God of War! Forging the Sharpest Blades of Chaos with LAVA using more than 2000 hours | HammerForge
"The Blades of Chaos" is Kratos' iconic weapon and one of the most representative weapons in the "God of War" game series. This weapon consists of two massive curved blades permanently fused to Kratos' forearms by chains. In the storyline of God of War, the God of War, Ares, created the Blades of Chaos.
To faithfully recreate this legendary weapon from the God of War games, I spent over 2000 hours and used a 20-kilogram ingot of 1095 high carbon steel for forging. I also incorporated a lava effect into the weapon. The final single-handed Blades of Chaos weigh 3.4 kilograms, and I hope that a true "Kratos" can wield them.
As a fan of the God of War series, crafting the Blades of Chaos has been a lifelong dream of mine, and now I finally have the opportunity to make it a reality. I welcome everyone to join me in reliving the most powerful weapon of the God of War series.

Thank for watching my video.
This is the first time i see an accurate work of the blades of chaos. Right size and right design. Beautiful.
I think he love kratos soo he made a nice work 😂❤
On top of all those they have a fire element crazy 🤯
I need one of those
You're right bro. I also think this is a blade of chaos with a shape that almost perfectly matches Kratos' weapon
@@shitcj4428Yeah 😂
I was racking my brain trying to figure out how he did the lava effect on the blades until i realized that not only did he made the cracks by hand and forge the blades incredibly well, he also painted that lava effect by hand, my god the craftsmanship doesnt end
Magic?
is that really just painting? I was wondering the same and it looks like it's glowing... It looks amazing
That’s insane if it’s paint
What’s more impressive is that it’s not actually paint. The lava he used to forge the blades was re-ignited when he set the blades on fire. Almost like the effect in the game. Extremely BADASS 😌
It looks like epoxy and they add something to make it glow, i was wondering why he didn’t add that part
Kratos didn't get the blades from Ares, he got the blades from you. This is astounding work!
I’m a long time GoW fan and your blades made my heart swell with pride. They are a magnificent work of art.
This is absolutely incredible man, well done! I think the dwarves themselves would be proud of your craftsmanship.
except the dwarfs didnt make the blades of chaos. they made thors hammer and his wifes frost axe
@@Vugen18But they are the ones who improve it.
Hephaestus himself would be impressed by this great work
Are them for sale?
@Vugen18 never said that the dwarves made them did I? Lol like just let me compliment the guy who made these blades, sheesh 😂
I cant imagine the feeling of pride and success when completeing an absolute masterpiece like this. Incredible
Consider me severely impressed, I'm a freelancer prop maker for film and tv and every single clip in this video had me swapping between "oh wow they're actually doing this properly! And using these methods!" And me just reacting in utter awe like "omg that's gorgeous work" and "wow I've never even seen that before!" I'm not ashamed to say that halfway through this video I started making some very sensual sounds that would make my partner jealous. This is by far the single best looking and most quality made replica I've ever seen someone make and I do this for a living. Absolutely bravo!
Since you are a prop maker, do you know which tool he is using at 8:38? I wonder if it is only used for what he is doing in the video or for something else too
I've seen it a couple times before, but for the life of me can't remember what it's called @@MayDayakaLuxKudosGottaCheese
@@MayDayakaLuxKudosGottaCheese I thought I'd replied to this but no I don't know what the tool is called
@@MayDayakaLuxKudosGottaCheese it think it's just some metal sticks secured to a drill to add some scratches to it, so I don't think it has any specific name 🤷
@@ordis5423 yea that actually makes sense
Forged in the lowest pits of tarturus. The blades of chaos forever bounded with Kratos' flesh
3:49 the way the blades glow after the normalize just looks cool man
Rage of the titans man
Imbued with primordial fire
immolation type shit
Happened soon as I read this
it looks like the blades when you use them ingame and you stack up imolation
This takes an absurd amount of patience and skill. Some people won't undrstand how good the craftsmanship here is with those detailed lava effects on the blades. Nicely done.
The detailed lava paints are awesome but I'd place a lot more importance to many other parts that were way more time and effort demanding tbh...
He actually crafted them with channels in the blades, too, which is a BITCH to do while maintaining the integrity of the blade (Fullers are one thing, but that much detail work without a laser engraver makes my head hurt) @@sarcasm-83
@sarcasm-83 good thing no one asked.
@@hed6444 It's a horrible thing, actually. I'll go to bed knowing a complete stranger named "hed6444" never asked and suffer the cold sweats that glue the sheets to my skin as I toss and turn, waking up unrested to the new day and it'll ruin my whole weekend, if not my entire life.
Holy moly, this is pure art. The attention to detail is insane. What I would pay to have a set like these.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I would say: This is a perfect replica of the Blades of Chaos! Kratos felt honored to. handle such parts!
As a blacksmith myself, this was perfect. i've seen many people make things like these and there is always something they do wrong. it can be design or the construction. this is perfect. nothing wrong, you can't do it better
You can by making them with a lighter metal so there actually one handed blades like the meant to be
@@savagewolf23e49or give them to a strong guy like how Kratos is supposed to be…
@@YDavis. Most of the time when bladesmiths make them even strong men have to two hand them it's ridiculous there are way lighter metals that are just as strong as steel or stronger
@@YDavis. And with a forge it's possible to get those metals to forging temp so really there isn't a excuse
@@savagewolf23e49 They weigh only 3.4kg/ea. That is less than a gallon of milk.
4000 subscribers only???? This is one of the best quality weapon recreations ive ever seen! We need to make this guy famous! Edit: This has been my most wholesome experience on KZhead! Aside from the guy who told me to repent, I've loved seeing all of your replies updating how this channel has been growing :)
Oh trust me he will be famous
Bro gained 1000 since your comment
And 500 more after that @@The_Wild_Weka. The algorithm at work!
It's 9.22K already, and growing! :D
19k now :D@@xobotun_
"Hey what kind of leather do you use for your weaponry?" CRAZY HORSE
All I can say is holly S****. I’ve seen those blades made by 100 different smiths and this is the first time I’ve seen them made right. Your work, craftsmanship and attention to detail is bar none. Great editing and music and amazing work.
I like how he clearly was able to rid himself of the reflex of grabbing a falling item, I imagine it happens to pretty much every smith at some point: something starts falling, you reflexively grab it, its 1 million degrees, hand skin leaves the chat.
one day this guy woke up and decided to spawn legendary weapons directly from hell itself. SICK work dude you deserve ALOT of recognition!
Absolutely amazing…as a fan of the series who’s played and beat all the games, I’ve never been happier to see these blades. Beautiful craftsmanship🔥🔥🔥
Honestly i hope samta monica studios see this and maybe even use it as their prop because this is the most realistic version ive ever seen of the blades. Bravo. Bravo
This is, hands down, the best mock-up of the Choas blade on KZhead. What a fantastic recreation.
I think we can all appreciate the time, dedication, and sheer craftsmanship on this project! Brock and Sindri would be proud. Thanks for the awesome video.
Ares would be proud too
Brock and Sindri didn't make the Blades of Chaos. Kratos got them from Ares in the Greek games. They did make the Leviathan axe though.
@@user-mf1fl3oy6sand Hephaestus
@@kwall337 Don't think they were implying that the Huldra Brothers actually made the Blades of Chaos -just that as master smiths, they would appreciate the craftsmanship shown here.
LET THE RANGE OF TITANS DRIVE YOUR PASSION MY BRO
Those look like they would be right at home in the hands of Kratos. Well done.
Dude this is insane!!!!!! I know we only saw it for a second, but the craftsmanship on the axe is also rad. Please do a video for that build as well!
Agreed
I find this work actually inspiring in a way tbh, I mean I’ve started working on my own with just sheet metal, but I’m kinda envious of how good the thicker blade looks. And the fact that he just pressed it into the shape of the blade is impressive. I really hope this gets way more views than it already has.
These are SICK, my man. Far and away the most accurate Blades of Chaos I've ever seen anyone do.
I guess we can show this to Brok since he wondered who it was that crafted the blades of chaos. This is the best Ive seen so far when it comes to forgery
I am an old time fan of God of War. Your art is simply wonderful and I can’t be more proud there’s people like you in the world. Gives me hope and joy
I can’t imagine how proud I would feel knowing I created these unbelievable works of art. If I had the money I’d pay top notch for these!!
They are the best fictional swords recreated, this blacksmith is a true master 10000/10
You a are Hephestus himself!!! For the first time I see someone actually forging the blades, not just making a cast. Amazing work!!! I'm not sure if that's the sharpest blades but the best and most accurate ones for sure🔥🔥🔥
I’ve never, EVER, sat through an entire forging and crafting process when watching Blade making or crafting videos. Idk if it was the music, the editing, the PASSION, OR THE CRAFT, OR ALL THE ABOVE! I was captivated, motivated, AND inspired. Praise the Algorithm to helping me find you, and your work, and I fully appreciate the sheer VAST amount of skill, patience, and commitment and love to your craft, and I wish you all the best. Truly, thank you.
這技能樹以經點滿了吧！！鍛造、溫控、銅鑄灌造模、五金藝術加工＂電渡、皮革、電焊、攝影、影片後製， 光其中一樣技能一般人想學就要花很長時間才會的，而且有幾樣東西沒有訓練藝術美感是做不出來的 整個影片滿滿的技術乾貨，好神。
I'm catching this 7 months after it was released. The sword is awesome and the editing of the video is awesome too... quite the combo
The fact that they can Glow is mind blowing, while having insane sharpness is just a masterpiece truly made for slaying Pantheons.
I used to watch a lot of man at arms back in the day. The thing i really liked abou the way you built this is you did absolutely everything by hand and still made them look so authentic and beautiful. No 3d printing molds, not laser cutting, just using smart techniques and pure craftmanship, while also making it look extremely easy. Earned my subscription immediately.
These are, without a doubt, the most authentic blades of chaos I have ever seen! Your skills as a Smith are truly beyond God-Tier!
Oh my Kratos, this is beyond perfect, I love it, I would pay for a pair of these with both of my kidneys.
The midnight urge to learn forging and make this is massive 🔥
How the hell does this channel have only 3.64k subs? This work deserves global recognition imo.
i would pay good money for these without a doubt. this is by far the best and most accurate recreation of the blades, well done
It would take a good deal of money to buy this one. He has a year of labor in making it. I don't know how much labor was hired out, but I doubt he has a hydraulic press that large.
if i have to guess we are around the 12000 dollars mark 😅
@@whirligig_sawbro if I had the funds I would spend hundreds of thousands on this masterpiece
Your craftsmanship is of great excellence and caliber I’m sure you hear all the time your talents of understanding being one with the metal while it take form and the work done on the wood you are a talented genius.
the first thing I see on youtube, after a long day of misery, really got me thinking: "this is so good that it must be a dream"
One word to describe : INCREDIBLE. This is a masterpiece, really show the skills of the craftsman
Dude you nailed these swords. I've seen a lot of people make the Blades of Chaos but these are my fav. I called my brother just to have him watch this video because we are huge God of War fans. We have been playing the games since day one and dude you knocked it out of the park with this one. Im going to check out your other builds.
Man these are so cool. Ever since watching “Forged in Fire”, I’ve always wanted to try to make a blade.
Please keep doing content like this, a well crafted blades of chaos and the music is just so beautiful
Mimir: why don't you try cooking some meat with that blades of yours? Kratos: It will spoil the meat Mimir: is it because of magic in them Kratos: the blood Meanwhile this dude just casually crush garlic with it 💀💀
this was an amazing video. you can really tell the love for smithing work he has. and also thats combined with great camera work and editing to make a love letter of a video to the art of forging and respect for game stories. absolute top tier video. love this
Outstanding craftsmanship. I believe anyone who loves the games would be proud to have this hanging on their walls.
I'm not a fantasy blade kind of person but dude..... this is AMAZING work!
Many have tried to replicate the blades of chaos on youtube, but none made them so realistic and rad like you did, hats off!
A job worthy of a blacksmith worthy of the best gods, such patience and dedication never seen before in the creation of the blades of chaos
I wonder just how beautiful the blade would be if it were shattered and repaired using kintsugi...the lava marks on the blade just reminded me of this technique
The God of Olympus has given you Superb talent.
Это самая потрясающая работа, что я только видел. Идеально тут все, от работы как кузнеца, до монтажа видео и подбора музыки! У вас большое будущее, продолжайте❤
Kratos❤
That is absolutely amazing. What outstanding talent and patience to produce the blades of chaos as accurate and detailed as that. I've never seen anything like it I enjoyed watching the whole process. Well done , you are truly gifted. Amazing.
Not only did he make it out of steel, not only did he even add lava decals into it, BUT HE ALSO MADE IT SHARP AND VIABLE AS A WEAPON?!?!
You are literaly Dr.Stone Craftsman level, unbelievable level of craftsmanship. Nice job!
Surtr: Yeah there's Primordial Fire in those. Kratos: They are NOT of these lands. Surtr: Shouldn't Matter
Very impressive! Not only the project but also by the equipment/shop that you have! Thanks for sharing!
This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a very very long time
Weapon smithing is an art form and no one can convince me otherwise. Beautiful work.
Had goosebumps by the end of this video, the soundtrack definitely added to your presentation....this is what you get for investing 2000 hours into a project....perfection!
This is actually amazing, best work I've seen on any item like this ever. I would 100% pay you whatever amount you ask for to have the Blades of Chaos, I grew up with the God of War franchise and having these would be amazing. Again, fantastic work man!
Jesus. If Disney showed a fraction of the kind of IP passion this dude has, we might still have Star Wars.
Wow, those swords of chaos turned out amazing. The only detail I find is the chains, which I think should be a little thinner, but otherwise it's an exact replica.
I honestly shook multiple times just seeing how beautiful these blades are and the craftsmanship of it all.. Instant subscribe and like from me! Great job!
This is so underrated!! you deserve way more views. This is seriously impressive!
Happy to see your channel gained traction man - well deserved. You do some amazing work with metal.
Hard work, patience and skill at its finest
The superior craftsmanship is next level man. You've created a work of art
I feel like they look so much bigger in game but these are absolutely beautiful and i’d love nothing more than to own a pair ❤
Respect, dude! A lot of work went into this! Amazing result!
I mean...serious man, this work of yours, has no price in the world.
Que ce soit le travail de forge, le design, ou même le montage de la vidéo, franchement, tout est magnifique. Bravo à toi, tu peux être fier !
“A vida é um jogo, ou você aprende a jogar, ou pra sempre ficará no Game-Over.”🎮👊🏻
the blades are awesome but look at the axe in the beginning its outstanding beautiful too. Great work
This many hours into making it and editing the video to post how it was possible is incredible.
DOPE! Funny to recall that Kratos tried several times to get rid of this but it keeps coming back to him like a nightmare hahaha
He did it in the most pain in the ass style, what a hero, nice work my man ❤
Absolute insanity. Sick.
Amazing man, just simply amazing... these things should be in a museum!
Ay don’t think we didn’t see the Leviathan Axe. We know there’s gonna be a part 2 ❤. Fantastic build as usual. Keep it up master of the blade
Gonna need to get some translucent like blue green slime to make it the true cannon look. XD if you really want to wow the art team... As a hint towards the "Eitir imbued."
Una obra de arte. Una artesanía que va a la par de una saga que perdura la barrera del tiempo. Para sacarse el sombrero, felicidades.
Imagine trying to ransack this guys house, only for him to pull up with the Blades of Chaos
Such an absolute BEAST of a build
*This is clearly the best Blades of Chaos replica on KZhead (which means in the world)* ...and that axe in the chest as well. never seen such a perfect copy of an upgraded Kratos' axe. Will there be a video about its creation too? Liked and subscribed.
It looks very cool. I can't even imagine how long it took to recreate something like this. You will definitely gain a million subscribers.
eh c'est vraiment incroyable 🤩 la mise en scene, le travail, et le résultat final !! vraiment bravo !!
Oh man if I could get my hands on those ❤awesome work bud now that’s real talent right there along time to make thank you for the video to watch as you craft them 💪
I am jawdropped. This is just beautiful. The best Blades of Chaos I've seen in this platform. Congratulations, dude!
I'd pay any amount to have a pair of my own like those, extraordinary!
This is genuinely inspirational. Wow man I am blown away
Not much of a commentor of youtube videos but this is astonishingly beautiful.As an Architect myself I couldn't help myself to to notice the engravings of the blades the details in general,the commitment and passion is whole another level.Congratulations bro.Keep up the good work.Greetings from Istanbul! :)
This channel should have more subscribers! Doing a technical commentary over what and how you are doing would be also cool
Isso é arte pura senhores !!! Sensacional
I've always dreamt of seeing these in real life it would be so cool to own.
insane..just insane. Good job! Makes me think back to when i was in school and wanting to be a blacksmith. sadly my teacher at the time said there is not a chance i could make a living from doing blacksmithing in the modern day and talked me into chasing another route in life. Cause i know exactly i would do the same as this, and 100% could make a living from it.
