Fallout's Flaming Sword, Recreated in Real Life
Debuting in Fallout 3, the Shishkebab is, at its most basic level, a sword made of junk that’s on fire. In honor of the blade’s return in Fallout 4, a fan decided to make a real one. It went terrifyingly well.
Blacksmiths Forge Skyrim Helmet, Shoot At It
This Skyrim helmet isn't just for show. It's tough! It could probably actually save your life, should you ever be in everyday situations like "someone is swinging an actual sword at my head," or "someone is shooting actual arrows at my head."

You might not be able to fire blanks from this Gunblade recreation like Squall does, but that sure doesn't make the weapon any less deadly. It is, after all, still a sharp blade!
Real-Life Sword Art Online Blade Cuts Watermelons, Not Bosses

The Sword Pokémon, Now As A Real (And Dangerous) Weapon

He Forged Wolverine's Claws. Then, He Cut Stuff With Them.
While we'll feature a profile on the prolific blacksmith Tony Swatton later this week, for now you get to watch him make the type of Wolverine claws that you wouldn't be able to take anywhere near a convention. These puppies are sharp—at one point during the "smash stuff" section by AweMeChannel, they cut through…
He Forged Cloud's Buster Sword. Then, He Cut Stuff With It.
Man At Arms' Tony Swatton has forged all sorts of nerdy swords. It was only a matter of time before he turned to Final Fantasy—specifically, Cloud's iconic sword. And boy howdy, is the Buster sword huge and unwieldy.
He Forged Captain America's Shield. Then, He Bashed Stuff Against It.
After the Minecraft sword and Kingdom Hearts keyblade, you'd think that Man At Arms' Tony Swatton is only interested in straight-up weapons. Not so! He can forge shields too. Shields...which also double as weapons.
