I bet you were the guy who sold your $3 knife to Jun
Severin Sternum should've let Jun do this instead of him😒
Severin Sternum LOL!!!
Severin Sternum he shoulda handed the katana over to Jun too.
HAHAHABA
LMAO
Anyone else notice that they sanded away the engraved characters on the sheath..........
mhm it really annoyed me smh
Ikr!! 😡😡😡
Yeah, that really bothered me!!
Yeh it made me cringe so much
IKR, WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT?!?! >:(

Weeb.
Exaplaint why then mrImTheBestRestoratorInTheUniverse
Why
Alexander Simanovsky
How come? I don't know about these things...
Sad to see the characters on the sheath to be sanded. This was a bit painful to watch as well.
yep felt same way
He has no clue what he is doing and cant even name tools properly....
originalusername Likely had the time, location and maker with the characters. Not always all of that but normally at least a maker's Mark or the owner names.
Great Meme Warrior He knows...
Im sad too see a beautiful sword be ruined cause it probably, no for sure had the value "sliced" in half. 😖👎
Juns kitchen anyone
Me
No
Isabella Mah he didn’t start this trend.
Sackmatters nobody said he did.
Yuppp
i like how they tried to make the reveal extra dramatic, where you could also clearly see the scratches and bumps on the sword

Who TF is Kobe Bryant. PFFFFTTTT.
@@kanifuker721 bruh
I have to go watch juns kitchen so I can unsee this mess.
Yuyuka Did. Worked wonders on my soul.
I can’t believe that’s actually what I was about to do
Bitch and moan some more please
mood
hmm I smell hypocrisy
Am I the only one who saw and felt devastated to notice what looked like some carving on the sheath and watch him sand it into oblivion and just distroy it..? Cause I swear I saw on the sheath sanding close-up some form of carved symbols or something before he distroyed it
Nhagiz Shakaai the carving at 2:40?
dave nguyen
Yes, the carving there
Nhagiz Shakaai i saw a carving too
Its a mall katana
Nhagiz Shakaai nah bud I'm pretty sure ur comment is almost exactly like 95% of the others so u really should be the only one
I was okay with the vinegar soak, and nodding like "okay, that seems fair--"
And then that smash cut to the power sander and I burst out laughing, because that was like a comedy take, like a scene straight out of an old 'Airplane' movie, where someone maybe says they're going to the dermatologist and then we cut to a scene like that.
Right a need to know how to clean my katana the person before me clean it in a don’t even know WD 40 n it’s so rusty n a want to keep it clean n up to date
Any recommendations
Same even i wanna know abt it
There is a big difference between making a sword shiny and having an expert polisher bring out all the great features of a Japanese sword ( hamon, hada etc ). Of course we don't know if the blade was hand forged in the traditional method or not. You can make about any rusted blade shiny if that is all you want.
I'm 100% certain it was a cheap repro, I recognized exactly what blade it was. I also collect real Japanese sword, been so for over 2 decades. This is a very common one you can order from places like Budk, it's literally junk.
The disrespect to this sword is astounding.
thefuumanchuu the sword has no feelings

UnderWorldDemoNS the point of a restoration isn't to just to sand off rust, it's about preserving an object's meaning by returning it to its former glory but keeping it's significance.
I think you are confusing restoration with renovation
yes, i think japanese sword restoration is more entertaining to watch, even they replace the old sheath with same originaly lacquered wood.
Taz D. Francis
You didn't fucking care?
He sanded off the engravings!
3:35 All this done for playing fruit ninja?
What would you do, kill people, i would cut some stuff to test then put it as decoration and in my room, also a backup if robbery happens
@@arima9642 ur room would smell like shit
@@dailymemies the robber wouldn’t break in because he noticed that the cheap dull blade will hurt more
I think they lowered the graphics to prevent more people from noticing the fact that he sanded away the writing... and it worked
“How to decrease the value of an antique sword”
yeh cos anyone would rather buy a rusty old sword?
Cordelia Mcbride you would be surprised how many people buy them
Cordelia Mcbride that isn't the point but you do you
its old thats what gives it its value smart ass
Was about 5k. Now 400-500
Did anyone else cringe when the orbital sander came out? And he never touched the tang (nakago) which will be rusted too. I am pretty sure that this is an inexpensive reproduction because a real katana takes a month or more to sharpen/polish and this "restoration" will destroy any collector value. Lastly, I don't expect expert sharpening technique and starting at 3000 and ending with 8000 is not horrible. Jeweller's rouge is not bad with power buffing, but it does not do a decent job on hardened steel (unlike Chromium oxide). As a quick and dirty method for making a wall hanger presentable, this is OK. But as "restoration", not in the same ball park. The scratches on the cutting edge make me want to rip the thing out of his hands.
PS I taught myself to sharpen my own knives/tools and I would never take on a real Katana restoration.
Actually the tang is never supposed to be polished
Because that's how they can carbon date it.
Yes, but they can at least detach the handle and wipe the tang with oil. The scabbard and handle must have soaked a lot of moisture, what with being buried underground like that.
true
Go away
No one likes that guy that takes over the class room to say some smart ass shit then end his speech of smart Assness with a note of personal experience you are on track to being deemed the cringeiest of humans
This could’ve been done by professionals. That sheath being sanded down was hard to watch.
The professionals would've charged more than the $40 this sword costs online.
The sound of my jaw dropping when he started sanding could be heard around the globe.
I heard it lol
They ruined it and then played fruit slice.
Reza Khan FRUIT NINJA!!!!!
Thank you I was about to respond with fruit ninja.
"Fruit slice" lol
+Reza Khan how did they ruin it?
57HarleyDavidson did you see all those scratch marks in the blade after the restoration was done? I wouldn't say it is ruined, but it US an incomplete restoration.
This is the UPSIDE DOWN of Jun's video.
da96103 the Japanese guy with the 6 yen knife?
Yep from Jun's kitchen.
Yeah that satisfies this just made me cringe
You can restore a machete this way, not a katana.
Please man...
No ni machetes ni nada
Fucking neckbeard this is like a 50$ katana and a katana is like nay other sword it's sharp steel that cuts
Well then how would you restore a katana Marco?
@@bigmac6710no powertools, you may mess with the heat treatment.
@@marcoclementi1247 I'm really late but as stated by other comments the Katana was a low end one, so regardless it didn't matter. I doubt it was made with traditional methods.
lmfao, I bought that SAME sword about 10 years ago myself. It was $20, obviously a piece of shit. I still have it. Therefore I do not care about the way he "restored" this lol.
Just because you bought one with the same style doesn't mean it's the same sword. This is a very expensive sword.
Cameron O. What makes you think it’s expensive?
@@CamTheKid No it's not, it's at most $40
thats so weird i got a sword from a garage sale that looks alot nicer more of a traditional look and the guy said he got it 10 years ago to in san Antonio tx im trying to find the maker it had the same symbol witch means knife in madarine lol
He scratched it up. They should have watched Jun's Kitchen to learn how to clean a knife
Jennifer A EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKNGGG
I KNOW
WE ALL HAVE THE EXACT SAME THOUGHT PROCESS
OMG YES JUN
Jun is vvv cool
You killed a dying sword.
Shaun Ferguson 😢
Shaun Ferguson Lol
Shaun Ferguson how?,p
No body in their right mind would take an orbital sander to a Japanese sword. A simple RUclips search on Japanese sword polishing will show you the correct way to do it. But basic rule of thumb is, if you haven't trained as a polisher DON'T try and polish a sword esp if you don't know the provenance of the sword because you could be ruining an important sword.
Shaun Ferguson can you be a little but more specific? I am kinda confused.
I love how everyone’s now a pro on blade restoration
Compared to these morons? We all are. Also, 360p in 2017 for good measure.
I mean it doesnt take a genius to see that he visibly scratched away the beautiful engravings like an idiot but yeah you do you
I mean I may be wrong but you don’t scratch away engravings when restoring a anything really
my 15 dollar kitchen knife is better maintained and sharper
This sword's a fake, its on ebay for like $20
Smh I finally know why people are so mad over this video.
They forgot the pommel.
2:39 WHY WOULD YOU RUIN IT LIKE THAT THE CHARACTERS FOR PETES SAKE

UGH

Surpeme Kai but still
Viktor Petkov maybe he's going to engrave new letters.
The proud moment when everyone mentioning Jun's Kitchen while I've known Jun from Rachel and Jun
AdzBala most probably know Rachel and jun , we are just mentioning the channel junskitchen cuz that's the channel he uploaded the knife restoration video to
Ikr
and is there something to be proud of about that?
AdzBala same!!
YESSS
I would never, ever, under any circumstance trust Buzzfeed with a weapon.
well they are secretly are gathering weapons of mass destruction to attack yugoslavia
they hate slavs
Chill guys, this sword is just a wallhanger. Look at that thin, little habaki.
@MagicMachineGun That's a very good point. I hope people don't ruin antiques, or even properly made modern swords for that matter.
The history of that thing is gone now, after being sanded
What history
Oh no, a mass produced sword from the late 90s to early 2000s had its history erased.
You can find the same shit on Amazon, calm down.
Tanner Rangel calm down you weeb trash
What history, it's modern Chinese junk.
Instead of this just hand it to jun, from junskitchen, he would do it much better
He would put a good edge on it too.
2Boss4You YEAH
EXACTLY HE EVEN CUT MARIJUA-I mean the Japanese leaf *Cough Cough Cough*
Kids like you are either trolls or embarrassingly immature fanboys: Jun is using wetstones and is accustomed to japanese blade-geometry. This guy used power tools and had no reason to pay attention to the blade architecture on a cheap sword. Instead of talking crap realise that the shinogi isnt always distinct and the surface imperfections you see are actually what the rust did to the metal - pitted rust cant be removed without thinning the blade significantly and it even gives the blade character considering what it is.
Yeah i agree GO JUN!!!
Y’all acting as if he just committed a crime. B*tch that is factory made katana. Prob cost about $30 at max.
Thank you! God damn, people be making it seem like they ruined a legendary sword, but it's actually most likely an old WWII blade. Japan always gave their soldiers backup weapons in the form of swords and they were mass produced for them all. They were very inexpensive to make, and at the very most were around 80-100 dollars each. So chill with the hate.
@@MTLMJN Plenty of Japanese families donated their ancestral blades to be converted into shin guntō (新軍刀 for the war effort. Not saying this sword is some ancient relic, but they are out there.
Also, he did nothing to clean the interior of the shirasaya. So that blade is going to immediately rust no matter how he polished it!
The Danish oil part was my favourite because it was actually satisfying
I died a little inside when he sanded the sheath
URGENT FURY it physically hurts to watch
They wouldn’t need the “sword” anyway what would they need it for cutting there fruit
@@turtlelegsoup775 you can't tell that the sword was cheap? He got it out of a time capsule in his backyard it's not worthful you can get the same sword at my mall with the same engravings for around $50 it's not that expensive
Whats the problem if that?
@@ultra2635 The engravings (IN A KATANA) tell either the maker/shop that made it (you're basically not citing your sources) OR an inscription to the person, ordered by that person. This means he either didn't know or, more likely, DIDN'T CARE.
“It’s still salvageable”
I think you mean that it’s still destroyable
I like watching this video every time it pops up on my feed and I like hearing the sound it makes when the sheath is taken off
The amount of people who are making Juns kitchen references is not as many as I’d prefer, but it is appreciated

His knowledge of metal is very bad, instead of repairing, but instead damaging his art.
I like how he plays Fruit Ninja with this sword.
The magic went the moment the orbital came out.
Jun could've done this in half the time and kept the engravings.
Please, if you ever do this again, call Rachel and Jun to do it.
I spend a solid ten minutes cringing.
Erika Karisawa wrong jun could’ve done it 100x better in 10x the time.
Erika Karisawa this guy probably spent like 2 hours on this project because he sanded with those power tools instead of taking the time and effort to do it right.
He absolutely cannot do it in half the time. Power tools save huge amounts of time.
Doing this better means doing more by hand, or at least slowed down & finer power tools at first.
Doing all that by hand without cutting yourself is very slow going.
Erika Karisawa I was thinking the exact same thing
Erika Karisawa i defo agre he could make a knife that couldnt go through bread go through a fingre in like 2 hours
Jun could do this way better. AND HE HAS CATS.

You did not....
You did about everything wrong that you could !
Kaiser Soze I bet they get that from eBay...
Cuz...like hell an american man could find an authentic Japanese sword from the Edo era or Heian period or whatsoever buried in his backyard :v
Japanese didnt go to America at those days before WW ya kno
Kaiser Soze How do you know?
Ådøru Umaru it's obviously a replica sword
The sword is meant for cutting tuna.. just saying
yep
So sad, you ruin that sword.
The heat from machined sanding will damage the heat treatment on the edge. I won't expect the hamon will appear after that kind of restoration. I hope that sword doesn't have any historical value, if it is a real antique sword, it will be a great loss
The heat treathment won't get affected by the sanding. Only if you can see colour changes like from the standard grey colour to blue then you are changing the molecular construction of the steel and will make it vounrable ( don't know the correct spelling sorry) to breaking. What really grind my gears is that he sanded the word off completely. That will have a big effect on the value.
Surya N. I'm sorry,but is that a JoJo Reference?
GODKING ÉOMER might be the heat treatment won't be effected by sanding. But still, ( if that was a real shiken) restoration with that method, i think its pretty reckless.
Theresia Siahaan i don't even know what are you talking about. If you know something about shiken or katana restoration just let it out. I'll be more than happy to learn.
Anacleto , i never thought it was anime😅. But in Japanese sword, hamon is almost similar to temper line that appear on the blade after heat treatment

It was rusted, then you ruined it. Chips, dents and deep scars, with a dull finish. Lets not even mention the sheath "carpentry."
pyroromancer i only use machines if the edge is majorly screwed or its covered in rust or a bad coating , most of the marks looked to be pre-existing

Torey Branson Doesnt take an expert to realize how much he fucked up the blade
Should be titled “how not to restore a sword”
Logan Urrunaga Restore: bring back to previous state.
Exactly. Keyword: previous state. "Previous state" does not mean "sand off markings and make it a characterless chunk of steel".
Mah_Buddy_Keith Ok sure sanding off the sword markings was stupid but it's not a chunk of steel he sharpened it.
But it's also not a sword.
It's a knife.
It lacks a guard.
Poodleinacan IT'S A JAPANESE SWORD PEOPLE PLEAAASEEE
I cant believe how good of a asmr this is
You managed to ruin both the blade and the saya. Still 10m views. Good job, leave this stuff to professionals.
Pwn Sensei how did he ruin the blade and the saya?
Why comment if you are going to say bad things. I have to admit you are supposed to take everything off the blade first and he ruined the markings as well as using that steel wool to scratch the blade but do not expect evverything to be done perfectly
MainnDyress 2k55Koro thanks! I saw the characters on the saya, your also right, it’s scratched real badly

Sword -Restoration- Destruction
ParaTrooper996 how is it? It was fucked before and now it’s not.
Ste Bam because he used power tools and made more knicks in it. If he wanted to really restore it, he should’ve taken it to an actual Smith you empty headed moron.
All the names and such were sanded off which takes away all the value in the first place also he should of just used multiple whetstones it would of done the trick. A good video to watch would be JunsKitchen's knife resotoration.
Shut up you pair of spastics. The thing was worthless anyway.
Ste Bam it wasn't worthless lol now it is
Leave it to Buzzfeed to not take any sort of care and proper treatment of the blade and sheath while "restoring" this blade and sheath. They did not even try to remove the blade from the handle to assess the damage to the tang or clear out the hilt and spacers. Rather than soaking the sheath in a warm bath and gently sanding the excess damage and dirt off they completely destroyed the finish and even removed engraved lettering at 2:38 with brute sanding. The improper sharpening also ruined more of the blade as well, leaving it with more unsightly scratches and ragged edge as they sharpened it both with the technique and angle of a common kitchen knife at best and the buffing wheels and the way they used them so poorly were the worst calls to refinish the piece.
Good to see that your work on 'restoring' this piece approached with as much research as all your other articles and was done with about as much tact and care.
this channel isnt owned by Buzzfeed at all though, its just some asian guy and his crew ripping off the name for subs
Slurm its highly addictive if you go to Buzzfeed's main channel BuzzFeedVideo and click on channels, you'll see that this channel is listed on there.
Hurricane's channel And? They can't use the tequniques which were used in this video and call it a "restoration". It simply just doesn't work.
It was worth more in the rusted stated before they completed massacred it. Poor sword 😢
TheNEOONE1 Honestly, of its just some random forges sword, with no noteworthy name attached to it, it might be worth ever so slightly more. But they'd have to take off the grip and look up the makers mark to truly know. Chances are they did literally nothing to the value of the sword. But it is a disgrace to call this a restoration.
3:20 most beautiful sound

"Restoring"
Jam Destroying
Jam có
The rust ate a lot of metal, unless you want the thing to be full of craters, the ONLY thing you can properly do is sand it down. Hand sanding and power sanding accomplishes the same result. The only other option would be to wel the craters, which WOULD destroy any heat treat on the blade and fill it with soft low-carbon welding metal.
Spicket Spaghet uh
@@spicketspaghet7773 yeah agreed lots of pitting. Still would have done it all by hand. The carbon content would remain high and the differential harden would show up with a good etch. You can’t show the hamon with pitting because it will eat your metal. The pitting was a no go! He didn’t even show us differential hardening line which is kind of upsetting

New video title "how to ruin a perfectly good sword and rip off juns kitchen"
NotTotallyHopeless Jun didn't do it first bud. blade restoration has been around forever
I mean the blade isn't "good" which is why they are restoring it but whatever
lmao u stupid man jun obviously wasnt the first person to ever restore something jesus u dumb
Ripped of juns kitchen, what a joke
Hate to break it to you but there are other people than that guy who also restore rusty blades.
That really fast scrubbing sound is the best
finally buzzfeed does something productive with their channel
junskitchen??
charly j I'm guessing buzzfeed tried to do something similar but (in my opinion) failed
charly j in case you're asking what Junskitchen is: its a RUclips channel where a Japanese man (Jun) cooks with his cats. he uploaded a video restoring a rusted old knife, and a lot of people watched it and loved it
Emiliana Camacho he was making a joke because they’re both asian and restoring a blade
this dude sucks compared to jun
charly j he didn’t start this trend.
95% of the comments are about how junskitchen can do better and I’m so Glad that people know that the guy in this video is doing it all wrong😂😂
Very nice job !
This video just shows plan disrespect and ignorance to the original history of that sword, how dare you buzzfeed? Do your damn research before fucking up something so ancient!
it looked like a cheap reproduction but still respect the blade at all times
Like wtf they used a sander??? Plus removed the engraving? The engraving gives the sword characteristics wtf are they doing

I hope he did not get a heart attack.
Nanashima Senpai ahhahah i would love to see his reaction... I mean like he destroyed it by sanding it...
Can he tell if this was a valuable sword or a worthless one (before the so-called 'restoration')
by the looks of it, its a Shirasaya katana. its a decorative replica, basically a wall decoration.
i just exaggerated it, he actually laughed his ass off.

BuzzFeed: Lemme sand off the engraving on a sword
Is it just me or am I lying in bed at night before I go to bed watching this
He done fucked it up.
No. The metel itself was fucked up. He had to use power tools to get out the deeper rust. This made the actual sword smaller though.
how? it was buried for 10 years. I remember seeing those for sell. they were not high dollar to begin with. you're confusing this with an antique.
Addertje onder het gras it's probably worth 500 to 800 dollars lol
you're so far off it's not even funny. those swords were only around 60 to 80 dollars new 10 years ago. How is it everyone keeps confusing this with an antique. You can still buy them for around 45 bucks today. Seriously, why do you all assume this is an antique. It's been in his backyard for 10 years. That's 2007. He most likely did this on purpose himself with the intent of making this video.
The sanding was too much. There was something written on the sword.. thats gone now
Looks like he was just f$&king around with sandpaper and a hunk of rusty metal
Honestly, that blade still looked like if it hits something it’ll snap on the first strike
Jeez, what an ASMR undercover video

たぶん、これはお土産などでつくられる模造品の刀です。
日本の職人が打った本物の日本刀とは違う。 プレス機で型抜きされて作られたような均質な鉄の色をしています。
日本刀は鉄と鋼の合金を手作りする伝統技法ですから、同じ鉄でも黒々と深い色をしています。
鉄の色が違う(鋼ですら無い)のと、先端の処理も本物の日本刀とは違う作り方です。
錆方も本物だと刃先がもっとボロボロになります。
日本人は「刀」にわざわざ「刀」と彫る人はいませんし、入れるとしても上下が逆です。
お土産用にしても、中国人や韓国人が日本人になりすまして作るような非常に粗悪なものです。
