  • Well, This Katana took me too long to make and this was not easy to make it such perfect. Alot of People asked me to make Katana so i tried my best to make a perfect Katana Sword as i can.
    Overall Sword Length : 35 Inches
    Handle Length : 8 Inches
    Blade Length : 26 Inches
    All the Processes are below of making this beautiful KATANA:
    Forging:
    It took me almost three days to hand forge an Iron Chain piece into a long Metal Strip and this was one of my hardest forging ever. I don't have a power hammer so i did all the forging with hands and turned a chain piece into an almost 33 - 34 inches long steel strip.
    Grinding:
    I started some rough grindings of long strip on my Belt sander and turned the strip into a Katana shaped long steel piece. I also hand sanded the edges with the help of file to remove almost all the roughness of the sword.
    o. I made the Blood Groove with the help of rotary grinder.
    o. The blade bevel was made by my professional angle grinder.
    o. Hand Sanded the blade to remove roughness.
    Hardness:
    There is a professional way to harden a Katana and that is
    Covering the whole sword in a Fire Clay (Insulation) Except the blade bevel.After that we put the sword into the fire and heat it to critical temperature. We use oil to Quench the heated sword in it. Now the Bevel is hard and the remaining sword is annealed. Tempering the blade is the best way to increase the Strength, Hardness and Toughness of the sword.
    Hibaki:
    This piece is traditionally made by forging some copper or brass but we can also make it by casting these metals. And the purpose of hibaki is to hold the Sheath with the handle.
    Handle:
    The Handle contains three parts.
    o. GUARD: I made the guard by using a thick brass sheet, which is roundly turned into a beautiful metal piece that can show a partition between the handle and the remaining sword.
    o. Spacer: This is the little metal piece which fits on tang and controls the fittings of the whole handle so nothing should vibrate in handle.
    o. Wood: A nice piece of wood uses as a handle of the sword and that could be Wrapped by some soft (leather) strips.

      Actually if they saw European swords early they will just copy the design 100%
      I mean nobunaga the man who unite Japan is literally wearing an armor that use European design as it's core, and literally copying Portuguese arquebus and turned it into tanegashima teppo.
      If they saw a rapier they would copy it 100% its longer and lighter than a katana means greater reach, polearm are more efficient than a yari or naginata, you cannot cut anyone with full armor with naginata or yari.

    Just before the Second World War, during the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese military created a type of sword known as the "袁州虎徹" or "Spring Sword" using car springs.
    It was reported to be highly praised for its minimal maintenance requirements and relatively comparable performance to older era swords. According to records, Chinese soldiers also engaged in trench warfare, wielding handmade swords, and clashed with each other in the midst of the conflict.

    Jeez, making and forging a katana made out of a rusted iron chain takes a lot of time and patience. Experimenting on rusted metal to create something new could be challenging for you, but great job. Keep up to good work.

    The fact that he forged that shape out without power tools is damn impressive. You're one skilled bladesmith dude.

      After all that work,why did he drill a hole through the tang at the top and make the wrap look like crap when he could have drilled it at the bottom and added a brass pommel piece and wrapped over it? A katana is held together by all the pieces fitting tightly. Some people make really nice handles by just throwing some glue on the bottom of the handle and hammering a thin brass or steel cap onto the end and it works fine actually using it in a utilitarian way for years.

      He did use power tools, there are people who would’ve banged out that shape instead of cutting off pieces of metal
