Hi there. I would like to tell you that I am from Pakistan and you pronounced it wrong, this weapon is "Churaey" not "Charay" please pronounce it correctly

I don't think it was only a sword, i think they could also use it as a Meat Cutter, if they hunt a Boar and roast it they could also cut the meat easily!

Really shows how having a heavy blade swings both ways in this show, sometimes the opponent's blade breaks cause it's too light or thin and that gives the 'edge' over to the guy who had a heavier weight

[@bennyharry9839]

Of all the blades up to this point on the show, this is one of my favorites. The idea of the T-shaped spine is brilliant for strength. If I had to sword fight, I'd want something strong like this.

@Gravity Racer GT oh yeah definitely, there is no way those weapons looked like the way they show them in movies, especially, just like you said, they would've had to make tons of weapons on a rushed time limit, so looking pretty I think was least of their worries, I bet as long as it would keal, that's a that mattered back then

As an Afghan this needs correction, its not "charay" its Chara which means knife in Pashto. But we call this a Tura which just means "sword" in Pashto language.

@Viper That shouldn't be an excuse to get the terminolgy wrong.

[@ritamayachattakhandi6732]

Chara in Pashto is derived from the same root as Chhuri in Urdu (again means knife), was really confused by the added Y at the end. your post clarifies that. Aren't Turas longer and with a more gentle taper?

[@TheAfghan72]

@@ritamayachattakhandi6732 No its not, its strictly and Afghan word which means knife. "Churi" and "Choora" just Indian corruption of this word and hence wrongly pronounced. Tura just means sword.

Yeah I never really liked that test because at most it'll just dull the edge, they need to stick to bashing the sword into stuff so we get a bit more of a show

[@nickeldime6713]

It seems to be a fairly useless test honestly. Unless the blade is about ready to break, it doesn't seem like the bullet will do much to it. The bullet has dulled some blades a bit, but that is about it. The test feels more like it just exists to be showy, rather than a truely practical test.

when the tests end like this, they should make one more test, "blade against blade"... because the weight its not enough to judge a blade at least for me.

It's almost always the lighter blade that wins

[@williamlockhartnelson8873]

If you can move the blade faster you tend to win fights.

[@maxlutz3674]

In the episode with the claymore the lighter blade lost. It was not stiff enough to perform. It is a rare thing though.

[@railander]

If it is supposed to be light, yes.

[@guilhermeweber2340]

Also, consider that these judges probably have a flexibility about this, I trust when they call a blade heavy it's because it is WAY heavier than it should, and not just slightly

[@nickeldime6713]

I mean logically it makes sense, lighter means easier to wield and typically a faster swing. However I believe there has been a few times where the lighter blade broke on the durability test, so making a light weapon is good, but you could run the risk of making it to weak.

There are reports from British Surgeons saying that if these warriors used their swords to thrust as well as cut they would be able to do infinitely more damage. This tells us that they mostly used the weapons to cut and chop, rather than thrust.

@@midnightmosesuk Both terms are technically wrong, the British just called it "Khyber" because that's where they first observed the weapon but it was also used in Afghanistan as well. The term "Knife" is also wrong because Afghans called the smaller Pesh-Kabz dagger a "chara" which means Knife in our language Pashto. We have always refered to these as swords.

No, the khyber knife was NOT used for penetrating through armour. It was a cutting weapon. It’s actually the pesh-kabz (the dagger version) which was used to penetrate through chainmail armour. Some research on these shows beforehand would be beneficial.

[@williamlockhartnelson8873]

I always thought of it as an overlapped kitchen knife. Till I got stabbed by a kitchen knife. Those things to hella damage.

[@edi9892]

I don't know if it's a joke, but yes, some kitchen knives will do a lot of damage, especially in the thrust (as they often lack heft and stability for chopping). I do know someone who got slashed by a pole-mounted kitchenknife and indirectly, I do know more people who had been injured or killed by kitchen knives. A good one can even go through the skull!

[@kronos1794]

I'm curious as the what specs the smiths are given before they start forging. If the blade was actually too heavy then it shouldn't have passed the spec to compete. If it was within spec then too heavy is subjective. There are just a few small details about the judging that I disagree with, but overall it's still an awesome show!

[@nickeldime6713]

Not completely sure, but they might cut some stuff out for KZbin. I have seen clips before where they did talk about and show the specific specs they needed to have. In that one they were just given a maximum weight they couldnt go over. But I mean weight really isn't a subjective thing. One person could be right at that line for weight limit (which I think in that episode the one guy was), and the other person could be well under it. typically a lighter blade is just simply easier to wield, and therefore easier to attack with. Of course you don't want it to be so light that you make it easily breakable, and things like balance can also play a huge roll. They have had times before where they remarked that the blade seemed a bit heavy, but because it was so well balanced it felt good to swing.

[@brianbumgardner8704]

[@TurboWock]

Chopping into tulip softwood doesn’t show much, I could use a Stanley and get wedges out without nicking the blade too much 😂
