- I forge the Spartan sword from the movie 300. This is also known as a Greek Kopis sword. This particular sword design is highly refined by Hollywood from it's original Kopis design. That is why I say in the title hand forged Spartan 300 sword. This is a 2 part series. In part two I will be making a scabbard and doing a cut test! I hope you enjoy watching my videos! I am really enjoying creating them, if you have any questions about the build or would like to give me video suggestions please feel free in the comments!

Now this is true forging, no bullshit casting
Looks like a monster man! Good work. 🙌
Thank you sir!
I love big chopper knives, but I’m thinking about getting I to larger blades like this. Sweet Kopis
Thank you! This thing was super fun to build and play with!
Wow! You have your shop outfitted nicely .. digging the mill and lathe.. nice build..
Thanks Anthony! I have been steadily growing the shop for 7 years now! I felt like it would never happen in the beginning! It is getting easier and easier to fabricate stuff! Thanks for watching!
Yes, buddy! The sword came out real nice! I like the idea of using RRS for guards. Looking forward to see part 2!
Thank you! I am also starting a new forge build!
Cool build man!
Awesome, glad you stopped by!

Thank you!
Felicitaciones, saludos desde 🇨🇴 Sur 🌎. América. 😁 😁 😁
Seperti pedang yg pernah dibuat Ali Ss dari Lampung Sumatera 👍
That thing is fire man! Love the rail road spikes, they look way more accurate than my hammers lol. Watched this last night right when you uploaded, it was the perfect break from video editing. Also I'm jealous of your mill.
Your video showed me how to create the raised Ridge on the sword! It worked wonderful. Having fancy equipment doesn't replace skill level my friend. I got tired of filing guard slots so I traded a motorcycle for this milling machine. I am shocked at how much I actually use it!
@@Aleeknives Haha sounds like a good trade to me! I love my mini mill but to have a Bridgeport... man, maybe someday
Very nice 👍👍👍
Thank you!
I love it
Thank you!
Buen trabajo te felicito desde España
Thank you excellent to have you from Spain!
Gracias x contestarme sigue asi
Beauty
Thank you!
Nice job! It seems we're doing the same build on our channels! I'm a few weeks behind you though. I hope mine turns out as well. Looking forward to see how you do the scabbard. Cheers!
Thank you! The scabbard turned into a sheath! The video is live now, I would love your feedback for sure! I will be stopping by your channel tonight! Thanks for watching my videos!
Heeey, nice, I like it) and I came from your comment at Faraway forge)
Thank you! Faraway Forge is a huge inspiration to my channel. I hope you enjoy my content
Make sure you subscribe and ring the bell so you don't miss part two! I will be making a scabbard and doing an epic cutting test to show off how awesome this sword really is! Thanks for all your support
wow i think i want to make one.i only do stock removial(cant spell) will 2 inch wide do it.thanks walt.i now have 28 knives,only 4 finished..i want to try some thing new,i know i should finish things.walt..that is great!!!
I used 4 inch stock for this beast! And it was 5/8 inch thick! Monster size but I wanted that raised ridge like in the movie so start thick and grind a ton off to get that ridge and to lighten it up. Good luck Walter!
How about a 54 inch claymore? Now that would be a beast......
Yes it would!
Very good ✌️✌️😃😃❤️❤️
Thank you!
That is certainly badass and I am looking forward to seeing what kind of damage it is able to inflict. One question I have is what you are using on the leather before you wrap the handle? I really like the look of that!
Thanks man! I couldn't get the leather to lay flat around the contours of the handle so I wet it with warm water so I could stretch the leather. Let it dry, and then unwrap and glue into place. A little more work but it did come out nice!
Great job ! How can I order one ?
Gooooood good
Thank you
@@Aleeknives no broh this re good what you do and i have to tell you something ... actually i'm from argentina but i know a lot of english jajs if you want ask me something in english and i will tell you spanish hahaha
Ahooo ahoooo ahoooo.....give thanks to king leonidus and brave 300....
2am entertainment !!!
🙏😉thanks for watching!🔥🔥
hello friend, excellent work. which product did you use to darken the blade?
Thanks, I used oxpho blue from brownells
@@Aleeknives
thank you friend, a big hug from your friend here in Brazil
That is fantastic! You may not be able to get oxpho blue there. It is a cold bluing solution for gun parts. I am sure you could source another brand there. Brazil makes some wonderful firearms!
@@Aleeknives es, here in Brazil it doesn’t, I will have to import or darken the litter in a solution with manganese. yes here we have good cutlery too. but you are a very good friend, I learned a lot by watching your videos. sorry my english, i only speak portuguese and spanish.
What dimensions r these
😍🏹👌🏾😃🤜🏾
👍👍👍👍😊!
Thank you!
Boa noite. Mano faça uma espada dessa. Pra mim. E me diga o valor do seu trbalho....sensacional!!!...
Obrigado pelo seu interesse! Vendi este por US $ 500 com a capa de couro incluída.
Would you be willing to make another and sell it?
Unfortunately no, I rarely if ever make an item twice. However, I make a lot of cool stuff and it is all for sale! They go fast so speak up if you like a peice! Thanks for watching
So far I would have to rate this a Healthy ""9"" , I would have rated it more but, it didnt Hum , Glow or retract into the handle like Luke Skywalkers does ,,,lol,,lol,,lol.
😂😂 I agree!
No way, this is a “songsteel” blade brother. capable of stopping lightsaber attacks lol this blade is beast
can I buy it?
Sold
But thank you!
La sacaste antes de tiempo del aceite... No va tener la dureza justa...
Son re malos y en sima que le costo
Why did you forge the bevel for? Why not forge the entire blade design out of a round or square bar of steel if forging for your viewers I the reason why you forged it
I forged what was necessary to increase the strength in the material I had at hand. There are many ways to build a functional sword. I appreciate your feedback but I am not sure I understand the premise of your question.
Beside the wonderfull finished look and the way to it.... the beginning, thats not real bladesmithing, if ya use an aleady cutted form for it.
Thanks, cheers
This really aint a Kopis look at the real life Kopis its way different.
Definitely a Hollywood version
