Shredder's Helmet and Arms Blades in Real Life

There are weapons and armor in stories that are so iconic that no one can say no to having one – if it were possible. Never mind that many of us would probably end up hurting ourselves pretending to be Iñigo Montoya with a semi-sharp blade. Heck, I’d probably end up with a sprain sparring using lightsabers with plastic tubes as the laser.

Those weapons are classic, but you can’t ignore other badass gear like that of Shredder’s helmet and arms blades.

If you can’t get enough of the TMNT like they can’t get enough of pizza, then you’ll love this real life project of Baltimore Knife and Sword. They regularly create weapons that are the stuff geeks’ dreams are made of.

Watch the making of Shredder’s helmet and arms blades and be amazed.

Needless to say, don’t do this at home. Unless you really know what you’re doing or have a death wish.
