What can I say? As a tradesman, I adore watching a craftsman make something from nothing. Please continue doing what you do. My only request is more history/cultural lessons and to continue explanations of why you're doing what you're doing. This guy though? This guy is good.
Those axes are awesome. The guy who forged them did an incredible job and his eye for detail is top notch. Any viking or dwarf (Gimli) would be proud to weild those bad boys in battle.

Can you please do shays bastard sword from assassins creed rogue you never did one from that game and heartsbane from game of thrones the show version not the one Valyrian steel is selling
I am looking forward to you 2 doing a collaborative project together. I can see it now, Bellerophon receives a package, inside is some Bloom steel, and Ilya.
Dude, spoilers.Spear doesn't show up until the next book. For a Way of Kings build i think Szet' blade would be more fitting, it's not as gigantic as other swords and yet just as important in the story.
I have to say, the quality of the video produced grow a lot since the start of the channel. Lightning, framing, editing, Matt improves himself greatly and has nothing to be ashamed of other youtube videos! And as always another amazing build. This channel deserve all the sub it has, and way more!
Im glad u guys are continuing to make outstandingly Quality builds on ur own away from the constraints of another company bc seeing the standards of these vs the builds of ur past home channel is Really Something
I usually watch this channel just for Ilya and his ridiculous attention to detail but it's cool that you guys host other smaller channels that do good work too.
@@sbhack2077 lol, a normal viking axe weight about 800g. In comparison some of the biggest a Zweihänder weight around 2-3 kg and they would 1.4-2.1m in length. You are almost talking about a Guts raider sword from berserk level of weight.
Beautifully done! I'm a huge Assassin's Creed fan and haven't played Valhalla yet, I'm an OTR truck driver and can only play Xbox at home, and I'm playing through all games in order of release before I touch Valhalla.
yes i am subscribed, and for those people that think that these videos are useless i was planning on using this design for my axe in a middle medieval renaissance age fest
Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting on the Forged in Fire video with Ilya. I was wondering what you guys were up to and so glad you're doing well.
17:32 Is that a crack in the eye of the ax? The profile of the blue handled axe had me buggin, until the reveal at the end. They look kick ass… great job on the twin Viking axes!!!
My favorite weapon is the Nunchaku and I want to see some make some like never before. I love watching you guys work and I know you have the skills to completely revolutionize the Nunchaku and make them in to a new and advanced functioning work of art.
I would love to see you guys build The Green Dragon Crescent Blade, Guan Yu's weapon. We have seen alot of swords and axes, maces and daggers, but not that many, if any, guandao.
@@ThatWorks matt enjoy. As you get to the most recent book you will want to expand out into some of his other books as they are all connected as part of his “cosmere”. The mistborn books and the book war breaker are important to really flesh out the universe he’s built over the years and have references in the most recent stormlight archive book. The narrators Michael Kramer and Kate Reading do a great job
@@ThatWorks I would love to see That Works interpretation of the oathblades. Rereading the entire series, it is unbelievably awesome and epic, I hope you will enjoy it :) And might I add, every Brandon Sanderson's book is worth a read (in my humble opinion).
Interesting etching, You guys should do an elaboration on stencil work with markers. Makes me want to try this with the simple tools before investing in the good stuff.
Y'all do so much work for these gorgeous builds. I hope the finances are there to back up the passion and time that goes into each of these incredible peices. Liked, subscribed, commented fit the algorithm.
Thank you guys for the response that’s cool as hell, I absolutely love what you guys do It is truly awesome , I know you guys are busy as hell making some truly awesome cool shit and these projects take a hell of long time to make but I always say you can’t rush greatness , but if could please make a request could you please please please make the reforged kings sword from Outlander it’s one of my favourite swords from a movie ,I think it’s because it’s a blend between an old Viking sword and the metal from the dudes spaceship I thought was a cool ass concept and it looks super badass 😂 take care guys in these pressing times and as always ✌️💚🤘
It's so cool that you guys do both historical and fictional weapons. My suggestion for a historical one is Kusanagi no Tsurugi just to hear Ilya talk about it.
If you end up enjoying The Way of Kings, definitely check out the rest of Brandon's books. All of the Cosmere books are good, but even his non-Cosmere books are good. If you're not really into mideval-ish fantasy, I'd suggest the Reckoners series if super hero type stories are more your speed. If something a little more..odd but also normal (yeah, doesn't sound like it makes sense, but it will) is more your thing, then check out his Legion series.
That Works make this list he is Riku: Keyblade Way to Dawn (kingdom hearts 2) Dai: Dai's Sword (Dragon Quest Dai no Daibouken) Haru Glory: Eisenmeteor (Rave Master) if you can't make everyone on the list just do one or two on the list. I thank you very much I wish you much success and great achievements
Could you if possible make the hidden blade used by Connor from Assassin's Creed 3? I know it is around 9 years late but I believe it is quite technical. It has a pivot for the blade. Essentially it is kind of a dual purpose blade. A question can you please explain the etching process used here?
I was wondering what happened to the Ilya and Matt from Man at Arms, and it's nice to see they split off and still documenting their forging projects. The video production isn't the same quality but the projects are still awesome
Mine has the butt made into a bowl for smoking, 21 inch curved handle is the stem. Wonder how much one like that would cost yall to remake? Wish I could upload the pic. Great to have out in the wild.
I would enjoy a bit more historical build' like a type xvi or type xx oakeshott sword' or maybe even better a type Xiii' in Romania from where i am the majority of the discoverd swords are type Xiii so it will be something special to me. Great work guys. Keep the art coming alive.
That was an underwhelming build lol but on Man at Arms' defense, the fans requested for that simple triangle nothing much to add actually but they've said that it's not the final product yet since they'll do some engraving on the thing soon.
@@TheSteam02 yes they used to be and when they were the builds that MaA put out was amazing since they have left however...... well its just gone to shit to be frank
So nice! I haven´t played the game but no need in order to like this axes! On question tho, why we don´t have audio from the shop? I like to hear all the hammer and fire noises.
I’ve had the bell on since I first subscribed not long over a year ago, but I think I’ve only ever been notified about like 2 videos, it’s not that I don’t check my notify, I don’t bell many channels but I loved your man at arms series so I belled the shit outa this channel
Loved this vid. A future suggestion: I haven’t seen a video for Arnie’s main sword from the original Conan the Barbarian. Could you please build that sword?
Man if you’re talking about way of Kings/Stormlight Archive how long till we get some wheel of time love? Rands Heron marked blade or Mat’s black shafted Ashandarei with its two ravens

Can you do a Total Warhammer build?
I subbed as soon as I heard about the channel
Can you please do shays bastard sword from assassins creed rogue you never did one from that game and heartsbane from game of thrones the show version not the one Valyrian steel is selling
Please make a darksaber from the Mandalorian series
.
I am looking forward to you 2 doing a collaborative project together. I can see it now, Bellerophon receives a package, inside is some Bloom steel, and Ilya.
Love the glitch effect peppered through out the video! Its a nice call back to the first Assassin's Creed game, it makes me nostalgic lol.
Since Way of Kings was brought up. Kaladin's Shard Spear, Dalinar's Blade, or Adolins Plate/Blade (had to throw plate in somewhere)
Now there is a good idea !
@@ThatWorks bonus points if you make Kaladin's spear from Syl... :)
Oh hell yeah
@@ThatWorks Yes!!!!

I appreciate that they went through the effort to cap the top of the axe.
There is a level of roughness to the result that adds authenticity to this build. A hard balance to achieve. Beautiful work.
right? I agree.
I usually watch this channel just for Ilya and his ridiculous attention to detail but it's cool that you guys host other smaller channels that do good work too.
Truly the best music you have selected for a video so far.... Good job.
Thank you! Music selection is one of the toughest things in an edit. it can make or break your whole project.
Well, you nailed it. Have a link to that music?
The Bellerophon guys are awesome. It's really cool that you shout them out.
yea man! It's been great working with them!
@@ThatWorks I bet the big guy could bench press a Yugo. He's huge...
Would be kinda cool to know the final weight of builds like this.
i think way too heavy to doublewield
@@emperadorromano567 maybe yes, maybe no. Is why it would be cool to know the weight.
Estimate per axe 8-12 kg. Which is quite light during eivor era.
@@sbhack2077 sorry, but no. 8 kilograms is way too much for any weapon. Doublehanded axes would weight at top 3 kilograms, and that's already a lot.
@@sbhack2077 lol, a normal viking axe weight about 800g. In comparison some of the biggest a Zweihänder weight around 2-3 kg and they would 1.4-2.1m in length. You are almost talking about a Guts raider sword from berserk level of weight.
You know what I really like about your channel? You promote other smiths as well who are also really talented.

Both the axes are very well done. Amazing team. Well done Alexi and team
yea they did a great job!
@That Works - You guys should do a collab with Alec Steele or Will Stelter. Awsome craftsmanship on those axes!
Love the Stormlight Archive drop during the audible commercial. if you get into it, you should totally make one of the shardblades.
I may have to do that !
I would love to see you guys build The Green Dragon Crescent Blade, Guan Yu's weapon. We have seen alot of swords and axes, maces and daggers, but not that many, if any, guandao.
Michaelcthulhu built it check his TH-cam chan
Great video and prolly one of the best book series I have read to date
Since you mentioned The Way of Kings... I'd love to see Oathbringer, or Adolin's Shardblades :D or Kaladin's Sylblade/Sylspear
That could happen! stay tuned! Let me finish the books first!

Everyone should get a montage of them at work while triumphant music plays. I bet this dude feels like a boss and he damg well should!
the cinematography and editing on this is of the same high quality of the axes themselves and I like it :D
"And *my* axe." ~Gimli, probably.
:D I think he would like these ! More Dwarvin than Viking by design IMHO
@@Thomas.Wright That would be correct👌🎸

Another beautiful build, guys! Sharing on The Awesomer.
More great stuff from these guys, that's why I keep coming back

don't worry, you're good 😎
Cant wait to see some of your work!
Love ACV, and watching the very talented blacksmith was very enjoyable.
My gods, those things are beautiful. Amazing work.
As a support for the channel of Matt and Ilya, I will watch this video again, but now in English))
Сергей Устинов thank you!
Great work Alecsiy
These are so incredible, especially with those engravings! True masters!
Amazing , was expecting for a video about eivor’s axes. New subscriber :)

Thank you! They deserve it!
Dope build, and yea I rate Audible, listen every day.
that is an amazing pair of axes i really like the handle in the folded axe the cap at the bottom of the handle is awesome
It's so cool that you guys do both historical and fictional weapons. My suggestion for a historical one is Kusanagi no Tsurugi just to hear Ilya talk about it.
Love you're guys show. Keep doing what you're doing!!! Thanks
Please, make the viking hidden blade! It's got some intricate details for Ilya to engrave and Matt could do a uniqe damascus for the blade
I agree!! Then Matt should give it to his wife who is a die hard AC fan! Lol
@@CannonDollX Everybody wins! Please, push your man a little :D
Wow. Amazing art. So beautiful.
Yea they did a great job. Which Axe was your favorite though if you had to pick one ?

grats on 500k guys!!
Thank you!
Would also love to see yall remake the custom gauntlet.
Such impressive work and without all the expensive machinery. I bow my invisible cap to you sir
The Forged in Fire episode was DOPE! Ilya went beast mode! When is Matt gonna try his hand on the show?! Keep it up!
that handle making table saw jig is pretty cool
Right? Simple and effective
Прекрасное сотрудничество с Bellerophon Studio)!!!
Beautiful axes guys!!!
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Idea: make a series on proper forging techniques, and the proper tools, like hammers, and anvils, and how to prepare to forge properly.
I didn't get a notification for this build. Still, great build!👍
Great video! Must have been a nightmare to edit but you made it all come together seamlessly.

*Wait a minute.* Is that the blacksmith's hammer from the video game?
10/10
Incredible work.
Odin has a seat saved for you in Valhalla!

It has almost been a year, but I come back to rewatch the awesomeness.
Not sure what is more impressive, the build or Matt’s beard
for the sake of craftsmanship lets go with the build ya ?
Beautifully done! You guys ever see pictures or video of video game weapons coming out & are like "F*ck, this'll be a lot of acid-etching!!"?
These are incredible! Anybody know who makes and sells these?
Im not sure anyone is at this point
