Sadore

Sadore (サードレ) was a craftsman, who in his youth set out to find a material he could carve into a great sword that could rival any other.

Background
He eventually came upon the Gigas Cedar, and became friends with the man in charge of cutting the tree at that time, Garitta. He attempted to climb to the very top of the tree and cut off a branch, so that he could carve a sword from it, but spent 3 days without even a cut left on the branch. He asked Garitta to inform him if the tree is ever cut down in his life time.

Many years later, Kirito and Eugeo came to Sadore, and asked him to make a sword from the branch of the Gigas Cedar. In astonishment, Sadore accepted, and told the duo that he will have a great sword for them ready in one year. Sadore wasted many of his tools crafting the sword but after a full year, he finally completes it. He told Kirito that he could have it for free, if he had the strength to lift and swing it, which Kirito demonstrated for him. Sadore then told Kirito to give it a proper name and that the sword will be a signature of his shop. Kirito said that he will think about a proper name for the sword.
