Odin Makes: Sora's Kingdom Key from Kingdom Hearts

Kingdom Hearts is one of the few games I have completed more than once, so I thought I would make the Kingdom Key.

[@MakkuroVdel]

Odin Makes PORTAL GUN

[@kairencosplay6362]

Yes! I thought I was the only one who noticed that almost every tutorial/photo on internet about the keyblade was always weird. But this one is perfect

[@julieburt6732]

you got that right

[@jaqlagerweij9310]

i love that end line. and this is how odin makes!

[@cube.in.]

Totally agree. Great catchphrase.

[@carlchesser6063]

This aged like wine

[@jjveliz10]

Your attention to detail and integrity to staying true to the source material was excellent. Best model I've seen yet.

[@eternalgamer2445]

Dude! I saw 5 videos in less than an hour during work!! You've earned my subscription. I love your style, voice over explanations, attention to detail in your work, and variety of themes throughout. You're the real deal bro! You deserve your success! Keep making videos pleeeease!!!

[@meowserthegamingkoopa1862]

IM THROWING MONEY AT THE SCREEN BUT NOTHING IS HAPPENING

[@DarkHero-nn9xr]

I heard you have more luck with credit cards

[@dawnwayfinder]

No, no, no. You're supposed to throw "Munny", not "Money". *D:* Common mistake.

[@yubeluchiha]

Omg throw harder lmfao

[@powerwegy]

Try your debit card!

[@LordWalterVII]

Meowser: AimeeWoodWorks does a pretty amazing job on custom keyblades, if you're still interested? www.etsy.com/listing/200534340/wooden-keyblade-cosplay-prop-inspired-by?ref=shop_home_feat_1&frs=1

[@xale1231]

I love this man. They Kingdom Key looks so simple and clean.

[@Sir_Cumference314]

Odin please make a duel disk from yugioh preferably the original

[@filipfyhr9987]

I have been looking for a keyblade like this for so long! I havn't purcased any keyblades online becasue of the fact that they are to skinny and unlikely the video games.. as you also said in the video! Big thanks for this video. I will now craft my own Mickey mouse key blade and Sora's keyblade to hang on my wall.

[@OdinMakes]

Ciryez Right on!

[@dethkruzer]

I didn't know you had your own channel, but i'm so happy to have found this.

[@jcdavaloss]

Wow, I love it... Oblivion Keyblade, please, please, please.

[@LordWalterVII]

:p I mean, CDS, I found you a very very nice but quite expensive one? www.etsy.com/listing/497394368/wooden-oblivion-keyblade-cosplay-prop?ref=shop_home_active_8&frs=1

[@jedimasterjay4646]

This is amazing!! thanks for the inspiration!! Your vids on propshop made me want to become a prop master for my career!

[@SpillsOnEverything]

Fantastic pacing, no bull filler and I learned a number of things. Great video!

[@BiGbTCN]

nice vid! FINALLY someone who made it the right way! and with a parts list as well? PROPS to you man keep it up! definitely subbed!

[@stupidtaurus6039]

This is EXACTLY what I needed!!! Thank you so so so much for your video, you demonstrated everything so well and so clearly, and it was a lot of fun to watch as well!! ✨✨

[@sillysiji5257]

Odin I really enjoy the confidence in your builds!

[@Stuttsis]

You got me some ideas on how I can start building this. I found a perfect pipe for it but I didn´t know how I would do the rest. Thank you for making it easier for me. You got the proportions down perfectly and it looks really beautiful.

[@CalebFaulkner]

Phenomenal work, Odin! I'm feeling the inspiration.

[@StudioLinkSketchit]

Wow! This is really nicely made! Great work!

[@cdoconn]

I found this to be the best replica that has been made. The only thing I would have down was found a way to have the shoulder of the keyblade the exact size as the blade, but with a turned in edge that matched the game a little better

[@elle_khearts]

You sir, is *hands down* AWESOME 💜

[@kevgtw]

Wow Odin.. that is amazing!! I am a huge Kingdom Hearts fan and I have to say, what you made is amazing! I hope you get very, VERY big one day, and that people will see your incredible work. I would try to make this, but I know I would mess up, and I really do not feel like having to go out and buy materials. XD But keep up the amazing work Odin! Can't wait to tell everyone that I knew you since 500 subscribers. :)

[@NiiKEMAN]

Like how he puts it on his shoulder at the end. Nice touch

[@paulgreen939]

Before I looked at your subscriber count, judging by the quality of your content, I assumed you had at least 100k, minimum. When I saw you didn't even have 1,000, I immediately subscribed. Keep doing what you're doing! You'll get the audience you deserve in no time!

[@OdinMakes]

Paul Green Thank you sir!

[@IDVTuber]

It'd be cool to see a video of Riku's Way to the Dawn Keyblade.

[@exeledusprince9165]

this video just happened to play because I was letting my phone play videos while I play kingdom hearts. this is awesome, I'm glad I got to see your work!

[@OdinMakes]

Praise the phone gods!

[@danrazer1261]

This guy's gonna get big, and i can't wait to say that I'll have known him way back when he had 500 subs. Keep at it man :D

[@calluum_]

hes already fairly well known if you watch diy prop shop

[@ironblazer4565]

Danrazer cant wait to say i know him from when he was at 1k

[@osmosisjones6267]

Iron Blazer456 at least 50k have know him from before that, if not a couple hundred thousand

[@Niiue]

he now has 500k congrats, you are before 499,500 other subscribers.

[@superdrifter-1773]

Mega made it to 500k subs , halfway there

[@gameisisheartworx4957]

This was awesome,kh is one of my favorite series

[@HigorSD]

Nice work, as always! You're really good, man.

[@kejow.]

I think this one is the best DIY I've seen for the Kingdom Key

[@OdinMakes]

kejow We shot this build over two days. So, how long? A weekend- it does take longer to shoot a build than to just build it. If I had all the parts ready I could make another in a day, depending on weather and the paint drying. And thank you for the wonderful compliment!

[@KeyofTime15]

Excellently done good sir!

[@celticwolff5429]

I am so glad when he points out things he finds he should have done. It shows he is more interested in doing a good job than looking perfect. Also, when I use hockey tape on hockey sticks, I just twist the tape into a rope and wind it around the shaft then cover with the tape. Like he says, there are many different ways to make things.

[@flipnoteSquarePuP]

It's so beautiful!!! :,) Finally someone who made it look legit! ^^

[@weaboolin2809]

thank you for being a nice and likeable guy making amazing things

[@xxscribbledragonxx9744]

I'm watching this for the handle bc I'm making mine and I'm so happy that mines actually pretty canon looking!! It's my first time ever making a prop and I'm so happy it's going well!!!! Thanks so much dude :D

[@OdinMakes]

You are very welcome!!

[@Razorroseart]

I'm absolutely going to try and make one

[@emeewoks]

Best kingdom key I've seen! :)

my heart is just beating faster! Great Job!!!

[@ghostninja2099]

SO helpful vidoes keep up the great work Odin

[@Tiro1000]

Awesome project Odin! If you are looking to make more cool video game swords, Squall's Lionheart gunblade from Final Fantasy VIII is my suggestion.

[@joeyfowler3779]

I always play kingdom hearts and that was amazing Odin

[@dannykey3741]

The Keyblade you made is Video Game accurate and I love it.

[@alexmartin249]

Beautiful.

[@alexisohanyan2427]

awesome job!

[@jasminemasterss5417]

Oh man this channel seem so cool! *Subbed*

[@nikosalad256]

This is great for a safe and lightweight alternative to the one Man at Work did, nice job!

[@Liz-di9yg]

Thank you so much! This will help me Make Rainfall Aquas keyblade for a cosplay

[@j3ster341]

I actually made my own based off your video back in 2018 (meant to comment sooner but forgot lol) it wasn’t perfect lol but it came out really well and I went to a con and everyone thought it was cool and I direct them to your channel thanks for making this video

[@mmileymiley15]

This is so cool man

[@feefers1428]

This is so cool!

[@yoshipunch1535]

Just went to GameStop yesterday. They had a Kingdom Key for sale, and it was super light. Looked super cool! Around $20, I think.

[@jaredtibayan7157]

Thanks for making my keyblade I appreciate it .

[@flash5176]

Awesome video man, can't believe you only have 600 subs

[@mikelegend2729]

THIS IS SO COOL

[@Yurax13]

Hey Odin, maybe a tip for in the future. Fill up the seams on the keyblade. It's just a small detail, it still looks amazing(:

[@An_Actual_Ditto]

Holy shit, this is absolutely amazing!

[@microswords3682]

Made perfectly!

[@treyskits3498]

This is awesome

[@sevinvii1530]

Oh my god! This is SO amazing!!! I've never seen a more realistic kingdom key! You should try to do Widowmaker's Sniper Rifle from Overwatch!

[@melon934]

awesome keyblade^^

[@rootedcorgi7742]

Thank you I was planning to make one for someone

[@devinthedoctor]

I feel you do better on your own than AWE me I hope your channel goes big because your awesome at DIYs

[@bakufan0658]

[@MrDemdemsitar]

[@XxTHExKILLRxX]

Holy crap you are good , cant wait for you to reach 1 million subs :D

[@legendarymoji]

1000th Like!!! So glad I came across this channel, great vid 👍🏼

[@nobiggie7786]

Realize I'm a year and change late, but what size hole saw bits did you use? I'm making Keyblades for my friends and I since Kingdom Hearts 3 is soon, but I'm getting stuck on a few parts yet

[@HamzaAnsari1425]

[@D2Kprime]

Which song on Audiobooks is playing @4:42 till the end? BTW, I actually like this one better than the one done over at Man-At-Arms.

[@kayceecampos4886]

Can you make Kairi's Keyblade (Destiny's Embrace) from Kingdom Hearts? Love your works and would love to see one about this!

[@receitando8493]

Perfect

[@jontioneill2225]

I love the keyblade you made it's really amazing. think you can do a couple clips on how to make a couple keyblades? I'm trying to figure out how to make a oakskeeper keyblade, oblivion kyblade and a tron legacy keyblade. Think you can do a clip of those keyblades so I can understand what stuff I needed to make them?

[@The_13th_Voyager]

I may be late for requests, but could you try making the Oathkeeper Keyblade? I'm curious how you'l handle the shape of the actual blade portion.

[@InkblotHyena]

I'm sorry, but I just couldn't stop humming Simple & Clean as I watched the first time, so I had to watch it again to actually follow the instructions

[@stigfan35]

how did i not find out that you had a channel earlier? i always enjoyed you on D.I.Y prop shop and only just found out that you had a channel So awesome :) i would love to see you try and make Ash Williams boomstick from the evil dead series

[@GamingASMR_x]

I can't believe you one have 1k subs I know you will get big ! and I'll be proud I subscribed at only 1k

[@CaptainDoesMinecraf1]

Odin can you make a tools of the trade video where you showcase all your power tools, tools, etc. im starting to save up to buy a scroll saw, bench sander, etc so i want to know which brands you use.

[@lanceryazzie3663]

Hi Odin my name is Lance Yazzie and I love all your videos especially the video of the Kingdom key from Kingdom Hearts I wish I would make one just like yours someday and Odin ( May your Heart be your guiding key )

[@antii_fame5163]

Awesome

[@exoticeagle3276]

Nice video! I'm your new subscriber. I really want that Keyblade! :)

[@keauntebishop8]

I've wanted one bad for years now

[@Thesakuraharona]

What would you recommend to someone who does not have the tools shown? (I.e. grinder, the high powered saws)

[@calluum_]

you should have so many more subs odin

[@infamouspilgrim213]

Odin Makes: Me a Sandwich

[@OdinMakes]

Infamous Pilgrim21 did you like your sandwich?

[@infamouspilgrim213]

Odin Makes Yeah! The video was hilarious!

[@elukyr307]

Infamous Pilgrim21 Would you make me a sandwich? no

[@JaydenHamilton1945]

That looks exactly like the keyblades I see at gamestop! Do you make a bunch of these and then sell them?

[@faithdefool2737]

that's a good ones

[@spectacularwade]

Ugghhhhh this is so cool i want one

[@xDigitalMonster]

This is so cool! Do you do commissions?

[@JoeNduja]

Do the Oblivion Keyblade too, please!

[@yubeluchiha]

New here I like how you got the size right as the real weapon can you make squall gunblade from Final Fantasy 8

[@zerobadideas]

man, where was this video 10 years ago when i made a keyblade out of cardboard and a dowel? i wanted to make many keyblades, but after the defeat of the first one, i gave up. maybe i'll try again.

[@DiakuKoi]

I want to 3d design of a key blade from a image I found online but it's tricky to do and it's hard to figure out the shape on a 2d image and making it 3d

[@gameenthusiast962]

Odin, please make the Infinity Gauntlet. I really want to see how you make one.

[@notsotinytim4671]

Where do you cut on the blueprints in order to get this right

[@blaynestein9441]

I would KILL to see him make vanitis's red and black void gear, no name, and winning proof

[@luna_in_japan]

OMG soooo beautifull😍😍😍 I wish mine would look like that xD
