Taking fictional weapons, mostly swords, daggers, or other sharp objects, and making them real is kind of a thing. At least something you can hang on your wall. Quite a few diehard Lord of Ring fans have Narsil adorning their homes, and quite a few Star Trek devotees are owners of Klingon bat'leths as well, for example.

Though none (or at least most) of these replicas are functional. The same goes for the iconic Master Sword, from the "Legend of Zelda." Look around and you can find plenty that are just for show. But one person decided to make a legit, real deal version.

It's the handwork of master blacksmith Tony Swatton, who has a penchant for realizing fictional arms. And given that the Master Sword is his most requested weapon, it was only a matter of time in which he made one, and that time is now:

The word "impressive" does Swatton's creation little justice. One must admit, perhaps a reason why few have even bothered to make a halfway decent fake replica is because of how cartoony the actual design is. But Swatton proves that even a sword with a blue hilt can be mighty imposing.

Too bad the demonstration didn't include it being used to swat at live chickens.
