I don't understand why you just glued the blade and the knob. Making a fixed through tang the knob would have been much more solid. 💪🏻👋🏻

[@ReallyTiredCashier1]

Perhaps this particular build was meant strictly for display. If that's the case then glueing would suffice for solidness. My bet is that due to the curvature of the handle, he wasn't able to do a full tang

[@mdrtec]

wow !!

[@NinjaB2472]

Hey i love your work it’s truly amazing are you will to make special orders and sell if not i totally understand

[@blendersmith]

Hey, thanks for your interest. I'm currently working on an online shop but it is not finished yet. I will announce the release on one of my next videos then :)

[@GreenskinHolland]

Very nice sword! Just a point of critique: Your title says you forge the sword but the only forging part you do is to make the curve of the bar. The rest is just stock removal. Maybe I'm nitpicking a bit here but it's a different technique

[@markcoffman9522]

Always great to see a person ruining a good file!

[@strydyrhellzrydyr1345]

What happened to the pin in the brass piece.. it's there then all of a sudden it's not there

[@isaacsudduth1574]

Beautifully made.

[@chrisjones1798]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@aurea.antiqua]

Great

[@averagejoe8255]

Would prefer to see the details in bright white light. I can’t see anything with that firelight.

[@dominic6634]

In the event of an ork invasion im stopping by

[@princescythian4581]

but it is weak to make a Cossack saber, if not, then do it, all the same it is a cold and terrible wet weapon

[@JikaInFamous]

i think the showcase at the end needs more lighting. I can see all the great details of the build

[@outlawsamurai47]

Dwarves are better than elf's you want to bow go to an elf you want a sword go to a dwarf but still great vid my brother

The handle tho.... OOF!

[@talonvizsla]

Anyone else realize that this is Arwin’s sword?

[@sonicflash5090]

I’ll never understand why a whole video is spent on how it’s made…..then only 30 sec of the finished product

[@hugo-pg5tv]

Maybe cuz the title says " Forging an elven sword"? Ever thought of that?

[@thisishrsesht31]

Probably cause that is the interesting part!

[@scarecrow6292]

Well, the title isn't "using a elf sword" let that simmer for a bit. If you have any questions let us know. 😂

u just answered your own question

[@dylanbutler698]

It's about the journey; not the destination, my friend

[@jamesbuquoi2990]

I would like to buy that sword that you made in this video. I went to your website but it is in german(I believe). Could you reply to this email or send me a site that is in English? Thanks

Hi, James! I will reply to your email! I know, my website is outdated atm (I had not much time to translate it in english, but I will do it asap!)

@@blendersmith thank you. Your work is beautiful. How functional are the knives and swords

@@jamesbuquoi2990 Thanks! The knives and swords are all fully functional. For me, it is important that you can use them in movies or in show fights.

This dude spent many hours of time building a very expensive wall hanger. It’s very beautiful but in combat that so it will never last on top of that. It’s just way too damn stinking heavy.
