thank you for not including random background music and just using the pure sound from your process
I'm a Japanese who knows a little about Katana. Your production process is not 100% correct. But most are correct. I've seen videos of making various Katana on other channels. In those videos, there was nothing that could be called a Katana to be honest, it was just a knife in the shape of a Katana. But your Katana is an unmistakable one, and even the Japanese swordsmith would have to admit it.
according to Japan....katana that's not made in japan are not considered as katana
Are you a Japanese or you are a Japanese expert bladesmith too?
Only an expert bladesmith can judge his work not a Japanese person
One katana give me please 😢
@@Counter-StrikeGOit doesn’t matter if he’s a expert or not there’s a ton of information online on how to make a real Japanese katana and what he did was not 100% correct do ur research
@@refrigerator3391 I already done my research. I already know Katana, Uchiganata, Nagamaki, Odachi, Tachi and Tanto.
It's nice to see someone actually forging the bevels on a blade. About 95% of the time they get their rough shape then go straight to the grinder. That's one of the best katana builds I've seen.

I used to make katanas myself but only out of Tamahagane it's a volcanic steel used for traditional katanas this one might look good but it's not a real one
My friend, are you all right? I hope you and your family are happy and healthy every day!
❣️🙏💯
Hell ya ! fukin BEAUTIFUL !
I love amatuer Katana forging, but this is by far is one of the best I've seen on RUclips. Great Work!

They say the soul of the Smith is reflected in their work, and that they forge a part of themselves in a truly special blade. This is undoubtedly one of those blades. Excellent work brother.
🙏💯❣️
This is one of the best forging videos I've seen. The slow-mo at 3:02 was really cool, getting to see how long it takes you to do each process was interesting, and the end product was next level.

Yes I can bro this why they cost so much
In it one video got luv it
@@thomasclemons2484 yeah
No kapp to us it's 21mins but he probably took like 5
I’m japanese.I was impressed to make not only the blade but also the koshirae. It ’s a wonderful work!!
There are so many channels that do this sort of thing, but honestly I have yet to find any that do it as well as you. The care you put into each item, with the editing quality and satisfying sounds, it's all top tier stuff! You deserve many, many more subscribers.
Yeah.. Whole lot of care went into that tsuka-ito lol bro too lazy to wrap a handle correctly how can the blade be any better quality? 🤣
My respect for the master. Not only for the skill to create a masterpiece, but also for the ability to make the process of creation look easy-to-perform. This is inspiring!

I've made stock removal tanto few months ago and It's cool to see differences in methodology between me and you Keaton:). However some things are the same: wrapping time and hand sanding lol.
Beautiful work Keaton! One of your best I think!
Thank you sir!
And that's why PPE is important, folks. You've earned my respect just for that. Good stuff. And great technique.
Man, you got some serious reflexes! Even with mask and goggles, that belt snap could have been disastrous 😳 Oh yeah, awesome katana too 😉
Not really lmao tsuka-ito looks nasty af.. Might as well have had someone with Parkinsons wrap the damn thing if it was gonna end up that janky 😂
@@weedconesuer If you didn't like it then why did you watch the video? Oh and by the way, are you basing that opinion off of your extensive knowledge of Bleach? Because that'd just make you a bloody weeaboo, and someone who Googles "katana parts" so that they can sound like they know what they're talking about.
I wish i have that one katana 😢
Presioso👍
@@jeferson668 Same!
Well done man . A true blacksmith . You hit that copper to a masterpiece.
I’ve watched a LOT of forging videos and this takes the cake in time investment and the work is beautifully made. Good job man! Subbed now
Yes beautifully made with that tsuka-ito looking like it was done by a pre-schooler 💀
Just the thumbnail is enough to show you the tsuka-ito is horribly spaced to the point it makes the handle look like something youd find on a toy sword in walmart bro smfh.. Disgrace to a genuine katana

Thoroughly impressed with the amount of detail and work you put into this. And that you used actual techniques the Japanese used when making their katanas. Subbed
ruclips.net/video/eA2YpXuUD7Qn/видео.html
he did every step wrong wtf are you on about
Sure maybe the techniques he used were done differently than how the Japanese do it, but in the end the processes were basically the same and he made a nice looking sword. That's all that matters
The belt popping off the sander scared the shit out me, just relaxing watching this video and the craftsmanship then BANG 😂
Much better than any other “katana” ive seen forged by other smiths, great job!

There is a lot of channels there that made a katana but yours is litterally like the Japanese made ones cuz its like the same way they made it like you forged 2 different steel together(the soft one on the inside and hard one on the outside) and i completely respect you for making it the right way.
You have it Reversed. The center needs to hold a sharp edge, so its made with harder and more brittle steel. The external steel is softer, allowing the sword to flex, and protecting the center from cracking.
Soft steel, like stainless, or other low-carbon steels... do not hold a good edge. They are difficult to sharpen, and they dull very quickly. But... they are more flexible.. and thus, less prone to shatter / break.
Hard high carbon steel... sharpens to a razor sharp edge, that you could shave your arm hairs with. That edge will last a long time... and yet, its easy to sharpen and re-sharpen. Only problem is... it does not flex much... and is more prone to cracking under impact stress.
The sword is make much like a Pencil:
Where a solid wooden rod flexes.. and is a dull material.. even if you try to sharpen it to a point. And the graphite lead, can be sharpened to nearly a level where it can easily puncture the skin. The wood prevents the brittle lead from easily breaking.. even when you drop it (center core is still solid).
That said... Graphite is not even close to the strength of a high carbon steel core. Its just using the same principle.
@@johndough8115 Technically this depends on the exact construction technique being employed, but in general you actually have it backwards. You want the center to be soft to provide a rugged, durable core that is more likely to bend so that it is more likely to survive brutal abuse (bending can usually be reset; snapping can't). The edge is generally an entirely separate piece of steel OR is part of the two pieces that form the exterior sides coming together over the core.
@@zacharyharwell351 You are wrong. Ive read up on Chinese swordmaking.
The harder the steel... the sharper the edge... BUT... the more Brittle the steel will become.
If you had the front edge of a sword be of the hardest of steel... the entire edge would easily shatter and crack right off.
As Ive said... look at a pencil. Its a flexible wood... that surrounds the hard but brittle core.
Wood itself is incapable of being sharpened to a fine point, that will be able to hold up to any stress. But the graphite lead, can be sharpened to a Needle like point... able to penetrate someones skin fairly easily.
If it were the other way around... when you dropped your pencil on the floor.. the exterior lead would shatter to pieces... and crumble off of the center wood core.
Again, the entire sword is made from a Mild semi-flexible steel... with a thin high carbon steel core, that can be sharped to a shaving edge.
This isnt rocket science... so if someone actually has made a mistake on their "Documentary" then they are complete Idiots, that do not understand basic Logic and Physics.
I salute your craftsmanship!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the build. The only thing that gives me pause is the length of the tang. I’m a little concerned that the handle will crack with testing. With that said, your finish work is far better than mine.
I thought the same thing. Great display piece, though.
Some guys are so talented and hard working
Excellent work. Looks like you have done a lot of studying. While the blade may not have been done in the genuine way still the rest was done very well. Totemo subareshi.

Amazing Katana, amazing job. How satisfying was that the habachi and the handle didn't slide loose but needed a push to fit in. I loved to know the timing notes too.
Artist.
Thank you very much, sir! What exactly do you mean by timing notes?
Oh meaning I liked to know how long it took to make the several steps and pieces as well as the whole job.
@@dudemakesstuff Oh gotcha gotcha
That was exceptional… I came for the hook being reclaimed but the details of everything else was very impressive. What type of steel did the hook feel like under the hammer? It seemed like fairly tough stuff. Also, did you ever do test cutting with this sword? I would be interested to see how the HT holds up! Thanks for the video
It turned out to be mild steel which is why I added the high carbon core
It probably wouldn't do all too well in cutting (since from my understanding it's not full tang, which means the blade doesn't run all the way through the handle. The sword is going to break if he tried to cut traditional tatami matt). But even so the result is quite amazing, the attention to detail is incredible
@@apsychedelic321 Katanas aren’t full tang. Not traditionally, anyway! This construction is standard.
@@TheDancingSaxophone well personally i wouldn't want my blade snapping half when i use it. you?
@@apsychedelic321 … how would different handle construction make the blade snap in half?
COMO A CURVATURA DELA NÃO FOI POR EMPENO NA HORA TÊMPERA, É SIMPLESMENTE UMA ESPADA BONITA. GOSTEI.
Attention to detail is impressive. Kudos
Watching this is incredibly satisfying.
Top excelente serviço
But the important question: "Does it keel?" :D I know it is, but I want to see it cut through something :D
I was going to ask the same!
it must keal
In the hand of a masterly Samurai it can split butter in one strike, chop onion, tomato and cucumbers!
Hi
Fun fact katanas are meant for looking cool not for battle. Battles can dull the bladd
Whoa!! Spectacular!!! Nice katana!! I like so much this weapon!! 😁😁😁👍👍👍
鉄の板をまっすぐ伸ばすだけでもすごく難しそうだ。素晴らしい。
I am japanese.I've never seen such a way of making katana.I was excited to see this video.However,It isn't the ture way of making it.Actually, the katana's curve is made by a tipe of iron and you can't forg a Katana from a Rusty Hook. This video is very interesting,but I don't want the watcher convince this katana is genuine article. I'm sorry to write a bad comment.The thing I want to say is " Japanese katanas are made by more difficult and more hard technology."
Understandable.
Maybe 1000 years ago. The harder technologies you speak of is a hammer and anvil. I'm sure if the ancient smith's could use modern tech they would have lol
@@x_Forsaken_x from what I read it just feels like the fact Faraway made a katana out of a rusty hook touched the man's pride
@@x_Forsaken_x You don't understand my wards meaning. katana can't became greatest sord in the world without this technogogy. we can't katana which this point is perfect and can't understand all of it by sience.
I understand what you mean Koukou. The katana is made by folding metal by hand dozens of times, not by just shaping some metal into a sword, but by hardening the blade with all the folds. Thats why katanas cut through everything and it’s armour, because they’re solid.
Mano faz uma dessa pra nós show de bola 🤣👍💪

ngl, that's some of the best power crossfeed on a mill I've ever seen.
I am Japanese. This is not a real way of making something, but I was very interested in the fact that there is such a way of making something. Different countries have different ways of thinking and making things, but the final destination is always the same, so I thought it was good to have this way of making things. They showed me some very good stuff. Very cool!!!!!👍️👍️👍️👍️👍️
I understand that this is not the traditional way of making a Japanese Katana, but using modern steal it is way superior to the traditional swords in the us of materials, less contaminants. The end result is still a perfect sword that reflects the skill of the craftsman. I agree on this is super cool. Thank you for sharing your comments.
Speechless, you should sign your work on the tang, so after 1000 years your name will forever be etched there. The sword is of top quality.
I don't know why ALL artists don't sign/date their work. I do, but am a woodworker. However, years ago (in Vietnam during the war) I DID "forge" some steel to make tools, some very large tools to work on my tank, and smaller tools for wood chisels (carving) -- I used the tank's hull (front armor) as an anvil. ;-)

The shaping is crazy without seeing other stuff I would have thought he’s going to melt it first but that’s probably hard to melt.

The Japanese steelmaking method uses iron sand and charcoal as materials. Japanese iron sand is a weathered magma with a low content of phosphorus and sulfur and contains vanadium. Charcoal has a low content of phosphorus and sulfur. Phosphorus and sulfur make steel brittle, and vanadium strengthens steel.
Iron ore and coal are high in phosphorus and sulfur and do not contain vanadium.
In tatara steelmaking, if the furnace is kept at 1300 ° C, iron sand will be in a semi-melted state, but only phosphorus, sulfur and impurities will be melted and discharged.
So impurities have been removed from the tamahagane of the katana material. It has less impurities than modern steel. Low temperature furnaces have excellent steel toughness because the grain size of steel becomes smaller. In a high temperature furnace, the grain size of the steel becomes large, which makes the steel brittle and reduces its toughness.
Vanadium makes steel more malleable and easier to roll, making it easier to fold.
By folding, vanadium is finely dispersed and combined with carbon to form a fine metal structure, so katana has excellent hardness, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and toughness, and it becomes beautiful when sharpened.
Hitting the steel with a hammer removes the carbon along with the sparks, reducing the carbon content to 0.7%, which is suitable for katana.
The approximate amount of carbon can be determined by the shape of the spark. By folding, the katana steel is in a state where austenite and martensite, which have different hardness structures, are dispersed.
When katana is sharpened with a Japanese sharpening stone, austenite is scraped off and martensite remains, so the blade becomes like a micro saw.
That's why Japanese knives are pulled when cutting.
