I spend a lot of time in my shop working on blades, and when I'm not, I'm usually watching videos about bladesmithing. This is some fine work! The effort to show the making of all the fittings, saya, tsuba, and tsuka. Great job! I love the shinogi zukuri blade with the longer kissaki/boshi. It's beautifully done. I can't say enough good about this piece. You should take great pride in this work. Thank you for sharing your work and taking the extra time to film it for us.
Thank you , friend. Your comment really cheers me up. And in this exact moment I really needed some cheering up :) I watched and read a lot of materials about these blades and I wanted it to be close to the real examples. I also know that it's far from them. I hope that in future I'll have the chance to make more and improve myself more :)
This is the best modern-technique video I’ve seen for a tanto. Has all the fittings and everything, minus the menuki (handle ornament). Any modern bladesmith (including myself) ought to have respect for the time, effort and skill that went into this blade. Well done!
Thank you , now when i decided to leave it for myself I plan to make a menuki and rewrap the handle with paper corners in the ito when I have the time :)
Dude I agree usually I find it a little obnoxious when watching people make anything like this, but this is the first time I watched this and appreciated the work put into it and allowing for the machines to do the hard and tedious work and the rest being done more traditionally!
Your file and belt work is really fine!!! Great job! I can’t imagine to see what you would be able to do with a full shop with the best tools and machinery!!!
thank you , I made it for a month , but I didn't work every day , I worked on 1 more project at the same time and the filming made things slow. If I work only on it maybe it will take 1-2 weeks
6:08 you’ve invoked the muse-in this case, This Old Tony. 😊 Gotta say, the finished product is magnificent. I love the blade and all those fittings come together perfectly. For someone who claims to not know what he’s doing, you sure know how to get results.
These are the kinds of videos I like to see. I’ve seen so many tanto videos and they don’t even make Most of the hardware correctly like you have. Good job man.
Thank you , I just couldn't skip most of the fittings. Yes it takes a lot of time to mate them , but it's also so much fun. I knew someone will appreciate it :)
Beautiful work Bud. Just a tip for you from a woodworker, when you split a piece of wood in half for a handle, or scabbard, glue them with the outside of the growth rings together. Your handles will never warp or split
dude just because the hamon isn't especially neat, doesn't mean you didn't do an excellent job in forming it properly. I personally like the rougher look of it. It's a quite charming bit of untidiness that helps distinguish it from most of the examples you see, and i really think that adds to it.
Huge respects to you sir, I don't think I've seen a single video of the making of a tanto/wakizashi/katana that did everything as right as this, even down to the shitodome, this is truly fantastic. (Bar maybe the "samegawa" but I can't hold that against you as the real stuff is difficult to get a hold of) Bladesmith to bladesmith, hats off to you.
Thank you for the nice words my friend. There are videos of people making katanas/tantos/ wakizachis that are on a much higher level than mine. I even got alot of good information from them ("That works" channel and "Tetrahymena" ) but the majority of the videos on the topic are very far from tanto indeed. I also have much more to learn and I hope that soon I'll be able to start working on something like that again. cheers!
@@RustLegion yeah the that works channel and and most of the old man at arms videos where Ilya takes the lead are very good for staying true to tradition, but very few show every single step of the process how your video does :)
For the ito wrapping, i recommend a vice. Itll give you a REALLY tight grip. I also recommend using skate laces instead of shoe laces, especially the thick kind. These both will give you such a tight grip that you wont even be able to move the wrapping at all. I even go the extra mile to lightly scorch my wrapping to give it a shiny and tightened look that also gives it a little bit of sweat resistance. Wonderful video!!!
Thank you for the tips , I replaced the shoe laces with proper ito wrap a few months after the video :) Yes I should make myself a special fixture for the handle so I can clamp it on my vice :) For my next tsuka project I will try to make my setup better. Cherrs
@@RustLegion you just got yourself a other loyal subscriber. Good stuff man love you videos! One craftsmen to another! Just saw your forge welding bike wheel video im gonna try it myself! Didnt know bite parts had decent steel
Love how much time was put in this blade/project especially the habaki with those small details hamon looks nice I'm japanese sword practitioner. Love your work and good content and you probably inspire others to forging most importantly good kid looks really authentic to a real modern japanese blade with a real ito will look different.
Thank you. I replaced the materials for the tsuka with real ray skin and real(as real as some online shop can sell you) ito cord. Still no menuki and I couldn't figure out how to do the wrap with the paper wedges, but this will be for the next similar project :)
@@RustLegion I wanted to do a battle wrap on my cold steel wakizashi due its use and yesterday I polished it using 800 grit for a better practical finish
so many things done so very well, but some things were also done very poorly and it really brought down the total quality of the build considerable. Please make another one because the Blade and the Habaki were quite well made, everything else needs a LOT of work.. Reply if you want specifics on what you need to improve and HOW to do those improvements. You seem passionate. Keep it up.
Yes of course there are a lot of things made wrong. It's the first such knife I made. I was limited by my materials and tools and my knowledge. Yes I would like to hear your specific information on what was made wrong and how to improve it. Cheers!
Lord knows I only have the patience to cook pasta to feed myself than making this. Beautiful work and nice knowing where all the parts came from. Wish I can order one and afford it
You've got a lot more knowledge than most my friend you actually made the whole fitting set for that blade when most don't even go half as far as you did great blade bro
Really good mate! ! That hamon was a money shot! You've got a spectrum of skills across smithing, leather, sharpening,timber, This is 2 years later I bet your ito maki got better , I started with shoelaces too 👍 ( ended up on paracord- it is just the most practical and can bind so hard)
Thanks , I changed the ito with one that I got from aliexpres :D Unfortunately I haven't made anything like that since then. Maybe I should make one soon :)
Veeery nice build, earned a sub. I especially like and value the detailed proces that you showed here and as a fellow bladesmith I can say it sure helps (I am curently making one tanto too, but in shirasaya). Btw I like the raw and unedited look of this video, it is far more nicer than some overedited ones, guess I will inspires myself for my future videos. Best regards.
Thanks man glad you liked it and I hope that you can he’s some useful info out of it. I try to make my videos showing the process from up close because this is what enjoy when I watch other people’s videos myself. Good luck with your build and stay safe:)
Hey Blacksmiths, I would love to see a traditional bright sword from the middle ages, that would be lovely surprise for me... so when you got some time I would love to see you try!!! Thanks now 😂😉👍
hello friend i am not sure what exactly "traditional bright sword from the middle ages" means and google doesn't show me good results, can you give me a bit more info about it , it may be a good idea :)
I looked at the final product and thought: Wow!!! Thiers no way he does this good a job and is not making a living off of this!!! Also when I saw the final product my mind and eyes were drooling saying: Damn!!! Hopefully I can make this one day if I get into knife making 🔪 🗡.
I'm no metallurgist, but a file seems like an excellent choice of steel. The use of the shoelace is probably fairly genuine. If they were in the your situation and the shoelace is what they had, they would have used shoelace.
glue two small pad of natural felt near the tip of the inside of the saya. Off set the them a little they kill the rattle and help hold the blade in. Great job overall 👏 👍
@@RustLegion instead of trying to glue or something some felt in place use a slender piece of wood to stuff a fold of felt or cloth into the tip end of your piece, hopefully this will help.🤞👍
My grandfather bequeathed to me a tanto kaiken forged by Kanetsugu of Mino, Kaneuji Branch, ca. 1368, among other blades. I therefore know a few things about historic Japanese blades.

Mate you did a fantastic job on this. Dont worry about the Ito (handle wrap) That will come with time and lots of practice. The Hamon is also very nice....If you want to. You can get a number of bits of steel and do test Hamon making....try different patterns created with the paste. Anyway...you're doing well. Keep it up and read lots about it and watch as many vids as you can. Rob.
Thank you Rob. I now have a proper ito cord and will soon try again :D . Thats very good idea about the hamon - to try on sacrificial pieces. Thanks again for the nice words , they are well appreciated :)

for a brother who "does not know what one is doing" and humble, quite kool and impressive... bravo: )
thank you , friend :)
Your weapon will KEEEEEEL. 🤣 That's beautiful. For your first attempt at a traditional Japanese blade, that's 100x better than I could do. Great job!
thank you , I should make another one to see how much I can improve it :)
@RustLegion Go short sword next time! Wakizashi. You did a great job on this one, man. All the fittings are beautiful.
I was searching for a tanto video and this was the first one to take my attention
Nice , I hope that it was enjoyable for you to watch ;)
6:08 you’ve invoked the muse-in this case, This Old Tony. 😊
Gotta say, the finished product is magnificent. I love the blade and all those fittings come together perfectly. For someone who claims to not know what he’s doing, you sure know how to get results.
Thank you and yes I took some inspiration from Tony and Torbjörn , great guys who inspired me to start making videos :)
That is a seriously impressive blade, very well done. Loved it.
thanks for all the nice comments friend :)
Man that turned out amazing. All the fittings look fantastic and the blade too. It deserves a menuki too upon shoelace replacement.
Thank you mate , I now replaced the laces with proper ito and ray skin. Maybe I'll make it a menuki too :)
My god this is beautiful. And I really like the Hamon, it looks like a very traditional one, not made by an ork. Beautiful work!
