This is fantastic! I am Japanese and I would like to note a few things that I found interesting. In this video, a single block of iron is simply beaten and stretched, but originally, the method used is to fold the iron over many times to remove impurities. The iron is then wrapped around the relatively soft core iron and heated by wrapping it with a hard steel core iron. This process makes it possible to achieve both sufficient sharpness and strength!
As far as I know (and of course I'm not an expert in any way) they folded the iron hundred times because Japanese furnaces couldn't reach high temperatures like the European ones, in wich it wasn't necessary.
@@Ringlestorf it wasn't hundreds of times, it was probably 100 layers which is achieved in 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 and so on that was just 7 folds to get to 128
''This process makes it possible to achieve both sufficient sharpness and strength!'' Bro Katanas are the least durable sword out there, these things cant take heavy hits without bending and breaking. Stop the cap
I never intended to watch the entire video but I couldn't stop watching. My karate sensei (RIP) was a Korean war vet and spend years in the Far East including Japan. He owned a composite wakizashi. By composite I don't mean composite material, but the different parts of the sword (blade itself, tsuba, endcap, and handle ) that you so beautifully fabricated were from different eras. But the soul of the sword, the blade, was from the 17th Century. He removed the handle to show me notches in the tang certifying that the sword had been tested presumably on the bodies of dead convicts, if it's true that they tested it that way. It was a stunning work of art and from that day on the wakizashi became my favorite length sword.

What many have failed to notice is your incredible hand precision without mesuring anything. Amazing,truly. I like to make some simple knives as a hobby and i know how hard it can be.sometimes even if i mesure 2 times i don t get lines as good as yours.I hope i can reach your level.
MAN! YOU LITERALLY ARE THE DEFINITION OF PERFECTION! Can't believe you formed this good Wakizashi from a rusted iron chain with not even that expensive type of furnace...Truly amazing and magnificent🙂
THE ONE THING I LOVE IS THE WAY THAT INSTEAD OF A MACHINE TO HEAT THE METAL YOU USE PAPER, WOOD AND COAL. IT'S GOT LIKE A PRIMITIVE STYLE AND YET YOU STILL HAVE MACHINES TO HELP
Fun fact, the curve of a katana sword actually appears naturally when the sword is dunked in water after forging. It’s a master craft that takes decades to learn.
@ioej2782 these types of swords are made differently than european swords like the long sword. The edge is "softer" than the back, so when it is cooled the harder back contracts, forcing the edge to follow and leaving the blade curved.
not me getting ready to go down to my garage and make something like this in an hour knowing i have no experience, no idea what half the stuff he did was, and none of the proper tools or materials.
This is an impressive build, the forging and manufacture of fittings was excellent. Assembly wise it would have been nice to see some ray skin & rice paper being used on the Tsuka wrap, also using a metal pin is not ideal, you should probably swap for bamboo or buffalo horn, metal pins can deform on a large impact and become jammed, that's why bamboo Mekugi are more commonly used. They are super cheap to buy.
I'm so happy that I can finally get Master weapons made, I'm about 300 hours into this game and I've been looking for the Master Blacksmith. I still have a decent amount of the main storyline and some side quests so this is so awesome.
I'm gonna be a weeb here, but there was no folding going on here, I don't think we could call this a wakizashi. Definitely a majestic display piece and looks absolutely fantastic. And yes, I know, modern steel doesn't require the folding process due to being a much higher quality than the iron ore native to the land of the rising weeb stick, but I think that there's a couple of organisations out there that get really pissy about folks describing tools as 'katana' or 'damascus' or similar when none of the traditional methods were involved. I did love the hardening process, far too many hobbyists and layfolk forget you need to temper the blade or you've just got a very soft edge that'll be next to worthless after a few strikes. This was a joy to watch and a beautiful piece of work from start to finish. I wish I could still forge edged display pieces but my country has some very funny laws about that, so I'm stuck making blunts instead.
Great work there, just a thougt, maybe it will help if you treat the wooden part with a transparent laquer just to preserve the good look . For the metal part the one protection i know is Camellia Oil , or other oil rich in unsaturated acids.,depends what's available on your side. Keep up the good work and all best wishes from Romania
i love restoration videos but what sets you apart out of the rest is that you make something new and different from what was originally given. on top of that, making everything from scratch takes mad talent.
u'll understand that piece of shit after applied. For same chaines using soft steels below 0.3% carbon. It's disgusting for blades, it does not keep sharpen
Yeah, i think it would be a big difference but you can also see how sharp the blade is. He couldnt make the blade sharp really because its not legal in the US but in Japan it is certainly legal. You just have to do some paperwork and talk it out I guess. So yeah, basically worth it tho

The entire process seems a bit strange... the hardening and quench was extremely uneven, his hammer is very small and light and it took him ages just to straighten out the single chain piece. Then cut and suddenly he has this very large preform done. Seems partly fake to me
This is fantastic!

The fact that you don't have a 100,000 dollar furnace makes it unique in a way
Why would anyone need such an expensive furnace all you need is some bricks, dirt, wood or coals and leaf blower if you have it
Lol
WHY JUST WHY WOULD YOU NEED A 100k furnace
old school 💪
Pffft, all you need is 8 cobblestone

I was thinking that. I just ignored it because i thought he would’ve measured more outside of the video
he literally has a micrometer.
Ooh! You do this too. Its something i wish to try someday. So, what is this black liquid he adds to the round holes to decorate the "guard (TSUBA)"?
