The sword measures 90 cm in length and features two 4 mm steel rods running internally as reinforcing ribs. I purchased one-meter-long steel bars, which I then cut to the appropriate length after threading them through the blade.

For printing, I opted for a darker shade of green filament—though you can also choose to apply a coat of paint later on. In my case, I used Sanhe’s water-based spray paint in a deep olive green.

The central bamboo shaft was coated with a layer of shimmering grass‑green glitter powder, followed by a final topcoat of clear protective varnish. You can apply the clear coat in thin layers, applying multiple coats for an even, glossy finish.
