Hi I’m Japanese. I’m amazed how it looks! If you do folding the soft heated metal and pounding for around 6 times then shape, it will be looking more stronger and beautiful! Also, using cray and coal mixed water and draw waves before the last bake session, it will gives great waves on it too!! :) Sorry if it sounded arrogant. I just wanted to give some more info cos it already looked very nice without them.

Then if it passes it, push it beyond reasonable limits and see how much it can take before it fails.

Some of the western katana today have no soft core like the traditional Japanese swords which is the original way of making one. Traditional ones are more harder to make but last longer because the core absorbs the force and reduces blunt impact when in contact with solid objects. Solid steel like this will either snap in the center or chip bigger. The weight distribution should be in the hand area, and the tip weight must be lighter compared to the center, and hand area. hand area = heavy center area = medium tip area = light

To be honest, Keaton, given that your forging videos are mostly ASMR, it's really relaxing to see you work your swords out if ordinary metals. Personally, it would be nice if you can either reduce or eliminate any time-skipping because: 1. It would spoil the relaxing effect and appreciation in how you work; and 2. Frequent timeskipping can be quite annoying in certain conditions. On the other hand, your purpose is basically to show us how you make swords out of any metal you can find; the processing time is your own.....I also suppose there are other viewers who won't have the patience to see you work for over an hour. Still, it is relaxing. Thanks.

[@Helperbot-2000]

@@inisipisTV yeah, but it depends how that weight is used. european longswords while beeing similar in weight are significantly longer aswell as the fact theyre made of way higher quality steel which means they have proper springyness to them making them durable and nimble. while katanas are shorter for their weight aswell as alot thicker to make up for the lower quality steel the japanese had access to at the time, its impressive how well they could utilizen the steel they had, but its unfortunate how brittle their swords were. the steel quality is also why they were folded a few dozen times, it was done to remove some of the impurities but more importantly even them out to prevent large weak points

[@SeviathTheHumanDrago]

@@Helperbot-2000 They didn't have steel native to Japan either. Most of their katanas were made of pure iron ore sand. I've watched a KZbin video of how a traditional Japanese person said they harvested the iron for their swords and they would go to the beach with a magnetic rock and draw it over the sand until they had a decent amount of it. Man at Arms reforged is a good channel and Ilya always tries to make Japanese katanas the traditional way when he gets to make them. In fact the metal was so brittle before hardening that Katanas are "supposed" to be straight and they curve when going into the water for hardening, very cool to see it done.

[@Helperbot-2000]

@@SeviathTheHumanDrago well no they did have steel steel isnt separate from iron, you make steel WITH iron and carbon, and so yes they used iron ore sand. they didnt use magnets) but their steel making process was quite poor and so they couldnt make very high quality steel, it had alot of impurities (which is the reason they were folded, to even out the impurities and remove them slightly. but yeah the curving is interresting, as the edge was covered, it didnt harden as much as the back dise, and so the backside would shrink faster curving it, its a bit like a bi-metallic strip!
