You think he just meant the type of weapon (scythe) or that they had a copy of the weapon that she had designed and wanted to use? She said they forge their own weapons, as in build. You know, in the same way a Stormtrooper cosplayer must make their own suit, not buy it. She likely "adapted" (which is more generous then saying "copied") the design from a pre-existing one. Given her "weapon-nerd" personality, she might have picked the coolest weapon she could find, made it... and found it very hard to use. "Uncle Crow" found out she was trying to use it, revealed that he is a scythe wielder, and offers to teach her. (Alternatively, she based it after his weapon, and tries to learn by herself... again, to learn that it's a bit too much for a beginner.)
