This sword has been introduced before on Members Collections and in my Avatar. People have asked questions about it so I decided to take some pictures of my "Great Beast" and finally post it here on the Customization board. There's many unusual solutions in this customization project. I wanted to make this sword fit spot on to my personal needs and ideas. I think this is my favourite and best customization project! It has seen a lot of use and everything seems to function as planned. Ito is lacquered cotton. Ito and kashira are secured with steel wire. Menukis are old silver and iron necklases. They are attached to tsuka with steel wire. Guard is steel. It's designed by me and made by my father who is professional welder. Same is treated with charcoal and ren wax mixture. Thanks.

Aragami, ka?
Somehow this sword reminds me of the movie.
Unique and serious. Really cool. Looks very well executed. Congrats.

Thanks Beowulf! Justin 520, I've never watched FMA, so no. I guess this customization project was probably inspired mainly by these two swords: Albion, The Knecht (Mk II) JT Pälikkö, Schweizer Säbel Attachments:

It just reminds me almost exactly of an anime characters sword.

What anime sword doesn't it remind you of? U asked if the sword was inspired by FMA, which I have seen and I'm racking my brain trying to figure out who's sword your thinking of.

I actually spent a while trying to find the sword Justin520 was talking about. Maybe this one? (I hope it has something to do with FMA) : Here's two more swords which affected the outcome of the Great Beast:
