Hello everyone! First time posting a thread to these forums, so please let me know if anything I do or say is uncouth in any way. I'm currently in the process of building a prop sword to look like the ones used in the anime Attack on Titan. Things were going pretty well, but then I got stuck. I opted to use craft foam for the hilt and balsa wood for the blade, but now that the hilt is finished and the blade is nearly there itself, I realize I never thought up a way to attach the two. I'd like for the means of attachment to leave the end product relatively sturdy, and I'm not averse to using nails and the like to get the job done. I'm fine using glue as well, but I don't believe that will do the trick as far as leaving everything solid is concerned. The hilt is about 3 inches thick where the blade is to be attached. Will post pictures as soon as possible. Any help? Thank you in advance!
