Forging the Sword of Omens from Thundercats! [video]

Tony Swatton from Men at Arms (master master swordsmith and propmaster) has forged one of my favorite swords as a child growing up; the Sword of Omens from the television show Thundercats. The Sword of Omens in the show was wielded by the character Lion-O. Watching the forging process of the weapons that Swatton creates is always fascinating and you learn something new each time. The cool thing about this particular video is that at the end there is a special guest. Matthew Mercer, voice of Tygra on Cartoon Network's Thundercats, makes an appearance and wields the sword and tries it out. Very cool. I still think it is a shame that the new show was canceled.
