    As a musician and amateur classical guitarist myself, usually seeing instruments destroyed (even cheap or broke ones) is somewhat distressing, but I found it to be satisfying in this instance! I think in large because of the efforts you made to positively replace that guitar, and also because the guillotine cut was simply very nice compared to just smashing an instrument.
    EDIT: Also the fact that you honored the instrument with a final performance. Very cinematic and fitting!

    Not really relevant anymore but tatami mats are usually cut wet because a) it's a closer simulation and provides a more consistent cut and b) it doesn't run the risk of damaging the blade as much.
    Note that cutting a wet tatami mat cleanly is easier than cutting one dry because it doesn't dissipate the force in random directions as much.

    The sharper bevel is probably performing worse on the meat because it pushes it less apart, causing the meat to stick to the blade more easily. Probably also the same reason why meat cleavers are thicker, a thin blade or highly sharp bevel angle would more likely result in sticking.

    • @cavemann_
      @cavemann_ 10 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      An astute observation!

    • @fermitupoupon1754
      @fermitupoupon1754 10 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      With a single sided bevel you'd ideally be cutting with the bevel vertical and the flat side of the blade facing away from the sausage. As the cut is being made, the blade has to go in between the fixed sausage and the slice being cut.
      If the flat side of the blade is up against the immobile sausage it just gets pressed into that and the friction just builds up. If the flat side is against the slice being cut, it's much easier to push that out of the way and with only the bevel contacting the sausage friction can't build up as much.
      The reason why meat cleavers are thick, heavy blades is much more simple. The 30 degree bevel has more supporting material behind the edge, so it doesn't dull as easily as a sharper bevel. The mass is just there so the cleaver has more momentum to cut through bone easily. You don't use a meat cleaver to make precision cuts.
      As opposed to a filleting knife, which is flexible and has a very sharp bevel, because you don't want it to cut bone, but rather cut the meat off the bone. So it's light and thin for agility and precision.

    • @KnowArt
      @KnowArt  9 วันที่ผ่านมา +6

      hmm.. I believe most of the meat cutting in a butcher shop is done with very thin blades and that the cleaver is there mostly for the bones, but I could be wrong! Interesting theory

    • @frenchheavy4592
      @frenchheavy4592 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @KnowArt It was just a quick thought that cleavers, being thicker and splitting the meat further out, would have less issue with sticking or friction.
      But, friction would probably be more an issue with thick slabs of meat. A thin slab is more about overcoming the initial resistance of the meat against cutting, where a sharper thinner knife would better suffice.
      Also yeah, I take back on friction being the reason for meat cleavers being thick. I can imagine it might be a small benefit though.

    • @OtakuNoShitpost

    Last time, I had recommended a curved blade like a saber or an axe, but I didn't take in to account something: an axe has a relatively short edge to focus its force in to a small area, and a saber draws across the target rather than push straight down. Thanks for trying it!

    I was trying to cut "rubber tiles" last year - yes, the ones used in gyms and sport-halls. I used the ones from Hornbach, 50 mm thick, and had the unenviable task of making a tight seal around the rounded periphery of a rectangular trampoline. Tried various cutting-tools. The one that worked best was a bread-knife. But it was not about the knife. The least painful operation where I used my other hand to bend the "waste" rubber away from the piece I was trying to keep. The stretch made that the cut was helped along, and more importantly, that the two resulting pieces of rubber did not pinch the knife, in the form of a pair of excellent brake-shoes.

    • @AdityaMehendale
      @AdityaMehendale 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    1st, love the video! So fun. 2nd, the reason the groved blade provided better results is because it still had weight while having less friction. The blade with the center cut out has low friction, but a lot less weight, requiring more force to be applied. The groved blade is actually the best happy medium between the options. Hope this helps!

    • @KnowArt
      @KnowArt  6 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    2:21 you have to also consider you weren't sharpening it with a pinning tool. So easy was getting duller.

Also how much blade is extending away from the carriage/sled matters to as they to stop around that point

  • @iopfarmer
    @iopfarmer 10 วันที่ผ่านมา +14

    The 15° blade problem is not related to the sharpening or more cutting forces. I assume the left-hand sensors of the balance scale are more loaded than the right-hand ones because of the attack angle of the forces. The displayed load is wrongly calculated. The smaller the blade angle, the more you should see this effect, probably. The setup to remedy to that is not trivial...

    Here is why the 45 angle blade works the best: if you think of the forces involved. If you try cutting with a kitchen knife straight down on like a sausage or bread, it will cut poorly, but if you actually cut with the knife, ergo, move it sideways, it will cut much better.
    By angling the blade 45 degrees, you create the sideways blade motion that is needed to actually cut with the blade. If you would have a 45 degree rail instead, so the blade falls in a 45 degree angle, then the flat/straight blade would work better.

  • @HipsterBaby747

      Wow you can change nozels without tools? That’s actually really cool!
      The P1S needs you to disassemble it, unplug a bunch of cables, remove like 10 screws and then put new thermal paste on. It wasn’t very easy…
      Their support also goes over the top with how much they do to help

    In my understanding of cutting mechanics, a cut is only made when the blade slides lengthwise along it’s edge. A good example of this is the Mordhau, where you grab a sword by the blade and biff someone with the handle.
    This might explain why the 45 deg blade was best, as it’s profile ensures the leading edge always slides along the cross section of the ‘neck’, whereas the pointed/flat blades didn’t.
    Anyways, great vid! Look forward to seeing more from you

    I know from chefs knifes that the blade geomerty will make a a better knife even if it was sharpened by the same person & Jig same steel..
    the blade geometry makes a differences depending on what you are cutting.
    this was very interesting to watch, many thanks

    Theory for why the hole blade was worse: the grooves continue all the way down the cutting edge where the most friction is compared to the hole which is just in the center

    Absolutely love that you listened to your commentors and did the test again with the much needed changes.
    I am a knife designer for WTG, so I work with knives on a daily basis. The design of a guillotine blade has always intrigued me to a morbidly fascinating amount.
    The 45° angle is best for cutting, simply because less blade surface is in contact with the medium at one time. The edge is cutting, the medium is pushed away from the blade mass and subsequently it makes for a smoother cleaner cut. In retrospect, it's moving the material away from the blade.
    However for its intended purposes (and clearly history has proven to us it works as is and extremely effectively) I've always been intrigued by a "pointed" blade. The dual edge so to speak.
    A few downsides are the tip would become duller the more it's used. Especially with impacting bone constantly. Plus the added effect of more surface area contacting the medium would slow the blade down as well.
    However that being said, for its intended purposes the tip would indeed impact the spine first and severe the spinal cord. Theoretically speaking I do wonder from a lethality standpoint would it be the more effective killing machine? Speaking purely on speculation due to it by nature being the most effective execution device ever made. Still interesting nonetheless.
    I know budget is a factor however I would love to see a more fleshed out and better designed frame for this. Perhaps even take notes from the more modern designs where a crank and pulley was used to push the blade against leaf springs for added speed. This design was popularized by a certain dictator in world history, it could utilize a much shorter drop thanks to the additional speed of the leaf spring propulsion.
    Once again excellent video!

    The single edge blades allow the part to peel away from the blade , reducing friction. Angling the cutting edge allows slicing rather than sheering action.

  • @Joseplh
    @Joseplh 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

    My theory on the pointed blade and why it failed as bad as it did is because the sausage held together with tension from both sides as the blade pushes it to the left and right. The 45-degree blade on the other hand avoids the tensile strength as it "peals" the sausage from one side to the other.
    The 45-degree angle also provides a cutting action compared to the flat blade, however it is a bell curve, because the greater the angle the more friction from the face of the blade is in contact as it makes a shallower cut.

  • @obscurity3027
    @obscurity3027 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Research how Japanese katana blades were sharpened differently than European sword blades. At a zoomed in cross section, the katana had a convex shape which allowed the blade to “push” material away from the cutting edge. The European blade’s cross section had a concave shape which caused more friction as it passed through material. This was the key to the sharpness of the katana, and it was why one swing could cut a man in half.

  • @Derzuel

    The reason the blade with its center removed did worse than the blade with grooves carved into it is due to the blade having more give in the actual cutting edge resulting in needing more force to push the blade through. The blade with grooves carved into it still retained its structural integrity while the grooves themselves reduced over all surface contact thus reducing drag on the blade. This is in fact a phenomenon that is utilized in some high end kitchen knives, but usually more for keeping stuff from clinging to the blade than for making the knife cut better.

  • @arscharschdolan3413

    Just a thought, I think the mats are soaked in water normaly. That would change the properties of the material a bit. (less bouncy and more packed together, I think) Maybe you try that out too?^^ Also it is just satisfying to watch stuff get guillotined :D

  • @stonehermo6531
    @stonehermo6531 2 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    My reasoning for the sharper angles generally working with lesse force is due to the resulting direction of the reaction force. As the blade gets steeper, the normal reaction to the cutting edge becomes more horizontal. Since you primarily measure vertical force, this should mean a smaller portion keeps getting measured every time the cutting angle gets steeper. This does make me wonder if a gentler, steeper curve would make that one curved blade work better. Guess theres more guillotine shenanigans to be had
