Final Fantasy Buster Sword
I have pulled together some resources for this sword. There is a link where you can purchase it at amazon.com and there is an instructable that will show you how to make your own. There are also some interesting videos showing people who have made their own.
Cloud wields that enormous sword and now you can too. The one we have isn't as large as the one Cloud carries -if it were it would be too heavy to carry! This one is a full 40 inches long though (that's over three feet!) Learn more on our product page.
Editorial Review from Amazon.com:
Product Description:
This is the blade that everybody wants. The demand for this sword far exceeds the supply. All suppliers have doubled their prices and this item will only continue to increase in price. "Buster" Cloud Strife's weapon comes with a custom a leather blade sheath and leather wrapped handle. Buster measures an overall length of 40 inches, guard is 4 1/2 inches wide and blade length is approximately 30 inches. This is not a battle ready weapon and should be used for display purposes only. The blade is made of polished stainless steel. Get yours before we are forced to increase the price.
The Buster sword is owned by Cloud Strife of the Final Fantasy World and the sword was previously owned by Cloud's friend Zack Fair. If you are looking for information about what games Cloud appears in here is a great wikipedia article about him There is also some more good information about the sword on the Final Fantasy Wikia page here

FINAL FANTASY BUSTER SWORD VIDEOS
Here is a great video Cloud and the sword from SAC CON 2007. The sword appears to be made of a lightweight material because he swings it pretty easily. It appears to be cardboard, tape and aluminum foil but looks pretty good. You could probably make one just like it.
This video is crazy! The guy made his own buster sword (Real Metal) and it is bigger than him. It must weigh about fifty pounds because after about five swings at a pallet he is totally exhausted. Crazy and off the hook version of the sword.
Here is a clip from the video game. It is The Buster sword versus Sephiroth
