Because Bladed Weapons are Cool
Jun. 9th, 2014 11:08 pmI actually found this ages ago, but just recently dug it up again. Man At Arms, a blacksmith who creates weapons for movies and TV, made a real life version of Ed's spear from the first episodes of FMA (either anime).
Other favorites from Man At Arms are Sokka's sword from "Avatar: The Last Airbender", which gets bonus points for being literally forged from a meteorite, and He-Man's sword.
Sadly, he doesn't seem to have done Inuyasha's Tessaiga. As for "Blue Exorcist"... Well, Rin's Kurikara is pretty plain if you leave out the whole engulfed in hellfire aspect, which is understandably impossible to recreate ;)
