If we go by real life historical specifications, Jon Snow's Longclaw is actually a bastard sword because of it's hand and a half hilt and Ned Stark's Ice is actually a longsword for it's exclusive usage for two hands. Greatswords in real life are about as tall as the user, if not taller, and have a hilt measuring up to about the same size as length of their backs.

Haha Yeah, it's a Black Wolf - a fox would be quite a bit smaller. I'm glad you like it... I just hope it turns out well! And I was wondering the same thing about the grip, but I don't think the sword is meant to be handed. I'm curious why the grip isn't symmetrical, b/c I assume the block of wood was machine lathed; which should create consistency.

[@MrReded69]

A scabbard made out of a wolf pelt? Not to smart for Lord Stark to walk around with while surrounded by his children's Direwolves! Funny thing is, the company's 'book' version looks like something Hollywood would come up with with its pretty white handle and silvery appearance while the show version looks like I pictured it looking like when I read the book back in the 90s: functional, heavy, grim and not pretty! A weapon for battle and execution not parades.

[@ModernCollector]

The entire Stark family should be super careful! They're all wearing wolf or fox furs on their collars! Oh wait... never mind... Lol I agree, their book versions are beautiful but look a bit cartoonish/unrealistic and it's why I've waited for the show versions which I feel are still beautiful and functionally designed.

[@Binks129]

Was debating on getting this or Longclaw and I'm glad I'm going with Long Claw. The Ice is an amazing replica, but for some reason, i don't know why, maybe I'm crazy or my eyes don't work... but it doesn't look as wide as it is in the Show, nor as Long. Long claw looks like someone snuck into Kit's prop room and stole it xD I wanted Damascus but sadly they are sold out :( But Stainless fits more of the "Never needing maintenance" idea of Valyrian steel so i guess thats a bonus :)

[@noneofyourbeeswax01]

" it doesn't look as wide as it is in the Show, nor as Long" Bear in mind that when directors want to make an impressive prop look even more impressive, they can employ a number of filming techniques that add drama, making them look larger than they are in life.

[@alexanderthegreat1378]

I wish they’d make a Crown of Winter replica

[@bearling477]

Very dissapointing, the length of these swords. Longclaw is too short and lacks the three fullers, and ice doesnt even seem to be the same size as the movie prop (when ice reappears in season 4, it also looks smaller). I also dont know who is making these swords for them, but 9lbs is double what the sword should weigh, just baffling builds to me.

[@josephus3364]

I agree I wish they would size them correctly, but expecting them to weigh 5 lbs is ridiculous. They're light in GOT because valyrian steel is magic. A correctly sized Ice replica would easily weigh 20 lbs. Probably more. It's a huge piece of steel.

[@MrPanos2000]

you might want to research sword weights joe. 20 lbs is the weight of a parrot rifle not a sword

[@qwemlhjsi4386]

I don't think longclaw has the fullers in the show

[@MrPanos2000]

nick krigan yeah cause pattern welding such a long blade and managing a proper distal taper and balance, plus making all these fullers takes no less than 60-70 hours depending on the persons attention to detail. Then the materials would be too much too. 5 pieces of steel to be pattern welded, of a considerate size, at least 30cm each. And then you have to fire the forge. For all these hours you need steady supply of coal. That has a price too. And then the maker needs to make a profit out of it too, so the price must be high.

[@bucephalus1257]

9 pounds for a sword is ridiculous. A sword this size would ideally be around 3 pounds, maybe 4. 9 is almost insulting.

[@theolav12]

9 pounds is not a lot for a real sword. Broadsword at least.

[@bucephalus1257]

Balzsack mcdouchwad First off, what exactly are you referring to by broadsword? it's not a historical term, so which are you referring to? A basket-hilted sword? Or a scottish greatsword/claymore? A basket-hilted sword had around 3 pounds (usually less), a claymore 6 pounds (at the very most), 4.4 pounds on average. Your typical longsword had ideally had less than 3 pounds. So yes, 9 pounds is outrageously heavy for a sword.

[@UndeadTurning]

It's ceremonial, and not used for battle, so the weight is less of an issue when it was created. Lore wise, at least. Outside of that, you're right, it's pathetic.

[@stevengood1812]

I was under the impression that zweihanders were around 7-8 pounds (closer to 7) . Its not an outlandish weight for a sword historically incorrect yes. and with the sword in the Lore being Valyrian steel its probably around 5 pounds

[@rhysgarricks7854]

ModernCollector Thanks mate! Seriously thinking about starting a little collection

[@TheCoffeeNut711]

Would Ice have been practical in battle? Or is its size too much?

[@fatihalpgunduz7454]

I think its weight will be too much, even though valyrian steel is really light, in real life a sword that big wouldnt be light and useful

[@Kgula]

The Coffee Nut like Mortusdominus said there are historical examples of longer bladed swords like the claymore or the german greatsword, the weight is on the heavy side because of it's thickness but it's not that big of a deal since, for a greatsword, it's on the short side. I have to say this would have been more practical if the handle wasn't cilindrical, a better design for it is either oval, or rounded rectangular, since the cilindrical shape doesn't give you the sense of blade alignment, grabbing it near or pressing against the crossguard would help a great deal with blade alignment.

[@qwemlhjsi4386]

Valyrian steel

[@lordsanguinius3467]

what's the difference between Damascus and stainless? At least, in terms of cutting performance, and the like.

[@iojack1199]

"damascus" is usually made by forge welding high carbon and lower carbon steels to make a blade hard enough to keep and edge, but soft enough to not shatter when used. Stainless steel is usless for actual use, its to soft and can bend under the force of its own weight on impact, and break very easily making it dangerous to mess about with. anything made of stainless is a decoration only. but as far as this sword goes, that really does not matter. this is decoration only. the sword is too heavy to be fuctional, a historically accurate sword of that size is usually between 3-5 lbs, with anything over 4.5 lbs considered rather heavy. being as heavy as it is this sword would be almost uncontrolable in the cut, and its momentum would carry it much further than you want it to, putting you at risk of injuring yourself. i know 9lbs does not sound like alot, but remember that most of that mass is forward of the hilt, wich makes it feel and act like it is MUCH heavier.

[@noneofyourbeeswax01]

Damascus Steel was an invention of Middle Eastern, and later, Mediterranean Master Swordsmiths who used a particular type of Iron Ore imported from the Indian subcontinent that imbued the steel with both a hardness (without the accompanying brittleness) and sharpness not found other swords. They were much sought after - though not as rare as Valeryian Steel in Westeros - and commanded high prices. The secret to making Damascus Steel was lost however, and although various people have claimed to have rediscovered the process, it is only very recently that analysis has revealed the true nature of the original and the ability to recreate it. Stainless Steel is of course a 20th century invention.

[@hodlbun]

Nice vid, I was wondering, does Valyrian steel sell the swords that Tywin made using Ice... the ones that Jofferey and Brienne were given with the Lannister Gold handles? I want those! (or one of them) Also, you mentioned them having dull rounded edges.. is it possible to sharpen the Damascus steel so that it can be sharp as a real sword... (not that im planning on killing anyone or anything lol ;) )

[@ModernCollector]

About sharpening, I think Valyrian Steel strongly recommends against it and I haven't see anyone else attempt to do so; so I don't really know what will happen if the sword is sharpened. Also, I don't think Valyrian Steel uses the type of metal that fighting swords are made with and would cause the blade to dull quite easily. I do hear that they're going to make Oathkeeper, the sword Jamie gives to Brienne, later this fall - I'm planning on getting that one too. :)

Hello, I'm thinking about buying ice and I want something as close to the one seen on the tv show as possible, do you know if they did use Damascus steel on the show's ice?

[@ModernCollector]

I'm pretty sure they used a similar manufacturing process for the show swords. Although, they were made by a master swordsmith so those are of much higher quality than these Valyrian Steel swords. Also, if you take a look at the blade on the show, you can see that the edges of the Ice blade are sanded down to an almost "shiny" state. That being said, these are perhaps the best quality replicas you can get. Hope that helps!

where did you get the capt. america shield?!

[@EpicCheese765]

Are there any key superiorities between the Damascus and 1060 steel versions? Im looking to buy one but Im stumped on which one to get.

[@Mlgmrcatinthehat]

I am no expert but in the book describes it as a dark metal dark as smoke so youre getting a more authentic one with the Damascus.

[@ModernCollector]

Ditto to what Mlgmrcatinthehat said. The Damascus Steel one costs quite a bit more so that may factor into your purchase. I think for Ice, the Damascus Steel one looks better - but there's regular maintenance you'll need to perform on it; whereas the stainless one requires no maintenance.

[@josiahsawyer1519]

Is it real Damascus or is it stainless steel with the pattern etched in?

[@haraldharaldsson137]

Unless I'm built like the mountain eh? **googles how tall the mountain is** Actor is 6'9" and in the books he's ...8 feet in the books... Well, I'm 6'4" so I'm close to the actor :)

i would buy the stainless steel one if they ship it to portugal but portugal dont allow swords

[@ModernCollector]

Oh damn. Sorry to hear that! I guess that means you guys don't have local distributers either?

[@FraNcis93PT]

ModernCollector yep thats right! btw can you show us the progress on the wolfpelt scabbard soon? thanks :)

[@minjoe29]

Where can i get the wolf scabbard

Round Sword handles are a complete joke, you can't index the blade and know where the Blade edge is...

[@alexflygare9887]

if it doesnt need sharpening why does jon snow sharpen it when he is beyond the wall with the nights watch

[@TheBatHobbit]

+alex flygare Because he knows nothing!!!!!!

[@lost2493]

Because there trying to show the boredom they go thought

[@iMadrid11]

+alex flygare Jon is either cleaning or polishing the sword with stone.

[@AbdiiHD]

So all you'd have to do to make 'Ice' a lethal weapon is to buy a Whetstone?

[@ModernCollector]

Yup! It's sightly tempting.
