Chuck Norris approve this :v
IIIRobIII 30*
Chuck Norris is true that your round house kick is like a big bang?
Chuck Norris You'd actually be surprised how hot sparks aren't.
AWE-team, you asked for it and we delivered! FINALLY, the Hidden Blade and Pirate Cutlass from Assassin's Creed IV!!!!!!!!
Faviola Delgadillo QUIERO UNA
Jeremy Adams That sounds awesome! Share it with us, we'd love to see how it turns out.
Y de cuanto hablamos amorcito
Wow I'm impresses. You are a true artist. And how much to buy the hidden blade
jamie mcgavran None of the weapons are for sale, but if you're ever in Southern California, you can see some of them on display at Tony Swatton's workshop: www.swordandstone.com/
I would literally pay money to get my hands on that like fully functional
Same!!
Rodney Davis and then kill fricking humans
You can 3d print a working dual action one
Take it to school and assassinate the teachers
Well there are fully functional hidden blades you can find on ebay
Wait, y'all still have your ring fingers?
You only lost your finger in assassins creed the first part of the titles
Because in assassin creed 2 Your friend leornardo design a hidden blade without ring finger sacrifice
@@jcdentongaming1304 and the other guy, its a joke. A reference. Not an expectation.
@@andrewgonzalez7143 There's gonna be that one assassin noob that cuts his ring finger off without checking the others.
@@zoooooly actually you only lost your finger lore wise in origins after that it was just a ritual to show that you wan't to be assassin
Me: *thinking about AC* KZhead recommendations: *allow us to introduce ourselves*
It reads your mind. Your FBI agent is all like 'I know that look'
🤣🤣
8:20 *1400's* :- _Assasins using the hidden blade to kill bad people._ *2019* :- _Using the same blade for opening cold drinks_
2020: Screw hidden blades We are gonna use dual axes
*Altair in the thumbnail* Edward Kenway : AM I JOKE TO YOU?
and they used Ezio's suit AHAHAHHAHAHA
Haythem do I need to answer that pops? Connor: b*tch please
This is from 5 years ago. Imagine if they tried to make it again? 🤔 They may be able to do the retraction this time. 🤔
kzhead.info/sun/idGvk82qnJSvjGw/bejne.html Try this guys hidden blade😱✌😈 super cool....
colinfurze did it, I don't know if he realizes he inadvertently made the worlds most functional hidden blade.
@@takeeto9894 there's someone who had the same idea of retraction btw
@@takeeto9894 it's shelden caudill
He updated the one from this video to work on a spring/soundcloud wheel to take the number of rings down to one, and if you made the scissor lift with slightly shorter linkages and attached the wheel linkage to the second intersection instead of the first, a simple housing would fit right over top, protecting the mechanism and still staying thinner than Colin's.
"Hidden blade shooting out" They foreshadowed Unity.
I thought the exact same thing. Or maybe they gave them the design.
The hidden blade wasn't shooting out. It was an bullet or dart or something.
3:03 I didn’t know heat treating made lightsaber noises
It sounds like Dooku saber
Oh fuk
But can the hidden blade retract??
Andrew Awesome nah the one they made works purely off of a spring mechanism released by a button. Making one that can retract and deploy from the wrist gets a bit bulkier and just doesn’t look as sleek. Though the one they made was still pretty blocky, so I don’t see why not go for it.
They could add a small hook on the end of the blade so when it stops you can pull it back to a locked position. Just attach the hook to the spring mechanism (if possible) and idea that could work.
Yeah. Look up dual-action OTF designs
Aaron Yu Not if you use a simple force ejection. Attach blade to spring, keep spring slack, when it ejects spring pulls it taught, catches on a ridge that ridge is released with a string/cord attached to a ring, spring retracts blade, not as bulky, about as bulky as that blade tbh
Probaly yes i Think
corvo's sword from dishonored
YES
me too
yes his sword boss!
yes
What about Altair's sword?
Can you make a butter knife? Like one you'd use to spread butter on a roll? That'd be badass.
Yesssssss so awsome XD
the best comment so far
I was thinking about him making a spoon but it would probably be illegal though since its so deadly and sharp :(
Tavo Lopez death by spoon
when i read the first part of your comment i thought you were another sky's fan but no... what a plot twist.
Recommended after 6 years Good job youtube
Everybody be gangsta till the quiet kid pulls up his hidden blade when he hears the teacher say "May the father of understanding guide us" during history
*Then proceeds to walk up to the teacher then stabs him*
there are actually many people on here who've made hidden blades, and some of them use a pulley system to extend and retract the blade, instead of a push button mechanism. a cord is connected to a ring worn on the wearer's finger, and connects the ring to the pulley in the gauntlet. Flicking your wrist outward while wearing the ring pulls the cord, which activates the pulley mechanism, causing the blade to extend. Flicking your wrist outward again retracts the blade. That's actually how they work in the game, at least that's how Ezio's blade worked. I'm not sure how Altaïr's, Edward's or Connor's blades worked, because they changed the design of the blade with each game, but they all allowed for one-handed operation
really? because in one cutscene in Revelations, there's a close-up of one of Ezio's blades and it shows that it is activated by a pulling a string which is connected to a ring worn on his finger. I know that's not how the other assassins' blades work, but that's definitely how Ezio's blade works.
That may not be the method of opening the blade, but neither is this one. You don't see any of the assassins reaching over with their left hand to press a button on their right wrist or vice-versa. They flick their wrists outward.
Btw the cutscene that shows this is the one where one of his blades is damaged. You can clearly see a string attached to his ring, running down into his gauntlet.
Actually his blade was damaged when it was sliced off by a Templar's sword
Yeah I can sort of see what you're getting at
everybody`s dream, a working hidden blade
Oh wow! That turned out amazingly. The Damascus really sets it off too, I wish there was more beauty shots of it in the video. The handle of the cutlass is gorgeous too!
Good to have you back. I really enjoy the smithing videos with this guy.
They have curved swords..... curved swords...
***** you idiot, it's a skyrim joke -_-
***** shut it....
Aiman Ghazi y u so mad brah :D
Mr4CS was having a bad day that day :D
lance siver someone here didnt see those guys from hammerfell
Make Corvo Attano's sword! It'll certainly be a challenge!
"I'll take your entire stock"
2:24 Love his hearty laugh
And people say it's impractical to use this as a real weapon.
Yeah, i admit it's not very good. But at least you still looks cool using it
Nah I meant as in it was impossible to recreate the hidden blade
Ashley Kimaru what makes you think it's impossible?
Darren ATM The springs and shit. The same person said it would be impartial and impossible to hold and create a real life Keyblade.
Ashley Kimaru keyblade? This is the Hidden blade. Some people can make the dual action. Now, can you tell me if you know the mechanism? I already search the blueprints for months. But, no result
iron man armor
Be careful, dont make the same mistake as Bayek. He accidentally chopped his own ledt ring finger.
Yukizero0w0 He didn’t accidentally do it. He knew very well what he was doing and chose to sacrifice his ring finger for his own life, which would have been taken by The Hippo who was about to strangle Bayek to death had he not chosen to stab The Hippo in the neck, cutting off his ring finger which was in an awkward position in an effort to relieve The Hippo’s grasp on his neck.
Caspar Fraser maybe,but he was struggling against eurodotes,maybe he forgot about the ring finger thing
Bayek should have just stabbed him through the back instead of smashing his face into the pool
@@laanson5389 i guess the reason why he dont want to stab him in the back is because MAYBE He want to make him pay for his action of killing his son...so he want to smash his head..... Remember that is before he knew that there is more
@@laanson5389 it was the blade contruction... leonardo in ac2 made an improvment that allows to keep the ring finger.
well, if there's ever a zombie apocalypse I know where i'm getting my weapons from
Corvo's sword from Dishonored!
Seconded, Corvo's sword would be awesome and pretty challenging
this is a great idea! Corvo's sword, NOW! :D
I appouve Corvo Sword from Dishonored!!!(God damn good choice)
DAEDRIC SKYRIM SWORD
and armor (it may be hard as hell to do the armor, but it will be really cool)
RussoPlays xD You CAN'T make the Daedric Armor, it requires an material that doesn't even exist. And even IF time travel was possible, you wouldn't even find the armor.
Ahhh!!! I love yalls work so much!!!
Nobody: Man at arms in every video: This is the most requested build so far!
Seriously: REBELLION! DMC 3!!
Oh holy Yes!!!!!
Make the one with the skulls
Or DMC 4 since it's exactly same but more detailed :P I don't know much about making swords but I bet making that handle would not be easy :D
He DID make that one sword from Thundercats.
Corvo's collapsible sword from Dishonored.
I’m really glad I found this channel.
This was an uncharted channel for me, glad i found it. You guys are awesome, word!
You're a Blacksmith? You're so friggin COOL!!! Well, hot in this case. If I lived in medieval times I'd definitely be a blacksmith
It's hot and hard work. In medieval times they had super heavy hammers, not any automatic hammers. Forges were hand heated, by bellows. All in all it was a hefty pay check so that's an up side i quess.
Zoey Bullard I know that already, still I think It'd suit me
after a few years your shoulder muscles and arm muscles would be HUGE
Sunny Price jaraza arent you dead?
*Jiraiya Edo tensei xD
The craftsmanship shown on this channel is always absolutely stunning. Thank you for your content.
True work of a master right there
when i clicked this video...Man i thought this was just some garage-youtuber making blades but I WAS WRONG nice video very informant high budget and composed perfectly with nice choice of music to match the atmosphere
wanna be a hit at parties, start opening peoples beers with the Hidden Blade!
Haha bad ass
+ttlpwn34 hahahaha until cops come for you
+Xbox360 turn around da game Gamertron well how do they know?
+ttlpwn34 You wont be invited to parties if you dress like Altair...
Reptilian Follower I think you mean I will ALWAYS be invited if I'm dressed like Altair!
So ummm.. I assassinated the subscribe button, then I had to buy a new monitor...
This is amazing
Dude you melt my heart i want work in your shop
Of course they're using legos. A pirate skull must be molded by pieces from hell.
HOLY CRAP YOU MADE THE ASSASSIN'S BLADE!!!!
Respect Well done
I’d love to see you make the “DawnBreaker” from skyrim
SOMEONE HELP I HAVE AN ADDICTION TO THIS CHANNEL!
Destroya2234 I fail to see the problem.
Destroya2234
knife

Destroya2234 One of us...
you sir is an artist
Imagine almost getting mugged and then you just whip out a Cutlass and a hidden blade
Not that I don't like the new stuff, I do, but god damn I miss Tony.
why he leave the show ?
yeah i prefer this guy
do the infinity blade
why did he leave anyways?
curryMaDmAn n I think he just retired.
Please make Dishonored Corvo's Folding Blade
this is a person who loves his job to the top
wow these was beautifully done nice job
The most badass nerds ever
Norbus Not nerds,black smiths.
+Sweet Dad Both.
Dawood Ahmed what?
Travis wright : I agree! Whatever dafuq, Dawood said is beyond me. Normally you can figure it out but he must of had a stroke at the time he typed that.
Tryndamers sword please
ohhh hell yes
That would be fucking amazing
Loki THE GOD league of legends: tryndamers sword omg awesome idea
the sultan tryndamere skin
Lego's can be helpful always for your arm, molding and building architectures
Sword looks alike the privateerinh blade in AC4. Thats sick dude
Omg, I love assassins creed... And this looks like a real functional ones. Love it. 😊
To all the 5 year olds in the comments: 1. No you can not buy one! 2. Don't ask if they can give you one for free 3. Don't give away your address while telling them to send you one.
lol u can buy one
look on ebay xD or even amazon
Rex Legacy those are shitty plastic not metal so please do your research before opening your mouth
TheLegend2 7 There are people who spend time making these sort of things and selling them, are you stating that no one else can possibly make them thus you cant buy one? no Man At Arms arent gonna sell you one but it is still completely possible to buy a real one elsewhere.
Mitch McClelland Yes I should've been clearer and that is my fault. What I meant to say is that these little kids are using the comments to spam Man at Arms asking them if they can buy he one they made in the video
Awesome work...
Incredible!I wish i had Ezio A.C. 2 Hidden blade,Ezio Brotherhood Hidden blade,all Ezio Revelations Hidden blades,Bayek hidden blade,Edward Hidden blade and the Hidden blade from the protagonists in Valhalla.
Ryuko's Scissor Blade from Kill la Kill
this is true art in my opinion, very well done!
Best channel everrrr
I don't understand why people hate videos ! They put a lot of effort in them
Ryuko Matoi's scissor blade from Kill la Kill!
Roronoa Zoro's 3 swords from One Piece!
thats not a good thing to ask for as we currently do not know what his last 3 swords will be, whether they will change or not.
NetherPrime I'm still in the past of the show since I only watch the dub. I wouldn't mind the ones he has after Mihawk breaks the other 2.
I think it's an awesome idea
keyblader007 I watch the sub(don't know if he get new sword in the manage yet or will get new swords) but pretty sure the white sword from his friend and the black sword from the legendary samurai will stay as his sword till the end.
Come on, we all know Zoro's gonna kick Mihawk's butt and take his sword! >:3
An OTF switchblade uses the inertia of the blade to stretch a second spring then lock into place using a flat spring. The retraction does the same thing, the inertia of blade pulls the first spring and another flat spring locks it into the retraced position. Both locking flat springs are attached to the trigger and which way you push the it controls which locking spring is pushed out.
Realy nice👍love that❤️
One of the weapons from Devil May Cry, that would be badass. Great work on these by the way.
It truly is a privilege to watch an artist such as yourself make these incredible weapons. I wonder if you could please attempt the mace of the Lord of the Nazgul?
damn the quality on this video is great this would be good as a legit tv show
Geralts Sihil, and/or Ciris sword "zireael" would be amazing works of art
If there is ever a zombie apocalypse, this dude is set with all of these badass weapons.
hahahahahaha i thought the same thing :D ... if there ever is a zombie apocalypse u better use swords instead of bullets ... michonne from TWD is doing pretty well with it ;)
Well you know where is the place to get the best weapons :D
Corvo blade from dishonored!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!! ;_;
OMG YEEEEESSSS
yeah he have beautiful blade :3 :3 :3
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yyyyeeeeesssss
Yh
oh god please redo this one i would love to see the new skill be put it this
I LOVE What you do... And I want to learn this 😅
i'm triggered that its ezio's brotherhood outfit pretending to be a pirate assassin.
Glad to see I wasn't the only one to notice that!
They disgrace me by stealing Ezio from the past, killing Edward and making Ezio take his place.
same
So? Edward is better than Ezio. Edward would kill Ezio. Would he? Everybody go to Screw Attack and ask them to do a video on ALL the main characters from Assassin Creed in one ring TO THE DEATH 😈 like if you want to see that
Edward would NOT kill ezio. Edward may be strong but Ezio is also the person who pretty much invented theat generation of assassins.
Zabuzas executioner blade
class! very beautiful you will give
This guys a master!!
Corvo's blade from Dishonored
Jetstream Sam high frequency blade, with sheath included.
Wow i was thinking of it and boom they did it. They shouldve been main people to make for them

I LOVE the Hidden Blade and Swords and Especially the Clothes he wears!
Nice, using LEGO as a casting form.
Bootleg lego.
Ben De Man Its Duplo
They did the spring mechanism so it's awesoooooome
THIS IS GOOD
Mass production of this is crucial...
We must! Or the templars will take over the world!
milos98k Hah, these are all your petty assassin gonna use.
ElliFong It's badass ^^
"I'm trying to reverse engineer this, but I've taken apart, from this really bitchin' toy." 0:41 XD
Bro im so subbing
For some reason I thought all assassin's that were related to Altair had his hidden blade
Beautiful Weapons, Good job. More Suggestions. 1: Freddy Krueger's Long Nails. 2: Peter Pan's dagger. 3: Optimus Prime's Sword from Age Of Extinction. And: Daredevil's Baton's. Pleasssssseeeeee!
