The video that you see below comes from That Works, starring master blacksmith Ilya Alekseyev.

You may be very familiar with him as That Works was created alongside Matt Stagmer, bringing back the team behind the popular series Man at Arms: Reforged. 

One of the elements that makes this build so interesting is that Alekseyev sticks to the lore of the game to the point of using real meteorite ore, which incidentally makes everything more challenging. 

As fans of the previous series may remember, he is a master of several crafts and skills, and he shows many of them in this video, including the creation of the hilt and the etching and gem setting for its brooch. 

You can watch it below.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
