3D Printed Metal Skyrim Swords

For those of you familiar with the video game Skyrim, you will love this. A company called Gateros Plating has 3D printed a couple swords from the game, with a normal FDM 3D printer. They then used a process called electroforming to coat them in metal, and make them look and feel quite legit. The swords, while probably not strong enough and sharp enough to be weapons, could in probably be enhanced by making the metal coating thicker and printing the plastic at a higher resolution.
