Thanks to Activision for sponsoring this video. Check out the new season of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone 2.0 today by clicking the link - bit.ly/3USFTng #sponsored #COD_Partner #modernwarfare3 #MWII . Making the Ashika Island Katana. We made this Samurai Sword in as traditional methods as possible. The fittings were the only thing made from modern material and we found an interesting way to make those as well. The #katana blade is made from Tamahagane from Japan. This build was created by Ilya Alekseyev and filmed and edited by Matt Stagmer (Stalkertron).

A metal worker myself, I can confidently declare, that if I had all of this man's equipment, machinery, facilities, and a thousand years, I could stand by an anvil smacking and cursing the entire time and still not create anything nearly half as fine as the blades that he turns out regularly. It's a rare thing for us humans to find what we are truly phenomenal at. I would liken this to Michael Jordan's command of basketball, Freddie Mercury's musical gifts, or Colin McRae's prowess behind the wheel. Simply masterful.
