Forging Sokka's Meteor Sword from Avatar: The Last Airbender! [video]

The characters of Avatar: The Last Airbender have mystical abilities that allow them to bend the elements of nature to their will. However, one character, Sokka, did not possess this ability and instead relied on his trusty boomerang when he got into a fight. That is until he met a sword master and forged his own sword from a recently fallen meteorite. This "space sword" as Sokka called it looked beautiful!

Thanks to sword maker and prop master Tony Swatton we can now see what it would look like in real life! In his newest video, Swatton uses actual meteorite pieces ($1,652 worth!) to forge Sokka's Meteorite Sword. Can we take a moment to realize how amazing that is? He made the sword using actual meteorites! It is always fun watching Swatton work but this sword was especially fun since I am a big fan of the show and Sokka's character. In the actual episode we got to see Sokka forge this sword step by step so it's really cool to see it done in real life. This video is a lot of fun so I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did.
