How to make Sora's Keyblade

PLEASE CHECK THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION FOR FAQ!

I figured that since I had taken pictures of my keyblade as I was making it I would make a tutorial. This is actually an edited version with different music and an extra picture. Please feel free to ask any questions and give any advice that you may have. Thank you for watching my video!

Measurements:
The keyblade/pole is 3ft. long and about 1 1/4in. wide.
The key part is about 7in. tall and sticks out 4 1/2in. from the pole and is the same width as the pole.
---------
The Hand Guard Measurements are as follows:
The handle is 8 1/2in. tall, with enough space in the opening to hold with two hands depending on the size of your hands, about 4 3/4in.
The top of the handle is 8 1/4in. across and the bottom is 10 1/2in. across.
---------
The blue section just above the hand guard is 2in. tall.

FAQ:
What is the music used in the video?
The music is Simple and Clean by Utada Hikaru.

Are you selling the keyblade?
I am not selling my keyblade, nor am I going to make more of them.

Where can I get the materials that you used?
Wooden Dowel--Hobby Lobby, Michael's, or other craft stores.
Paint--Hobby Lobby, Michael's, or other craft stores.
Foam--Hobby Lobby, Michael's, Lowe's, Home Depot, or other craft stores.
Mickey Chain--Hobby Lobby, Michael's, or other craft stores.

What did you use to cut the foam?
I used either a butter knife or a steak knife and they worked fine for me. You can buy an actual electronic foam cutter from Hobby Lobby, Michael's, other craft stores, or online, but it is a bit pricey.

Just a weird question, can you like pick it up and hit people with hit? XD

[Wytewinde]

@RinnieJay The foam isn't sturdy enough to be able to hit people with it. My brother broke mine doing that. So, I don't recommend you make it if you need it for fighting, fake or real.

HEY WHERE DO U GET THE WODEN DOWEL AND FOAM?

[Wytewinde]

@megacrystal58 I got the wooden dowel at Hobby Lobby, but you can also get them at Michael's. I got the foam at Hobby Lobby as well, but you can get foam from Michael's, Lowe's, and Home Depot as well.

where did you get the mickey chain?

[Wytewinde]

@jasmineisvored I bought the chain from Hobby Lobby and I made the Mickey Mouse shape myself out of foam paper and then painted it silver.

[Wytewinde]

@VerixInfernoWolf Not really, I just believe in attention to detail and accuracy. Thank you, tough.

imma try to make a keyblade but i didn't know how! but i searched the videos and this one has got to be one of the best videos that has helped me! (still haven't even gotten to step 1! too lazy!) my cousin told me how his friend made one out of pipes and old wood. i didn't want to bug anyone for a trip to the store which would cost like $80! so i forgot about it and just got into different stuff. but today i felt like watching the old vids i used to watch. now im BACK TO KINGDOM HEARTS! OBSESED!
