From the Legendary Swords Project

This is one of our most exciting projects to date -allowing you to use the exact same method we used to create our original designs for the Legendary Swords Project and create your own custom swords at a fraction of the normal price for a truly custom made product.

Even if you cannot draw or don't have a particular idea in mind, you can use our free Coronatite Sword Generator HERE and email us the combination you decide upon with any changes and leave the rest to us!

The Legend of Coronatite Blades

In the world of Eletreus, Coronatite is the unobtanium of steels - an inherently magical and rare mineral that for thousands of years has been used to create blades such as the Aelutian Gladius, the Sword of Danu and many other famous and powerful swords of legend. Swords made from Coronatite need no special magical enhancement to reveal their qualities of extreme durability and armor piercing capability - any good blacksmith can make one - though some are further enhanced by additional magic channeled into a rune or glyph. On the battlefield, Coronantite blades smash their way through most other non magical swords and have never failed even in the heat of the most intense combat situations.

The only limitation is length and mass - for the properties of Coronatite only become apparent when within quite strict tolerances and any blade forged from it that is much bigger or much smaller than the classic Gladius acts like a normal steel sword (albeit of high quality, but the armor piercing and extreme durability magical effects do not apply). However, within this limitation of size and mass, a Coronatite sword can take any shape or geometry, from leaf blades to single edged cutting swords - which is demonstrated aptly by the Coronatite Sword Generator - each and every one of the swords made using the generator fall within the mass of an activated Coronatite blade.

A CURIOUS SIDE NOTE WHERE FANTASY MEETS REALITY: The purity and quality of modern steel combined with a perfect heat treatment and a never fall apart sandwich tang hilt construction means that if you were to take one of these modern made blades back to the medieval era it probably WOULD be seen as a magical blade! It would damage and ruin a historical medieval sword and the shorter tempered blade is in reality close to indestructible - capable of splitting a cinderblock and blocks of solid granite with barely a scratch! Makes a great talking point and gives these replicas some real presence that no stainless steel wall hanger could ever hope to achieve. 

HOW IT WORKS/How To Order

Scorpion Swords specialize in tough, no nonsense and fully functional blades based on ancient designs and swords and blades inspired by movies and video games. Have a look at the gallery below to see some examples of their work. They cannot make any swords bigger or hugely different than the style of sword shown below, but within this limitation there are still literally thousands of possible original configurations..

For this project, they will make you a sword using their ultra tough design style of sandwiched full tang construction and perfectly heat treated 1095 carbon steel blade. You decide on the shape and geometry of the blade and, working within their established sword design style, complete it with a solid full tang handle, and decide its dimensions within an overall length maximum of 30".

You can specify the color of the blade - either raw steel, blackened or a two tone effect, add some cool looking eletro-engraved glyphs or your initials, and choose what material you would like the handle to be made from. Choices include black linen mircarta (a solid choice popular with custom knife makers) or a selection of premium quality wood scales such as Zebra wood, Walnut, Bloodwood, Maple and Oak.

To get started - simply select the options you would like for blade and fittings as well as any notes you wish to include and place your order to reserve your spot. Then once you have the order confirmation, simply reply to it with any further instructions and an image file of the sword design you would like made.

The easiest and fastest way to design a unique blade is to use the Legendary Swords Coranitite Sword Generator and send us the pic of your handle and blade combination. But you can just as easily send us a similar styled image within the limitations of the project (maximum overall length 30" with full sandwich tang construction). If there is anything amiss, we will quickly sort it out with you and Chris will schedule your design in and it will be with you in approx 5-7 weeks!

Never before have custom swords been so quick easy and incredibly affordable. So enjoy the process and be sure to share some pics of your design on Facebook or the SBG forums - even using just the generator and simple selection options literally thousands of different designs are possible. Give the generator a try to see if you can't create a really original and cool looking blade and hilt combination..
