TASTE THE RAINBOW BITCH!
GET ME A GAY SWORD!!!
Please tell me that’s just stain work and not how the metal actually looks.
Coloring is likely a side effect of heat treatment, titanium dioxide film or both.
Can be from tempering, but it’s usually hard to get the color that consistent. It could also be anodized or acid treated. There’s a lot of different ways to change the color of steel.
Depends on what it’s made of tungsten for example can do all sorts of colours depending how it’s heat treated
What part of anything on this post points to this being a functional sword? Pretty obviously meant to be an art piece.
It’s not that impractical, but pretty much all swords are for show nowadays. There’s no practical justification to have a dedicated melee weapon, especially the ones that are most effective in combat.
No edge, tang is welded on, the pommel is attached without a handle on it, there is no edge, and even if there was, it’s cheap ass stainless.
I can’t tell if the tang is welded on from this jpeged ass image, and I’m not sure if the pommel is permanently attached or if all handles even need to be attached before the pommel. I don’t know how to tell stainless apart from other types of steel with something that’s freshly forged like this. Also, correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t freshly forged blades generally not that sharp?
I was more commenting on how that general design isn’t totally impractical, not that it’s an amazing sword. It doesn’t look finished and it doesn’t have any obvious mall-ninja design flaws. There isn’t anything so clearly wrong with it that I would write it off as cheap.
