No I will try to take a few bolts off of the reservoir tube thingy to see if I can get it out from the fridge to see if I can fix the bad washer or whatever it is.
Ok that is realy cool. I have a Katana that needs refurbishing. It's an Edo period one maybe. Only problem is sending it out of Australia and gettingit back, legally.
Wow I like watching stuff like this good job bro keep it coming 👍👍👍I wish the video is longer :)please tell us how much is 200 k yen is worth in dollars
The reason why it takes so long to polish a katana by traditional techniques is that katanas are polished until they are sharp. They don't grind a cutting edge or bevels into the sword like you would with a European sword.
@@SoloKyoto I wonder what kind of loss they would take? The materials alone cost more than $800 to make that sword. The blade is made with Tamahagane. Then there's the time it takes by a sword maker's apprenticeship of 8 years and a polishers of 10 years to make and polish the Punk Katana. I'm guessing at least 200 hours for everything. So $20 per hour (a joke) would put this package over $5000. With $800 you still have choices. You can buy an authentic WW2 factory made katana...or you could buy a damaged or "flawed" handmade piece. I was thinking on making an offer on an old handmade Nihonto/katana that had what is considered a fatal flaw in collecting. It had the thinnest Ha giri or edge crack that doesn't effect the beauty but renders the sword broken for it's intended use. The seller suggested $2500 and I was hoping for $800-$900 so I passed...but man it was beautiful. There are Japanese auction sites where you can find a variety in your price range but they will have all sorts of issues from rust, scratches (way out of polish) to dents and handles falling apart but hey...it's old and been used. I learned the vocab and attended some sword shows and loved it! I held a $90,000 sword and more often the $4000-$20,000 range. The old timer American sellers were the real treasure...they were fun and full of stories. IIt's their social club. They are dying out and not being replaced.
@@brianpeck4035 If it takes her 3 weeks to just polish the blade, then 800 dollars is pretty crap even for the work hours put into just the polishing. Imagine the making of it too, the materials, and the rest of the furnishings.
Thank you for watching the video 😊 You can check Rumi Tamahagane Hair Ornament here:pekopekobox.com/product/hair-ornament-with-japanese-sword-steel/
She does a very beautiful job at making those jewelry!
That is funny making the punk katana ! Awesome
Rumi is an artist...artists only need a place to practice. They don't need the trappings to be happy.
Could not agree more
Tamahagane translates to "jewel steel" so it is only natural that she takes that next step. :)
Makes sense
I have watched several videos, this is a great channel, just subscribed. Greetings from Chile

What’s their website? I’m traveling there next year and would like to support because of their story.

Probably not a good idea to send it to Japan. If they deem it not to be an antique they will classify it as a weapon and confiscate it.
Where is the link to the earrings?
Love from Berugi! (Belgium)
very interesting subject

For us Americans, thats over $1,300 for her to bless your katana with great sharpness

They are many people in this world interested to own a nihonto katana..but it restricted by country law and high prices..

One thing; not all Katana have a hamon.

Shirasaya
it's just some _very_ functional art. why not call it jewelry? :)
You made that "Punk blade" as a joke but I'm trying to buy it for $800 not a joke. 😐
Knowing that is probably a low ball price for a true Japanese katana of that quality and uniqueness I apologize, I'm broke. 😅
