Swords from nails are cute: for how-to reference, here’s a video.
And here are some more ex-nails.
This looks like something Terry would have given the Nac mac Feegle. (NB, must glow blue in the presence of lawyers…)
If you want something bigger, there are plenty of photos of handsome knives made from old US railroad spikes…
This one is so well-finished that it looks incomplete without a proper grip; of course a grip would conceal its origin. YMMV. Swings and roundabouts..
Not just knives…
There are even swords (with extra metal added, of course).
There’s an attractive Middle Earth Elvish look to these.
Man that first one is like swords for mice
A lot of intermediate-beginner blacksmith classes teach you how to make knives out of US railroad nails. It is a lot of fun but takes time and resources. Support your local blacksmith! Take classes!
i’m gonna use my hacking powers to do an all pyjama run in pokemon y
Mission parameters set.
Fuck that noise.
YOU’RE NOT MY REAL MOM
God this is gonna suck when I get to Frost Cavern.
Still holding on tight to that 3DS I don’t have and couldn’t figure out how to get back. Our mom’s probably holding it hostage.
Haha I’m never going back in there in case the game notices I’m not wearing the default outfit and forces me into actual clothes again.
Oh hey, do you want to see how it resolved the issue of not having a full render model?
The short answer is it didn’t.
Every now and then notes for this float past my dash and I’m forcibly reminded that I had to stop because I got trapped behind Nurse Joy’s counter and couldn’t figure out how to leave the Pokémon Center because the camera clipped through the floor into PokéHell.
