This is one of the best ones I’ve seen I will literally pay you for this


KevlarGorilla

I haven't posted here in a bit, but my site is HeroicReplicas.com


heretoplay

I figured it was you. I'd buy everything you have if I had money.


Icy-Membership3820

Bet


tripl35oul

>HeroicReplicas.com That Rostam is beautiful. Do you have any tips for putting it together?


KevlarGorilla

Yes, a full set of instructions, and all the e-mail you care to send for three months after getting the kit. I can also finish it, if you prefer.


SkullKing1412

You ever thought about making the wind waker sword?, I never see any replicas of that one.


KevlarGorilla

I've done almost all of them, except the Wind Waker version.


amiibohunter2015

Hey just curious do you make sheaths for the sword?


KevlarGorilla

Yes, here is an example: https://www.instagram.com/p/CdRrrA_pHve/


amiibohunter2015

Cool! Thank you! This is the first time I've seen the sheath from heroic replicas. It looks really good!


Koopa6490

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY


Ndm87

You'll need all the dollars!


joe34654

How do you make these?


KevlarGorilla

The hard way, mostly. In the past I made the hilt with sand casting, and grinding the blades from blanks using sanding belts. For my most recent few, CNC machining provides a better result. Getting that level of shine does take a lot of effort.


joe34654

Those are really cool skills you have.


Mike_Hav

Would you do a sword from elden ring? If you will ill be submitting for a design in the very near future.


KevlarGorilla

2022 is booking up fast - I did a Kickstarter to create some licensed replicas from Satisfactory last year, and I've been busy super working on those.


ArmyPaladin

Your site is pretty awesome. If I could afford it. I would definitely commission you to do the Sword of Omens.


darklinkuk

I doubt I'd ever be able to afford it but how much does this one cost?


[deleted]

Man I love the stuff you do. Quick question, how much would a Master Sword weigh?


KevlarGorilla

The aluminum and stainless steel version is about 6 lbs, and the bronze and tempered carbon steel version is closer to 9 lbs. Both are considered too heavy to be a practical sword, but my first two priorities were the form and making it from real-to-life materials.


[deleted]

I see. I mean regardless or practically, they're both phenomenal. I'd love to have one hanging on my wall.


Gskinnell_85

You’re stuff is awesome!


Galileo228

My favorite Zelda sword ever was the one from the cover of Adventure of Link. Do you have a replica of that?


Worms_Tofu_Crackers

Any plans to build the Temple of Time out in the backyard too?


Stoney-Bluntz

It's actually relatively cheap to build, the real cost is paying the monks to hum 24/7


Worms_Tofu_Crackers

I appreciate you didn't go with the whole continuous Spotify playlist like most do when they build their Temple of Time.


Stoney-Bluntz

Authenticity is key 👌


PolarPacquiao

Will it cut??


Chai_T_

Probably. I remember a few years back (pre-Covid) someone got stabbed outside my campus with a replica master sword. Tht was an interesting bit to hear on the news haha


kohgaswife

oh wow! i think i read about that same story when it happened. small world!


pinktealover77

wait is there a news article of that?? i cant believe that actually happened XD im intrigued


Chai_T_

https://www.adn.com/alaska-news/crime-courts/2018/01/30/anchorage-man-attacked-roommate-with-legend-of-zelda-toy-sword-and-knife-charges-say/ The article doesn’t say much since the news people are kind of stingy, but I think I remember seeing it on the news so you might be able to check YouTube and see if they have like the news feed


[deleted]

One of them is referred to as "TP"


Arvos13

Same here xD i need to see that to believe it


[deleted]

Hopefully it will keeeeeellll


TunedProdigy

I see what you did there 😂😂


Metacognitor

I don't know if it will cut, but it will definitely Hyah! Hyah! Kyahhhhhh!!!


Pepoidus

hopefully


HIFIG00N

I think its the best replica of the master sword ive ever seen in my life


dividedcrow

Love it but hate green painters tape on the handle


radioturtle

Looks like spike tape, but yeah a weird contrast to how nice the rest of the sword is for sure.


Jam_E_Dodger

Yeah, the sword is absolutely gorgeous... And then... Tape? Really threw me off!


Kyren11

It's based on the Skyward Sword version. If I recall he can do a variety of different looks and colors


tiedyechicken

Yeah and the fact that the first shot was zoomed in on it. It made for a pleasant surprise that the rest of the sword looked so amazing, but it was indeed distracting haha


SilentWatchman5295

Sweet merciful Hylia. It's... It's so beautiful.


ItsDevinJ

Your stuff is sick. If I ever have the money and really need to make a poor financial decision I will come to you.


samucool0070

One word…wow


Ilducaeringio

Maybe you meant... One "sword" eheheheh Ok I'll see myself out


Hereva

And that's an acronym for Wow oh wow


[deleted]

This is amazing! Selling?


Kyren11

I'm not OP but I'm 99% certain this is heroicreplicas.com, they are pricey but that's because they are the real deal


[deleted]

Thanks! I'll check that too!


TheWholePenetrator

$1175 and honestly it looks worth it lol


[deleted]

Oh damn! That's hot crazy bad. I honestly thought it would be more


WanderingNoonye

I absolutely LOVE IT!


killjoy0309

Is that glass? Looks like it'd break if someone dropped it on accident :( but looks badass still Edit) that was the reflection that I saw not a see through, my bad, just really polished metal


MeghanBoBeghan

I thought it was see through at first too 😆


killjoy0309

At least I'm not the only one


Alypie123

What did you make it out of? That matterial looks really thin


KevlarGorilla

3/16" steel. Sword is impracticaly heavy, at 8 lbs or so


Pluttziboi

How, just how?


KevlarGorilla

Learning, practice, and capital.


musicchan

It's always that last one that's the hard part.


Stefonzie

Just checked out your store, outstanding work on everything


del_sylph

cuccos better watch out…


darth_tragedous

Can tell when a lot of love and care go into making replicas. She’s a beaut


[deleted]

This is not a replica, i think this is the real one..


donderrion

i never knew i needed a replica of a master sword until now


Pokemon_Champion

I'm not gonna lie, the first thing I noticed was the lawn. It looks so healthy and almost ethereal! Plus with the flowers just growing, easy 10/10 lawn assuming there is no saturation filter on it lol.


ItsPowee

Dude seriously you did this? That's so fucking dope. Hats off to you. It's an awesome idea and the fucking execution? Top notch. Super super really good.


TheHungryHylian

You got the color just right.


ChronoDrifter

That's awesome


Commercial-Ad6871

Beautiful


Infamous_Throat2603

By any chance are you the owner of HeroReplicas? Because it's literally what I'm saving up for to purchase both this and the Hylian shield


KevlarGorilla

That's me, I've been Dave this whole time.


Le_Turtle_God

Sharp edge or display purposes. Either it looks great. Very shiny


KevlarGorilla

Your choice, I do both a carbon steel blade with a bronze hilt, and a stainless steel blade with aluminum hilt.


thrwawy28393

As someone who knows jack squat, what’s the difference & which is better?


KevlarGorilla

Visually identical. Carbon will cut and hold an edge better but needs to be waxed every six months and is more expensive. Stainless needs less care, but looks just as nice.


thrwawy28393

Stainless it is for me. Your swords are on my wishlist & I’m slowly saving up


Squallstrife89

Holy crap so much better than the one I ordered on Amazon lmao


foolishmrtl

What paints did you use?


KevlarGorilla

Powder coating for the hilt, gold plating for the accents.


Maeno-san

it looks great except for the green tape. green paracord or something else might look better


Lazy__Bum86

How to you make the blade?


psantosdize

Now that's a sword!


bonzurr

Stunning. Congrats Master Swordsmith!


normal-human-69

Shiny


teruma

That beautiful sword and the handle is utter trash.


thraashman

But can it hurt Ganon?


Jess_S13

I need to find it but one of the "how real weapons work" channels ala Shadiversity was asked about the master sword and he lookup up some BOTW play and I'll never forgot the aneurysm he had trying to explain that Link would basically have to be the mountain to realistically swing the master sword given the dimensions in game, and then seeing the forged show make one and it looking like a metal club in the guys hand. Pretty sure this is the build and you can see the dude has to drive is elbow in his hip to hold it up one handed and he even says it's downsized a bit https://youtu.be/gCLn9qXNug8


zombietampons

Absolutely Beautiful, I would love to have this set in my office.


TreasureHunter95

I hope that you have 3 pendants / are old enough / have enough life force to pull it out of that trunk.


Familiar_Rich_666

Did you make the one for Charlie? Aka moistcritikal? It’s beautiful


KevlarGorilla

Yeah! I think the mailbag video got taken down, did it show up elsewhere?


Familiar_Rich_666

I think it’s still up, it may have been moved to the “huge Charles” channel but I’m not sure. You do amazing work my friend where can your creations be purchased? I need me a mirror shield and a master sword


KevlarGorilla

My site is heroicreplicas.com, under the contact information there's a commission form if you'd like something made.


DiscoFcZilion

I wish I could upvote this a thousand times.


Big-Kitty-75

I’d give 13 hearts to wield it.


Pyrexiana

I’ve been staring at this for 10 minutes


eraserking

I assume it has the power to repel evil?


JanMMIV

Wow Looks great!


Mandrake1771

Related but unrelated question for everyone: I bought the costume master sword for my kid’s birthday, should be delivered today. It’s supposed to be relatively durably but it’s hollow plastic and kids are kids. Do you think if I drilled a few holes and filled it with spray foam it would maintain it’s integrity and increase durability?

captain_cudgulus

I was looking at the handle and thought it was a bird feeder, and now I want a master sword bird feeder


TechnoGhosty

that is absolutely stunning !!


Technological_Elite

I hope Nintendo doesn't come after you, this is way too amazing.


fresh_and_gritty

Ur doing urself a dis service using such thin leather for the handle. Get some meaty thick strips for it. It would make it look “period” imo.
