You can craft the Buster Sword at any forge. The only items you’ll need for this mod to work are 20 steel ingots, 4 gold ingots, 4 leather strips, and the Steel Smithing perk. We also love the newly added Sephiroth’s Masamune and double-bladed katana Souba as well as the one-handed, dual-wielding function.

There’s also an alternate available for this mod if you’re playing Skyrim SE, which features the two-handed Buster Sword from the Final Fantasy VII Remake. This one is available in 4K, 2K, and 1K resolutions. You can also find this mod for Skyrim.
