Forging a GIANT Axe from [Monster Hunter]

- Forging the Greatsword Axeblade. We finally forge a giant weapon from Monster Hunter. Monster Hunter is known for its huge weaponry and the Axe Blade is no different. The team will have it's hands full with this build. There will be everything to make it come to life! Forging, fabrication and tons of grinding. We will use power hammers, 2 x 72" grinders , hand grinders , welders, torches and plasma cutters. Blacksmithing and Bladesmithing on a giant or should I say Monstrous scale. This is not a switch axe from MHW but perhaps we will do that next.

Thanks to Monster Hunter Rise for sponsoring this video. Be sure to check it out on PC today bit.ly/ThatWorksRise
When you folks do huge builds like this, you should put in the finished weight of the weapon. Give people some perspective on just what you're swingin' there. But awesome build. Always enjoy your works.
Can you guys build the van's 🪓 from reign of fire please
Could you guys show in depth how to make crucible steel? And is it necessary to break the crucible?
Just a idea, you should make some traditional armor/shields of various forms and ages and do a colab with Demolition Ranch. Would be cool to see how they hold up against modern weapons.
can you name the background music that you used in this video. would be really nice to know some of those pieces as well
I’d like to see you guys make a proper switch axe with the moving parts and everything
Wanted to get this one done first! All Im saying!
First, they get the mechanics of the switch axe, but then.... Charge Blade
@@theKninja104 that would be a feat of engineering and I'm all for it
Me too
It would be a nightmare though. It doesn't work at all in the game, so they would have to figure out the mechanism from scratch.
This video felt different, but seemed like you guys had a lot of fun in the making and that was awesome to see. Really enjoying the channel!
We did a lot of things differently in this one. New camera and no voice overs just work.
@@ThatWorks I disagree. The jump cuts, random close up, no detail to what is going on and no passing of knowledge detracts from it in my opinion.
@@josephrector8735 There will be a full voiced over version of the video on the Patreon and at least 1 video a month like that.
@@josephrector8735 I think you can glean most of what they are doing if you watch their content regularly, and from other comments this seems to be a new video type. Bonus clips from a Patreon if you will. I like it. Even if I can't sub to the Patreon. At least i can see some of it.
That's the pop rivets. Michael Cthulu closed this window in disgust when he saw that.
I’m late but man it was worth it, beautiful work
Thanks brother! It was a fun and challenging build.
Axe Blade...yeah this was sponsored alright.
Looking at the size of the build: "well, RIP their shoulders..."
Very cool build, well done! Thanks for sharing it!
Fantastic project, really cool to finally see a weapon from Monsterhunter!
Thank you! It was time!
@@ThatWorks You know they have some things that are actually small enough to use as actual weapons? :D Nodachi and daikatana size stuff, but they have them. :p the metal long swords in that game look really cool too. :D
Alright: tried and true request coming -> Golden Sun 's Gaia Blade. That'd make a nice bronze build. Maybe making a full greatsword out of bronze will be an interresting challenge ?
Like a bronze blade? I’m no expert but I think there’s a reason Bronze Age swords were all super short.
@@loganvetsch8979 Well, that would be the challenge then ! :p (or at least coat it in bronze or paint it xD)
OMG YES. i love golden sun
@@KalaamNozalys they can make a steel blade, heat a little and brush with a brass wire wheel, they can electroplate it and so on
@@kassiog.6595 That's also what I thought, though it'd be interresting to see if a wide bronze blade would be doable
the camera trick , at the end , making the axe look light was EPIC.
I dont know what you are talking about
Finally, a Monster Hunter weapon!
Honestly, I'm surprised you went for this over something like, oh Iron Gospel(Iron Long Sword), The Iron Sword and Shield or Kakaru Kumo Naki (Mizutsune Long Sword) but this is still awesome!
This was just the first and not the last!
@@ThatWorks Yooo I can't wait!
So fully functional charge blade next then right?
Ill also settle for the gun hammer.
Been waiting for this since MHW
Though I'm more of a lance guy, I love seeing all monster hunter content, so incredible to see a weapon from the games I love so much brought into the real world through some amazing people!
Thank you Ramen! That means a lot to us!
not what I was ever expecting from this channel but I love MH so go off guys
I could watch Ilya on the power hammer all day! He makes it look so easy. Awesome build!
he spends a lot of time on it!
We are being spoiled. First a small but awesome historic build from Man at arms: Reforged (a rondel dagger) and now you guys from That Works with an awesome Monster hunters build
Wait maar is still going?
@@ShugoAWay Apparently, yes
@Renkhar (FoxPonyShift2013) what did they just go back to the old guy who seemed to laser cut everything or did they try to hire someone to replace Borat and Matt
Great build, great video, and a great final product.
Downloading the demo now to show some support!
You should make your interpretation of the twin scimitars of Drizzt Do'Urden, Icing Death and Twinkle.
YES!!!! Been saying this for YEARS
Cool build, your videos always make my day!
Wow. Great to see you guys use a plethora of metal working skills in this video. Every conceivable cutting technique, several grinding techniques, welding and forging. A bit of everything.
Thats what builds like this take!
Great work. You guys are an inspiration.
That thing is a BEAST!!! The whole team got in on this one... Loved it!!!!!!!
Amazing work, guys! Maybe this time it wasn't that much about forging, which is expected when you do something over-the-top like that, but you still showed a great skill in using different skills, from plasma cutting to forging, it was real pleasure to watch! And if you want to make something else from Monster Hunter, but in a more traditional way, i suggest Legendary Bang sword and shield from Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. It has an interesting shape, engravings so Ilya can show off a little bit more, and an overall interesting tribal motiffs coming from it.
There was a good blend of techniques.
@@ThatWorks thruly, there was. Back in the days, your work in Men at arms: Reforged sparked my interest in smithing, so i always eagerly wait to see more of your projects, you always deliver, guys, thank you!
@@ThatWorks haha, one sword I don't know if anyone could make IRL: the Tholian Crystal sword in Star Trek Online.... why? well.. because it is a mostly metal sword with crystals that stretch the length of the blade.
Great build guys. The turkey strutting through the shop was a surprise!
Cool project. I know of the series. Never played, but with weapons that have aesthetics like that, I am not surprised it is a hit.
Gotta admit...that looked heavy af.
it wasnt light thats for sure
I'm not sure why, but watching the scales fall off as the metal is forged is fascinating to me
Might be because it is satisfying as hell. Especially when twisting
Even when you’re the one forging it is fascinating, except when you’re on the finishing passes and then it’s annoying.
Really enjoyed this build guys!!! Awesome!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you my friend!
I always love your more ractical builds most, but I have to admit: this is the most real a _Monster Hunter_ weapon has ever been!
Thats why we chose to make this. People have made sweet props from monster hunter but I wanted something all steel and real!
7:36 still have your turkey infestation I see, and that one survived Thanksgiving and Christmas! Nice build to get Chris in on, great camera work at the end.
thank you! We are starting to step up the production!
I hope some Dual Blades are coming in the future. ⚔
It would be amazing he make the Ragnell and Alondite from Fire emblem Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn
Sure is a great pair of swords
What about tengen uzui twin chainswords demons Slayer
1:30 his ear tunnel matches the holes in the hood. Looks like you can shove a lace into one hole and it would come out from the second.
odd
Wow very nice hand cutting of the axe blade and forging it is really impressive the craftsmanship of you guys! I hope you guys enjoyed making it as much as I enjoyed watching you make it!
We did! had its challenges but it was a fun puzzle to solve.
Great weapon, great editing, great music!
Thank you very much!
Absolutely beautiful. I used greatswords a lot in World, and that axe design was always my favorite. It absolutely looks like something designed to take a dragons head off.
What a monster kick ass build!!!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Considering the artistic path the channel takes, i honestly didn't expect a Monster Hunter build.
we do a little bit of everything!
Awesome video, and an awesome build too
Thank you Ramon!
Great vid guys. To be honest, I would have thought something like this would be more up Michael Cthulhu's alley than your shop, but it's great to see you tackle ginormous projects like this too.
I was thinking the same thing. I think they should have a little friendly competition for charity.
We dont limit ourselves to one type of thing. Sometimes a huge challenge is fun.
This build is insane. Great job everyone.
Thank you evil !
Functioning gear lock Charge Blade weapon of reasonably wieldable size is a must.
If you ever feel useless just remember that there is a pommel on the monster-hunter axe
Not sure why- the pommel serves its purpose just fine.
@@AtelierMcMuttonArt pommels were/are for balancing the weapon, aswell as preventing hands slipping and weapon flying out of the hand.
both of these are not achieved with this pommel as;
1) it would need many more kilograms of metal to actually start balancing the weapon
2) this weapon is essentially unsafe to hold onto (unless you use the ground to stop the weapon, as in the video) as you would have to stop many kilograms MULTIPLIED by the speed you managed to swing it.
can also think of other things the pommel fails at, this is not a peened blade so its unnecessary, also not a talwar style weapon where the pommel shape may ensure 'correct' wrist position when slashing.
@@omfgitsrayleigh848 The MH Greatsword is an extreme chopping weapon, so the pommel wouldn't be used to alter the point of balance.
It *is* used to prevent it from slipping out of your hands, though- remember that this is from a fantasy game where the player is several hundred times stronger than an actual human. They use the ground to stop it with their stronger attacks, but they do have several horizontal swings that would make use of the pommel.
@@AtelierMcMuttonArt while i could say they also need to weigh much more to not be thrown around by the weapon, wouldnt the HUNDREDS of times greater strength give them sufficient grip strength?
I.e if ur "strong" enough to swing this, it would never slip out of your hands.
@@omfgitsrayleigh848 I have to say- I don't understand some folks' insistence on attempting to force reality into something that's clearly supposed to be unrealistic.
If we must continue down this line of inquiry, then there are numerous situations where one's grip can't be easily maintained, regardless of how strong they are, such as the grip getting wet.
New Man At Arms and That Works episode on the same day!
To think i'm able to witness a real great sword from my most favorite video game. Thank you!!!
If you ever wish to craft another all mostly steel great sword, I would love to see you guys make a Ravager great sword.
This is SO COOOOOOL, well done!!! 😊
Thank you Luckerz!
Badass build, That Works crew.
thanks Blue!
@@ThatWorks Anytime. Looking forward to the next sword build you guys make. Or dagger.
Got the notification for the vid while playing rise lol :)
So entertaining to watch and the music is great !!
Thank you Viper!
What i really want to know is how much did that weigh. Thought it was funny that in testing u had it supported just out of frame. The axe head alone would make it unwieldy as hell
yea its was 100 lbs with a 60 lbs axe blade.
bruh awesome build, always loved the fantasy builds
As a switch axe main...i wanna see you guys make a swaxe.
Closest thing we're going to get for now. May get one in the future though!
Finally a monster hunter weapon and you went with the larger class of weapon. would be nice to see you guys split a sword and shield set between you two. perhaps the hunters sword.
That could be fun
Damn, it's always a treat to see you guys build these. Draws inspiration to us craftsmen ♥️
That’s the best part of what we do! Providing a spark to others to create !
Years of waiting for an MH build and did not disappoint!!! Hope this isn't the last one(maybe dual blades, longsword or sword and shield).
tbh needs more views or this is the last one :(
This looked like a very heavy build. Good work guys.
When you fight monsters that are often 10 times your size, the smallest of which are just as tall as you, you NEED a big weapon!
@@DJROCKSTAZ imagine how complicated and heavy it would be for building a Switch Axe
@@reap3rofsouls271 Don't even wanna think about how heavy that thing would be. And it'd be impossible to get the morphing mechanisms right.
@@DJROCKSTAZ maybe not "impossible" but certainly difficult. Impossibly difficult even. Definitely a lot of trial and error. But the weight alone would be enough to make anyone less than maybe a power lifter not even want to try.
@@reap3rofsouls271 So then there'd be no point in wielding it anyway...
easily the best monster hunter weapon build I've seen
Wow thats saying a lot! Ive seen some crazy builds! TY
Wonderful direction.
TY TY !
I'd love to see you guys do a short series where you do mythological weapons. Like Odin's spear Gungnir, or the grass cutter sword, etc.,
Damn the music you guys picked makes me want to grab that axe and go hunting!
*Excellent!*
thank you!
awesome axe
Nice work buddy
thank you Travis
Awesome brother,,,,, bravo
thanks QIQ
Whoa! That is one mean axe‼️😱👍🏼
the meanest!
Imagine if you guys got to do a showdown again. One where you each make a weapon, inspired/from a game.
Then again, I'd love to see a showdown in general.
Ilya isnt a fan of challenge episodes but they were always a blast.
Tsk tsk, didn't wait for a full charge once...
Good stuff!
Awesome great video great show
Really great work. I'm a huge Monster Hunter fan, and also have enjoyed so many of your builds. Maybe one day you will tackle Guts' Dragonslayer in honor of the late Kentaro Miura?
I don't know who edits these videos, but they deserve a raise.
Always learning! Matt shoots and edits the videos!
Love all your stuff. Would like to see a build of a weird traditional knife or sword. I know you have done them before.... they my fave.
Next video will be right up your alley then! Weird, historical and cool!
Seeing you guys plasma cutting this blade reminds me of the people in Michaelcthulhu's comments that have been saying for years that he should learn how to forge, without realizing how dificult, if possible, would be to forge some of the comically big blades he makes.
Its always more about how big of a forge it would take
@@ThatWorks And how big of a bladesmith
I like y’all’s productivity supervisor the turkey lol walks in checks your work leaves lol
Every day! We have to keep up to standards !
Великолепная работа, смотрю и вдохновляюсь👍
Greatsword my fav weapon!
yea? Glad we could help!
So nice
Awesome build, so nice to see something from Monster Hunter! And that camera trick hahahaha
On a side note, where can I get the names of the songs used? Some real bangers!
perhaps I will start adding the titles to the discription
I would really like to see you guys make a rapier with a matching left handed dagger. It would be great to see you also make a full suite of armor that is fully hardened and tempered.
Yea those are both in the plans.
I am super surprised that you guys were able to carry and swing that greatsword. That must've been really heavy and should have been applying so much torque from the end.
Go back and look closer...
@@ThatWorks I was laughing so hard at those scenes. :'D So good!
@@Revonlieke it was like 10 degrees outside or we would have done even more.
@@ThatWorks I saw the quick release 🤣🤣🤣
Was wondering how Ilya was prancing with that gigantic slab. And here I thought it was just tru slav powah
That thing is insanely huge. One heck of a lawn ornament. 😜
Coolest mailbox axe ever!
the gator skin wrap is such a cool touch
Yea. One of my favorite little details. It was just textured leather.
Daaaaamn! Do a charge blade next!!!!
Wow !!!!!!!!!!!! Two thumbs way Up !!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Jerry!
Good video 👍🏻
Cool axe
It would be super cool to see you guys make the classic Infinity Blade from the Infinity Blade series. Always thought that was the coolest sword ever when I was a kid.
You know the main reason we stayed away from it is that our friend Ugo made one for the company in a none rushed timeline and it was perfect. I never thought we should even try after I saw his.
Haver you guys made anything like the Sutton Hoo sword, pommel, spear and helmet? Thanks.
If anyone needed a demonstration that you guys took all the nerd cred with you when you left Man At Arms, they got it today.
HAHA thanks...I think!
I'm even later than the previous person, but, yeah, I agree: beautiful work! Love the finish on the whole thing, the metal and the leather. Nice and gritty :-D
Thank you John. We tried to get it as close to how it is in game as possible with a tiny bit extra flair.
@@ThatWorks That worked well; it's very clear!
Awesome, MonHun is my favorite franchise
what is your fav all time weapon for MH
Man, what a beautiful greatsword. That's a tail remover right there.
Would remove anything you hit ! TY
Y’all are getting into Michael Cthulhu range with this beasty. Beautiful as always.
Sometimes we make silly big stuff too!
ooow sexy new logo, what a team ya'll are. The weapon cam is so brand new they NEED to start doing that in movies lol
Right? I know we will be using it more and more! THanks for the comment and for watching.
I was hoping you guys would do a rise build! (Was kinda hoping it'd be dual blades but this is still kick ass!)
There is still time to possibly do another. Which dual blades is your favorite?
That first song reminded me of that Runescape Machinima entry where the characters end up doing a version of Riverdance.
close to it
I.... Never thought I see the day they Make a Monster Hunter weapon.... WOAH 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😍😍😍😍😍😍
As always, that was epic.
I'd still love to see Sō'unga from Inuyasha 3
amazing work i'd like to see you make kylig
That could be a fun challenge
Enjoyed watching the build
There’s a lot of work in that!!
I want to see Chris throw that…
Hes trying to figure out a way !
Only a small amount of forging bit upsetting really lmao great build guys
Three of the main pieces were forged. What else would you have wanted to see forged?
i want to know what genre of music this is. tavern rock? beautiful forge by the way. wish i had the money to deck out my own forge lol!
Hole shit guys! thats awesome! such a great weapon on Rise especially!
thank you Rev!
I would've loved to have seen a more 'practical' version of the weapon that keeps the length and has functional switch locks to go from a pole ax to full blade. Could shrink the bulk and blade size down to make it as long as it looks cool.
It's a Great Sword, not a Switch Axe despite its looks, so it's not transforming.
Heres a puzzle if i cut steel with a tourch id need to grind the cut back to smooth. However cutting with an angle grinder would mean way less clean up .. thoughts?
