This is wrong. I trusted this comment and finished my game without creating the cursed variant. I had the Greatshield and Greatsword (uncursed) of Artorias, and all the other needed items except Drake Sword. Hellkite Dragon was dead so I started the NG+ who-knows-which, my aim was to get the Drake Sword, get the achievement, and retire that character. But the achievement did not work until I had to finish the half of the game and reach Giant Blacksmith. Very frustrating indeed.

So in short, Nier1411 may not be wrong. Maybe it worked for him. But for my case, the achievement did not work until I crafted the 3rd Soul of Sif item. So if you have the materials to spare, do not do what I did and risk it. Just get all three Soul of Sif items.
