Hello Everyone! This sword is one of my favorites from the Middle-Earth universe, and one I have been wanting to add to my collection for a long time now. It's first appearance in the Hobbit film series was in "The Desolation of Smaug" when Thranduil frees the Warg Rider's head from his miserable shoulders, but we really get to see it in action during the "Battle of the Five Armies" alongside it's twin.
The original .stl files were slightly smaller than what I was looking for. The original pieces add up to ∼39.5in (1003.3mm), but I wanted the size to be more accurate to the United Cutlery replica which measured ∼41.875in (1063.6mm). This means each piece needed to be scaled up by 6.4%. I have provided these measurements below along with the print settings if you wish to print at my larger scale.
The link to the original 3D files can be found in the video's YouTube discription.
Once the pieces were printed, sanded, attached and primed, I applied silver lead to the entire sword in order to achieve an the authentic movie finish.
