This is Thrand, great video. I got similar results on Kabuto wile doing my armour piercing test on my Japanese yoroi.
I recomend you the falx sword pls try one

You are so kind
When you realize you're 0.000002 percent Japanese
😒😕
I believe he was abandoned as a baby,left on the door steps of an aging Samurai and his wife, by a pack of wolves. That’s the Cliff Note version...
my culture isnt ur prom dress!!!
@@IronMikeyTand my prom dress isn’t your size...
@@IronMikeyT the dude is actually historician who specialises in Japaneese culture .
When you realize Czechs have so specific accent that you can regognize with 100 % accuracy. Even if you heard only few words.
@James Lisfrank :D :D :D What is racist on true? Czech and Slovak people have really strong and specific accent and if you are from these lands you everytime indentify them :) (I am from Slovakia too)
Those that aren't that race are always the ones that get offended
so fuckin true
@James Lisfrank We are race from now? Niiice... :'D I'm Czech and I can't say, speaking only for myself, I'm proud of my Czech accent but still it's kind of "local symbol" and even I would rather speak with "english English", it's quite cool...
Lol. They're basically Soviet accent to International eyes.
We can't really recognize the Czech accent thing. It's all soviet accent. It is just some are weak accent and some are thick
I always enjoy Adam's content, his positivity and Slavic charm warm my black soul. Jakub has always felt like a natural addition, a knife throwing master visits a sword master is a beautiful background theme to a pair of geek scientists "playing around" with the skills they have trained. I love Japan, consider myself a student of many aspects of its culture, and had an instant liking for Sensei Zeman. He strikes me as a newish master who hopes to mature into a grandmaster, a life I have no doubt he will live beyond his body as so many traditions before. I thank both men who appear in front of the camera, and those who supports them behind it. This collaboration always gets better...
Thank you my friend for nice comment next week video will be awesome too :))
Backyard ninja's, i love them.
me too :D
finally someone talked about the blade position, finallyyyy
Good test and good work
I don't think the soldier wearing the helmet would be seriously injuried, even from the second cut: a good padding would assorb most of the force. Way more dangerous would be the force impressed on the neck.
You could put a scale under the helmet and measure the force of the hit!
Credo tu sia italiano dato il nome quindi userò questa lingua. Condivido pienamente ciò che dici : non credo che i colpi avrebbero causato molto danni, l'energia sarebbe stata assorbita dall'imbottitura e anche dalla colonna vertebrale (i cuscinetti intervertebrali) che, diversamente dal sostegno su cui era poggiato l'elmo, non è rigida; inoltre la posizione (dall'alto verso il basso) con cui sono stati assestati i colpi è la migliore (per produrre danni all'armatura), ma la ritengo poco diffusa nella realtà tranne nel caso di un combattente a cavallo e uno a piedi.
English pls lol
@@geilord7564 No problem.
To Gabriele Alfredo Pini : "I totally agree with what you say: I don't think the sword-strokeswould have caused much damage, the energy would have been absorbed by the padding and also by the spine (the intervertebral pads) which, unlike the support on which the helmet was resting, isn't rigid; moreover the position (from top to bottom) with which the strokes were dealt is the best (to produce damage to the armor), but I think it is not widespread in reality except in the case of a fighter on horseback and one on foot."
Sorry if there are some mistakes.
@@roccoautelitano7330 thanks
Let something about 60kg ( 130 pounds) fall on your head.. it wouldnt even have to be sharp to kill you!
I like how jakub talks , very unique, and when adam talks very positive vibes i love it! In a way these two in this video warms my 💓
That last cut on the helmet was devastating! so glad no one was hurt during the silk cutting stunt haha but y'all should try opening the silk cloth all the way and try to drop it on the blade then just like in the scene. I enjoyed this video alot glad I got to watch it live!
it definitely still wouldnt
have cut
Letting the silk rest on the blade and then going into a swing could work.
Even the first swing pierced through as you see some light shining in (6:54) of video. Amazing stuff Adam
Yeah we totally noticed after the filming !!! Pretty crazy, thank you Nicholas :)) Get Ready for Ep.2 on Saturday :))
Adam Celadin definitely looking forward to it! :)
The silk scarf test is from an old legend about how sharp swords could be. The legend I recall hearing was that it was an exchange between a European knight and a Saracen. the European knight in order to prove how sharp his sword was dropped a silk kerchief over the blade and it fell neatly in two. Not to be outdone the Saracen placed his Shamshir in a stream with the blade facing up stream and had someone place a tuft of cotton (some re-tellings say is was a tuft of lint, others say fur) in the stream and is it floated downstream it was cut in two by the edge of the Saracen's Shamshir. Whether the event ever actually took place has been a long standing debate in historical circles for a very long time, but it is a good story and many people have, over the years tried to replicate those feats.
Actualy the knight cut the mace handle with sword, and saracen cut the silk scarf in mid air.
Great introduction and explanation of the helmet's properties! It's true that only low-quality helmets of lowly footsoldiers or ashigaru could be cut in this way. Otherwise, japanese warriors abode by the same principles as everybody else: Aim for the gaps in the (high-quality) armor!
Would love to see this test at head level height. Itd be hard finding out how to prop it up, but this test was the equivalent to attacking a samurai midget 🤣
Samuri were between the height of 4"11 and 5"5
@@supablackman18 okay then the guy cutting would need to stand at the same height of other samurai lmao
Thats also an average. Which doesn't represent outliers and with a whole country there are bound to be people that break 5'5" easily.
It needs to be tested against the equivalent of a taller opponent, in fast movement, with a weapon poised for code 187. It would of course have to be done on the run, with no time to charge up and aim as if cutting wood. The helmet should also be wet/slippery, in case it was raining or something.
Imagine someone down on their knees. This could finish them.
Samurai were the size of children so it's a good approximation
Great video Adam. Very well done 🤘🏻⚔️
Very good technique! As someone who is part-Japanese, I can say you NAILED the Jigen-ryuu style that my family practiced in Satsuma! ONE STROKE ONE KILL! :D You’re awesome sensei! :)
That's actually insane, I was not expecting that! Amazing video mate, I'm really looking forward to the next one!
Thank you Hamish :)
Very interesting my friend's.
we never do test like this..
Because Japanese sword very expensive in here's,, 😀😀😀
Wow! I was surprised how much power in the chop he has! WOW he CUT THROUGH A HELMET GUYS.
Mmmh i dunno, it looks like leather
BRUUUTAL!!!!
This series that you are making now is Epic!!
Already wathced this episode 3 times haha💖
Thank you so much Lonkero ,)) Watch like million times and we have viral :D :D
Good test,I'd probably wear padding under my kabuto,also a chainmail,hood,but like someone ssid,the shear force on an opponents neck would be horrendous an painful.
While you were sleeping with stacies i study the blades....
That's an interesting experiment!
Even among Japanese, there are not many people who try to play Kabuto-wari.
With his skills, it's much easier to disable them at the neck and armor joints, isn't it?
I think you're correct the fact he did that to the strongest part of the helmet
If he went for neck or joint i also think it would of been better
The weeboo is strong here! Anyway the steel armor is pretty cool!!
How can you call him weeboo? Jakub Zeman is very well admired also in Japan..
I really hate when you westerners call someone with genuine interest in our culture a weeboo. You have no sense of respect
Kámo, velice povedené video, jen tak dál
That orthodox monk samurai guy, looks badass
If you can be humble about the reality of materials, this is actually a very interesting (and educational) video. Of course, it is not like a movie, but all weapons are not impressive if you compare them to movies.
That is a battlefield technique in warring states period called Helm Splitter. (Don't ask me the proper name)
The point is actually not to split the helmet despite the name. But to deliver enough shock to shatter the skull.
It required very strong arm. And not uncommon to break one after you execute it.
But it doesn't matter since the enemy will be dead anyway.
Just pray that the sword won't break first.
Note: it is more economical to fight armored opponents using wooden sticks.
FYI the actual silk cutting test involves having the blade angled toward the ground, placing the silk cloth at the top and letting the silk run down the blade.
if your blade is sharpened to 20,000 grit it should slice the silk.
I wonder two things (hoping someone who knows more than me could give any answer):
1)why when he cuts does he bring the sword all the way back, instead of leaving it parallel with the ground?
I mean, It's taught (when charging a cut) not to bring the sword under the parallel line, right?
2)Why he is using katana like an axe? I mean, isn't he supposed to "cut" with the sword (sliding the blade over the target) instead of smashing it all the way down?
So this would work as long as the soldier just stood there and let you hit him right on the top of the head without trying to move out of the way like any normal human being would. Otherwise the helmet would deflect the blow just like it’s designed to
deflect the blow but u still getting knocked the fuck out
If someone manages to land a hit then the helmet guy would get a concussion and the helmet also won't bounce away like in this video and if that strike manages to cut in then the skull would absorb the impact and if the cut is deeper then the sword could also get stuck or lodged in the skull. If someone then keeps applying force on the sword then the helmet guy is fucked and he's gonna get cut in half
Jakub comes from the Czech Republic. I also.😀I only "met" him yesterday.
The first part of your series.. niiiiice :)
They used silk as armour and arrowcatcher... So no wonder XD
Great cut, to not glance of, you have to hit the hwlmet exactly in a right angle to bring enough force to it. Impressive hit :)
Jakub is such a nice and humble guy. I had the pleasure to meet him twice at seminars. See you in October in Prague.
Greetings your MLVK
Thank you for nice comment my friend :)
I was looking for the comment regarding silk being used as armour
Silk shirts is now an armour upgrade technology in age of empires 2 DE
YESSS VERY GOOD VIDEO ADAM! KEEP IT UP
Very funny and fun video! Can't wait for more
5:04
Did you see that?
Did you see how the sword caught on the fabric?
That's why soldiers were thick padding and fabric, not just because they couldn't afford armour, but because of the fact that fabric can be armour itself.
If the swords edge alignment is off, it can snag and glance off of the fabric without cutting through it, or even get caught in it.
I guess that's the reason for cape wearing medieval warriors too
@@Edward0919 you're probably thinking of cloaks. Capes are different, They don't usually close in the front, reach below the waist, are usually round pieces of fabric that are worn similarly to a shawl and, most importantly are worn over cloaks. Capes are meant to add warmth and weather proofing ( keep out the wind and rain) in this, it is similar to a cloak. It has been used as a way to display rank in the military, social status in society, and hierarchical status in nobility. However, it's base function has changed little. (Well, while it was still in use. Now-a-days, people think of superheroes when they here cape, which isn't very accurate)
As previously stated, cloaks were used as a wind block, warmth and protection against the rain. Not only that, they were used for a blanket during particularly cold nights during travels, or a small tent for shelter. When they didn't need to use it as a piece of clothing, it could be used as a bag or could have the warrior's (or common person's) belongings rolled up into it, tied, and secured to a horse or on their person as a backpack. There are many, MANY other uses for cloaks but I'm too lazy to list them all.
Edit: oh, but fighting in a cloak is difficult, annoying, and impractical. The cloak gets in the way 9 out of 10 times and makes swinging a sword a pain, forget about any kind of agility. You basically have a sail on you.
I mean, you could _potentially_ wrap it around your off hand arm if you need to but I'm not too sure that's any more helpful... in fact I'm pretty sure that's actually unhelpful.
@@Kurokubi Nice read thanks.
Also I read some this somewhere that they used silk in Asia(not sure what age) as protection against arrows and they look like porcupines after battle
Nice video, thx for the test and knowledge, Jakub!
That silk scarf was very nice but even cooler after being cut like that. Excellent video.
Powerful!! ..really smoothly silky dead !! Aahhh ! 😅😅 Nice presented! 😎😎
Thank you Aletta ,)
Cool vid. The Helmet as basic in design as it is, protected from a fatal cut. The Ashigaru (Soldier) would survive the helmet nick, but his neck would be cranked in ways that would cause plenty of harm.
Very Enjoyable 👍
Thank you Carvis :)
Thats very fun to watch! thanks for sharing, its impressive that the blade is still intact after hitting straight on to another steel helmet!
Wow! Amazingly accurate hit!
Adam you are the big boss
He is definitely a master! Great video brother as always
Thank you Brandon ,)))
This is going to be so awesome! Can't wait.
Damn Right JS ,))
You guys are the perfect duo.. love the content

1 hour left Jason :))
Love this channel!!!
Where are you guys located? I've been wanting to learn Tamashegiri for so long, but the art isn't Legal in some countries :/
By the way, I recall another channel (I think it was Zombie go boom) Where they sell artificially made heads, made from a type of ballistic gel that replicates the thickness and density of a human skull. Might be cool to test the kabuto cut with one of these heads, so you can see just how far the cut goes into the skull :)

Awesome first episode of Lords of the Blades !!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice one , look forward to next episode congratulations
Thank you Luis :)
This is Thrand, great video enjoying it brother.
Thank you very much brother !!! I taugh you guys might like this video :)) Hope everything is good on your side my friend! Cheers from Czech
I have a question: How thick these helmets was? Could you cut through it with, for example, a longsword or an axe?
And, if I understand well, was the sword, which the test was done with, blunt? 1:53 If the "edge" was that wide, of course the sword isn't damaged if the helmet is made of iron or mild steel while the blade is made of hardened steel. Even a cheap medium carbon steel, if it's hardened, i don't expect it to be damaged if the sword has no real edge.
The thicker edge is at a wide degree of angle. So this sword is more for chopping with great force. It will be abit shrap to the touch. But it's true edge isn't razor shrap until you swing it. The steel has alot goings on here it is why the hardest steel always wins when it comes to cut each other. The blade he banished was just for this test on armor and other harder targets. A waskbsi is a much sharper blade and is famously the blade that cut silk.
Jest destrukcja i można się czegoś nauczyć. Zajebiście:-D
Bruh his student had so much trust that he wasn’t bout to be a training accident on film. Buddy was super close to ole Samurai Sam
I am kinda a blade addict so thank you Adam and Sensei Jakup!!!
Thank you Stephen :)
I was not expecting it to cut through, thats impressive as hell
Was expecting first episode to bring alittle more heat, but still somewhat entertaining. What a Blow!
Just warm up wait for others .))
Why does the guy with the katana remind me of borat when he talks
He is nothing like Borat. Jakob is an awesome chap with perfect control. He looks magnificent.
@@monumentstosuffering2995 you’re about 7 months late brother. 😂 I even forgot about this video
Love it love it good demos.. the bodyguard man I remember that scene
Thank you Carlos
i think i am a master in sharpen blades and i have a very sharp katana..i don't believe..that it's possible to cut such a piece of silk cloth in the air..but i believe to cut a piece hanging from a stick is possible and i believe i can do it..i might try it soon and put it on a video..great tests..thank you for showing..greetings..uddo
What a beautiful sword!
I am going tell my kids that he's a japanese samurai and he fought many fierce battles on a camel's back.
😜
Vážně dobrý video, to se ti povedlo 👍
Helmet cutting is possible. I saw a Sword Master from Japan perform at the National martial arts competition at Crystal Palace. He had studied the art of helmet cutting all his life, and he did manage to cleave the top of a traditional helmet as pictured
Not completely in half but it cut through the metal right across the top and would have instantly killed anyone wearing it. I don't believe it was faked, I really think he could do it. He even cracked an American Football helmet,that as previously demonstrated couldn't be harmed by a claw hammer!
But still, the blade probably isn't penetrating that deep. However, if the inside of the helmet indents enough to touch your skull, it would be a serious concussion. The blade wouldn't actually need to touch you as the blunt force trauma alone would knock you out, or worse.
Nice job guys!
Glad you enjoyed it
Adam this video is very cool.😊☺
I wasn't expecting the sword to deal any more damage than a little dent. And I also expected some minor edge damage.
What kind of steel the helmet is made of?
Wow.. I never thought I would see someone impersonating Ali G and Borat at the same time!
Thank you so much for making this cool test! I have been wondering if it is possible to cut through a helmet with a katana. Awesome video!
PS: No way that other helmet weighed 7 kg. A heavy European helmet was maybe 4, you're saying that open faced one is almost double.
Great work Adam!
thank you :)
Dobrý večer. Chtěl bych se zeptat k čemu takovéto testování slouží.
Awesome video! Where can I get one of those Kabuto?
Would there be any padding beneath the helmet?
Not just only sword..you need right technique 😄
love what you did here. i only have a few critic points. if you dont mind ofcourse.
1. the helmet was placed too low, its should be on head level. like it would be in a fight. when you place it that low its much easyer to put in a lot of force.
2. the helmet was placed on a solid piece of wood. a person wearing a helmet isnt as solid as a piece of wood wearing it. a person would give in a little when you hit him. absorbing a lot of the force.
i think you wouldnt have been able to cut the helmet if you changed these 2 things.
This is an awesome video maybe you guys can go over throwing a wakasashi or a katana . i know it can be done but maybe you guys can test it and discuss it
We should do full episode about it for sure :) Musashi Tanto Throw! I was just thinking about it today
Your videos are awesome man your the reason i just started learning to throw knives
a few things to note:
-silk is hard to cut. multi-layer silk armor was used by various asian cultures throughout different time periods.
-their sensei guy (im sure hes great) didnt cut the tatami well. a good cut will leave the bottom half and stand in place with little movement, this suggests that the alignment of the edge of his blade was not in alignment with the direction of his cut.
-the helmet was not set up correctly. there would have been a leather strapped harness to keep the helmet off of the head (or at least padding of some sort). additionally, a human head wearing the helmet would not have stayed in place like that helmet does on the wooden block, a real human target would move and sway with the blow, causing the cut to glance off the side, or at the least not receive near as much damage, as the force of the blow would be decreased by the movement of the target. im not saying it would be impossible to cut, but waaaaay less likely than what this video tries to demonstrate.
Give me that samurai kabuto steel helmet. You can obviously afford it.
The rusty helmets are just hilarious for the proper test. And the Guy Who is acting like a rapper. Haha
Dobrá práce klucí
That's nice. But a greatsword, longsword, han jian, dadao, truong dao, and ram dao can do the same.
For longswords and Han jians probably depends on the blade type. Something like the svante probably comes closest, Han jians would also need to sport thicker later era blades as opposed to thin long ones.
I think the shape of the wood block with its corners under it help cutting the first helmet?
"It's made from army helmet.." ok let's stop right there for a second....
it sounded weird, but you can see on the inside that it's made from some kind of modern steel army helmet.
75% army stones
Yup it means that it is fuckass harder to get through than a traditional Kabuto
@@davidlindholm7908 You don't actually know much about modern army helmets or kabuto, do you?
@@davidlindholm7908 Not really, modern steel helmet for protects wearer from fragments not from melee strike like the medieval helmet.
very interesting, i didnt expect that the sword can cut throught the helmet
Cool video bud
"Cutting of 'corpse' of 'criminals'..."
Amazing. Wery Amazing. A outtake? 😕😕😕😕😕😕
Why all the dislikes there was nothing wrong as far as I know with the video. Not clickbait or anything. Very nice results too.
Wow!! The Helmet is strong. But that sword extreme. Great video. Cheers from Puerto Rico
Thank you brother, cheers from Czech
LIT. Watchout History Channel 😂
Who made the blade and when please? Nice work guys
Premier in 22 hours. I am not gonna wait here all that time 😂
Hahah you dont have to...see you in 22 hours Though :D
Adam Celadin I have 22 hours to tell my friends to watch to!
@@jordy2299 God Speed my friend
What metal does the sword? Also who made it?
Love from India
I'm no expert in swordmanship, but shouldn't he dragged the katana while slashing the helmet ? All I see is he chopped the helmet, which a katana isn't made for.
Nice vid let’s see u through the swords now 😂
To see the real deal check out the video of kabutowari performed by Kawabata Terutaka using a sword made by Yoshihara Yoshindo.
I first saw the entire video at a London Token Kai,standing next to me was a very slight Japanese gentleman who reached roughly my shoulder in height,I realised it was actually the man himself,I smiled,bowed,he smiled in return,no words necessary,he understood from my reactions how I felt about his performance with that blade and he appeared to be pleased.
Watch it for the technique and focus.
