@@LJ-ej3fv only he got drunk and screwed everything and everyone in greek mythology.. my favourite quote to this day is probably this one: Everyone, both mortal and immortal, called him father - both to represent his status and because in ancient Greece there was a 30% chance that Zeus actually sired you. Zeus cheated on his wife Hera constantly, and the sex didn’t need to be consensual - once he decided to fuck a woman, he was going to fuck her, and if he had to be a swan, a bull or a golden shower of light to do it, he didn’t care.

[@Pijawek]

When it comes to blade steels, 440, especially 440c isn't that bad. Of course for knives - using stainless, even good quality SS, for a sword is a daft idea since they usually afe prone to breaking. If you want to go cheap hou go for 420A. Thos is the steel that's used on 99% of cheap chinesee swords. Cheap carbon steels, like NCV3, on the other hand, arn't thad bad, you could make a decent knofe from them

The Attack on Titan swords DO have disposable blades, which are replaced by using the lever to detach the old one, and then replacing the blade with a different one from the scabbard that has several. Anime is creatively weird.

[@many_lives4925]

Except the lever is more of a break mechanism to control their speed. The actual ejection part is located more by their thumb and acts like it would on a gun to eject used bullets....only in this case for used blades.

I love how your knowledge allows you to basically describe the exact thing that happens in Attack on Titan with when those blades are used. And it makes me happy that the animators realized that blades like that would break. Or maybe it was just aesthetic choice. I would like to believe they did research.

[@scottrauch1261]

I believe its on purpose in the show, since the goal is a relatively shallow cut on the neck, they can keep the section they need to cut with sharp by breaking off the dulled tip. Idk for sure, never watched the show, just seen pics and have a friend that talks about it.

[@ParboleumLoyce]

Basically, they need to cut a specific chunk out of the titans' necks to kill them and instead of making super durable blades but also sharpen them, they just make cheap ones and replace them all the time.

[@enforcerridley158]

Not quite. The blades are made of a high quality yet rare metal known as "Ultrahard steel" that is necessary for slicing into titans, so it's illegal to use said metal to produce anything else. The blades are very sharp, but a titan's hide is very tough, so each use of the blade cause damage and dullness. The blades are designed to break off the dull parts like a box-cutter knife for maximum efficiency. The blades are also easily detachable from the hilt with the push of a button. This is why each sheath contains around 6 (4 in the anime) blades. To contrast, standard broadswords were used in decades past, but were entirely useless against Titans.

You understood the functionality of sword at 8:55 almost perfectly. Its sword from attack on titan. Blade is ment to be snapped when it gets dull as only way to kill titan is to cut off piece from neck so the instant you have dull blade you are doomed. Triggers shoot hooks so you can reach the neck. I suppose that means it has good design as person without knowing anything about it undetstood it.

[@roodbwo169]

not just when it gets dull which is a factor to it but the main reason i think was so the blades actually stayed inside the titan to slow down their regeneration

At least that's what I get from a show that I have no idea as to what is going on. lol

[@vynonyoutube1418]

I watch RWBY, and if you want details, here you go: The sword (well, rapier to be exact) is called Myrtenaster and it's the weapon used by Weiss Schnee (the girl in my profile pic at the time of this comment), one of the main characters. The revolver thing is for the rapier to be able to use Dust (pretty much minerals with magical properties) rounds, which either enchant the blade with the Dust round's specific element (Dust is of multiple elements, like fire, gravity, etc.) or enchant her Semblance (special abilities that are unique for every character, pretty much like the Quirks from My Hero Academia), which, in her case, are glyphs with a decent variety of effects (which is boosted by the fact that she combines it with Myrtlenaster's Dust rounds).

There's a spear that looks like a double corkscrew that's been run over, and one of the swords has a fatter tip with a hole through it, like they found a giant needle, hammered it flat and put a grip on the point.

That future dragon space fantasy sword is Wiess' Myrtinaster from RWBY. The cylinder type guard is actually a revolving cylinder like a gun that has "dust" cartridges in it so she can perform magic with the sword. The deadly alliance sword is of course the swords from the ODM gear in Attack on Titan. The handle bar brake type thing is actually to switch out the box cutter like blades when they have become to dull to cut through giant's spines and the two other guards are for operating the Omni Directional Maneuverability Gear that allows the fighters to swing in from buildings to hit the giant's necks. The guys at Baltimore Knife and Sword made both of these swords for episodes of Man at Arms: Reforged.

[@JustClaude13]

The Deadly Alliance sword has brake levers to stop the attack once you reach the giants. The Craved Dragon swords look like the handles are also the scabbards. They fit together. I tried to look it up, and when I typed "Weapons Uni" the second suggestion was "weapons universe scam". That inspires confidence.

[@thomascollins5622]

7:25 SAO Excalibur compared to Power Rangers weapons? THAT, my friends, is the ultimate criticism of the series. Thank you Skal!

[@jocelinarene1951]

At 8:20 the sword you said who was surely inspired by Something is clearly Dracule Mihawk's sword from the manga One Piece (also the exact same sword at 11:30) Excellent video, really fun as always ^^

[@tiredtortoise3396]

Yeah, that's definitely meant to be Mihawk's Kokuto Yoru, such a ludicrous looking sword (even more ludicrous in the anime than this imitation of course) but I love it so much.

[@mickepersson7733]

Fucking weebs

[@tiredtortoise3396]

How impolite.

[@jocelinarene1951]

Quite

[@DESTRUCT0NAT0R]

Grumpy Squat I laughed when he mentioned the size of the guard. If only he knew...

[@neddubh4529]

the cringe face at 1:32 is why I'm still subbed 4 years later.

[@arrannightsword4756]

'Future Dragon Space Fantasy Sword'. Wow, I never realized that Weiss Schnee had anything to do with the future or dragons for that matter.

[@cebenify]

hello Myrtenaster. The tree ornament is from RWBY. the weapons only get stranger.

[@Practitioner_of_Diogenes]

Well, you're not wrong. Except Jaune's. That one could almost pass as an actual sword.

[@LoremasterYnTaris]

Yeah, probably the most practical weapon for a layman on the show. Even so, it's a little iffy (especially after the modifications in season 4).

[@Practitioner_of_Diogenes]

Oh, the volume 4 changes to it make it into a broad sword instead of an arming sword. That version of the blade is boarding on impractical, considering its guard is gone to waste (Not to mention the shield's weight is added to the sword, making it heavier than it should be).

[@vanhelsingfan1]

"These kids just keep getting weirder."

[@LoremasterYnTaris]

On top of that, the blade becomes almost twice as fat. No matter how sharp or heavy it is, that's a lot more difficult to cut with. Also, even more small, inherently delicate moving parts to repair and maintain. Not good.

[@CrystallizedBlackSkull]

"It has a gun in there aswell" In a way you're not wrong

[@J--12]

This is pure comedy, i wish you did this kind of videos more often.

[@TheMorbidHobo]

The one with the huge crossguard is from One Piece.

[@Vamtyr]

I remember being a kid and liking those sort of "swords". Now I've watched your videos and got into HEMA, they are embarrassing

[@julietfischer5056]

You didn't know anything about swords except that they were cool. Now you know what makes them cool, so you can snicker at the silly ones.

[@rawovunlapin8201]

Jason Merry now knowing at least the basic functionality of swords and what they should look like to achieve the desired results, I can look back at my sketches from years ago in horror and shame.

[@esthera3923]

8:30 I think it’s supposed to be Weiss’ sword from RWBY?

[@BramLastname]

Definitely, The description mentions a revolving cylinder, Which is definitely the ammo chamber.

[@steelcladCompliant]

How could you ever doubt their craftsmanship?? "Quality incarnate", it says so right there in each description! Could hardly be more clear

[@TheLastRhapsody]

Pretty sure the tribal mage sword is one of Katarina’s daggers from League of Legends.

[@theangledsaxon6765]

TheLastRhapsody correct

[@ironblade5735]

Ahh, glorious Skall rant!

[@ABaumstumpf]

They make cheap Shit. looks great on photo, but you do not want to hang them on your wall - or own at all.

[@iuserprofile]

Only that it obviously doesn't look great on photo XD.

[@americancheese9103]

iUserProfile Dude it's 2018 stop saying XD

Sorry mate ^^.

[@Kriegerherz]

„More of a tree ornament than a sword.“ Oh im gonna save that one for my Landsknecht at the next Con, when I have to deal again with Elves and alike and their „high fantasy“ stuff.

[@deskins6337]

You just made 5000 boys spontaneously combust in their grandma's basement

[@pgp555]

8:16 im guessing its from one piece. 8:29 look like a RWBY weapon

[@cherrydragon3120]

8:29 is an imitation of weiss her weapon from RWBY yes

[@ArcherOakwulf]

8:16 is from one piece, Dracule Mihawks sword, although it should be a gold guard and pommel white a black blade.

[@ArcherOakwulf]

*with a black blade

[@n.v5969]

8:29 is myrtenaster, and its kinda more of a gun with a blade than an actual sword. it's magic, and its a fucking ranged weapon, which is why the guard is so retarded. it shoots magic, and it has fuck all to do with "future dragon sword" or whatever word salad they called it.

[@Starry_Wave]

Dracule Mihawk's sword is called "Yoru" in One Piece. It is one of the twelve "Saijo O Wazamono". The highest grade of swords (Meito) in the story. It's heavily inspired by the German messer, which is one of the best swords out there in terms of cutting power alone and it shows, since it's Skallagrim's favorite sword to this day. Who knows, maybe that's why Eiichiro Oda based it as the "strongest sword in the world", which is fitting for the "strongest swordsman in the world", who is none other than Dracule Mihawk, of course. onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Yoru en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messer_(weapon)

[@michaelpettersson4919]

In defence of some weird weapons is the idea that in a post apocalyptic world you may have to do with what is available. Want a sword? All you have to work with is a piece of scrap metal. Somehow make a sword of it.

[@richariot8325]

Weiss rapier appears "Future Dragon Space Fantasy Sword"

[@Tube_Chaser]

Get one of these for testing

[@HowToPnP]

so 40$ fot 2 Swords and 2 Knifes ... pure quality!

[@LarkinKK]

QUALITY INCARNATE

[@Adagamante]

It's like those descriptions were begging for someone to shit on them...

[@phatbassanchor]

Dude! You gotta make more of these! LMAO. Haven't had this good of a laugh in a loooooooooooong time

[@MrMoz94]

First sponsored content i've actually ever been interested in, might actually go check those audiobooks out!

[@frosthammer917]

The sword at 8:20 looked very similar to Dracule Mihawk's sword Yoru. I mean the colours are off but it looks very similar otherwise. Edit: The anime is called One Piece for those who haven't heard of it.

[@bjarnivalur6330]

8:25 That looks like a mix between a lance and a rapier

[@biteme9316]

It's a weapon from RWBY they knocked off.

[@Plankensen]

Its kind of how its used too

[@lanceswanson1712]

The "greatsword" only needs a threaded pommel to end someone rightly

[@Arkie80]

'Can be used to attract all sorts of attention'...like from the cops.

[@the_rogue2824]

You need to do more of these videos.

[@angelmarques3124]

So... I’m probably missing some pf them, but here it goes: 1:30 halo, obviously, he says it 5:44, also obvious, it’s the Master Sword, from Zelda 7:24 not too sure about this one, but it seems like kirito’s swords in ALO (sword art online/SAO 2nd season chapters 13-24 if memory and logic serve me right) but in green (i’d swear his are black) 7:58 (I just feel like I have to point it out) to the right of the sword he clicks on, upper layer, the one at the right is Kirito’s Elucidator, from SAO. ALSO, the one under that one, lower layer to the right, resembles the Scissor Swords in Kill la Kill 8:06 that looks like the sword Eugene uses in ALO (SAO again) but way thinner. (Not too sure about this one either, it’s been a long time since I watched SAO) 8:13 and 11:30 I haven’t seen the anime, but I think there’s that kind of sword in One Piece, but can’t say for sure 8:26 that’s Weiss Schnee’s weapon from RWBY, I’m not sure if it has a name. It’s kind of an estoc or more like a rapier, so it’s a thrusting sword. (Personal recommendation here, I really liked RWBY when I watched it, it’s got some awesome (probably non-practical) weapons and is a series animated in 3d by Rooster Teeth, so it’s english, not japanese. Still, i really think it’s a good series and interesting to watch) 8:55 another obvious one, probably the most out of all, it’s a recreation of the swords used in Attack on Titan/Shingeki no Kyojin. The blade can deattach (not sure if that’s how it’s written) (because the blades tend to get dulled pretty easily, altho they are supposedly REALLY hard, but, you know, titan flesh and all that) and the handle has controls for the 3 dimensional movement gear they use, so that’s what everything on the handle is for (the string connects the sword to the gear) 12:37 again, SAO, it looks kinda like kirito’s dark repulsor (the blue sword Lisbeth crafts for him which he only uses when going double swords style) 13:54 I’ve no idea what that one’s about, i’m not particularly a fan of LOL, but since he mentioned it, i’m writing it down. So... sorry for the long comment and maybe expanding myself to much on some swords and please correct me if i got anything wrong or you see any other weapon from an anime/game/series/whatever. And there may be some mistakes on the writing, so I apologize for those too.

[@spencerfranks8328]

2:25 Is Katarina's Dagger from league of legends 13:54 I think is Sol from Fire Emblem but I'm not sure

[@zigmoph9517]

8:13 (the crossguard) and 11:30 is from One Piece; it's Dracule Mihawk's sword, Yoru.

[@robertyoung1317]

Thank you for recognising Kirito's Elucidator and not calling it Excalibur... Two completely different swords. Wouldn't suprise me if there were an Excalibur in SAO however I dont recall it. Again thank you for being correct about Elucidator.

[@TacticalGlizzy]

13:54 kinda looks like Xenoblade

[@MITCHIE_LAPIZ]

12:37 nah i think it's supposed to be Eugeo's Blue Rose Sword. well. the name at least.

[@Bayle13]

I liked this video man, pretty fun to poke fun at these weapons. I feel like its weird when fantasy creates weapons that are just insanely impractical. Simultaneously I don't put much thought into my books when it comes to historic weapons. I think there is a healthy balance between realism and creativity

[@emceeunderdogrising]

I laughed out loud when I saw the mega dagger. Completely contradicts itself and it's hilarious.

[@freyadraginda-burnett9781]

Skall at 8:35 its supposed to be a rapier. its from a show called RWBY. i dont recommend you watch it, the weapons will give you an anyeurism. that "rapier" is probably one of the more reasonable weapons

[@vynonyoutube1418]

ironic how Jaune sucks ass at combat, yet his weapon (well, pre-upgrade at least) is the most practical out of them lol. I'd love to see Skall's reaction to Crescent Rose tho lol

[@piippiz]

5:51 "A weapon that a master could have lying somewhere possibly"

[@johnmorey720]

I'd honestly love to see Skallagrim try to come to terms with the weird, weird, weird weapons from the Battle Beast toys. Some of them are normalish. Most are... like wielding a moose antler.

[@jamesoblivion]

"Based on the popular Majestic trend" seems to be code for "a Halo knockoff."

[@niccolomachiavelli1512]

Need more of this type of vid. It’s bloody brilliant.
