Forging a Katana from Junk, v2

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

I love it! Particularly the speaker wire handle, great idea! 👍

[@YadLeinad]

I must say that your builds always impress me. As a black smith I'm working on my first katana and to be honest I'm mostly just copying what you do in your builds

[@YadLeinad]

as a side note I'm poor, so I built all my own equipment.

[@FarawayForge]

That's great! That's exactly how I got my start. I would recommend watching walter sorrel's videos, or, if you can swing it, buying his DVD set about forging Japanese blades. It's INCREDIBLY informative, though it is price at ~$300 USD

[@MxEuphemia]

There are so many amazing builds in this challenge, but this is deffo my favourite You truly understood the assignment This is exactly what I would expect a post apocalyptic katana to look like Well done!

[@Kms0108]

Super cool meeting ya at snowport!

[@PJTForging]

That came out looking so good. That speaker wire wrap! 🤌

[@JPsBladeworks]

That sword came out sick. I like the guard.

[@panedrop]

I really like the choices of materials used here and repurposed in a way that emulates the traditional techniques here. As much as I like the other smiths, you've got my vote this time around.

[@glebtcheslavski1085]

Very creative! The bike tire and a speaker wire are definite hit!

[@barthanes1]

Not showing the torch in the time lapse is a pretty cool effect. The next section suddenly becomes orange and you make the bend.

[@dipereira0123]

Thats totally an Iron-punk representation! perfectly fit the mad-max style! nice!!

[@lotsoffreetime8392]

Man i never thought that fast forward video is that good and entertaining to watch.

[@gilbertbarucdias6621]

This is really sick. Well done, it's a wonderful piece

[@aviweisbach7816]

Very cool build! Love your choice of materials, especially wrapping the piece of chain around the tsuba.

[@mike-zh4kf]

Nicely done my dude. Keep being awesome.

[@barthanes1]

I'm not sure why I find it so rewarding to make things out of garbage/found items. I think it might be the uniqueness of the item coupled with the fact that it could be rotting in a landfill if i hadn't used it. They are all my most prized possessions.

[@Kratos_God_of_50_BMG]

Bad ass post-apocalyptic katana Keaton! Well done 😁🤘🏽

[@soroushmohammadi3436]

Nice work 👍

[@leoduthoit1689]

Awesome. A masterpiece again !

[@mjweber0313]

An absolute one off 👍🙌

[@aaronperkins4654]

Traditional apocalyptico...love it

[@RoyFokker02]

Every time I see in your title Katana making I'm watching the video. I'm in. 👍👍

[@cutelariaharpia]

Your work was incredible! I would say that your thumbnail does not do justice to the quality and creativity of your work as it does not show the details of the materials you chose. I underestimated the quality of your piece because of her. I loved the choose of materials and the similarity to the construction of an original katana! Congratulations!

[@claudiaramos3840]

Nice work that you have were man.

[@mattbarrett41]

Generations of bladesmiths are wondering:”What did I just watch?”

[@Rex-ik6ng]

I always Love the grunge look 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@maurriceschaffner8303]

Any video were you/anyone makes a super Katana ▬▬ι═══════ﺤ I'm watching it all

[@SalaSala-s2x]

May God bless you with health and wisdom ❤❤❤❤

[@Cocadovabear77]

Was recently working on a sword, and when I went to the hardware store to look for handle wrap because the craft store next-door was closed, I looked at speaker wire and went nah…. Before settling on hockey laces thank you for proving me wrong😂

[@externalaffairsporter]

You did a very good job, keep up the good work. It was nice meeting you at the snowport today. I just subscribed to your channel my man man.

[@andyc750]

looks well cool

[@TorturedSoul76]

Very cool

[@offcenterforge1098]

Beautiful!

[@procrastinatinggamer]

I've heard of spring steel but I've never seen this kind before. :P

[@edwardpartlow4132]

I wouldn’t have the patience to straighten out that spring 😂

[@mathieuangevin8779]

Bravo c'est très contemporain

[@RingTheAnvil]

This is cool, could be a weapon in the Fallout series of games. Well done

[@robbiehively4056]

That is a badass katana

[@coreyrowe2052]

I must say, it started as a piece of junk and still looked like junk at the end. However, it seemed functional and was actually a work of art once you saw the process👍 Dint judge a book by it's cover!

[@jared-matthewanderson8844]

6:09 "coppah toobin"

[@Joe-nb3fs]

I don't know much about metal. Will this sword have any durability when it's just a spring that's been untwisted?

[@Kratos_God_of_50_BMG]

That is 5160 spring steel taken from a cars suspension system, so if it can be used on cars I think it’ll more than do the job for a katana. Spring steel swords can sometimes be bent 45°-90° and return back to straight.

[@Bad_Grandpa92]

Does the katana come with a scabbard?

[@Erduk]

No performance test at the end...?

[@MrBroski766]

You know how you made the blades of chaos, well it was great and please make the blade of Olympus.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@desenholandoyt]

Do you plan on returning to Forged in Fire some day?

[@Kratos_God_of_50_BMG]

I don’t know why they haven’t invited him back yet? 😕

[@desenholandoyt]

@@Kratos_God_of_50_BMG I guess he is the one who needs to subscribe to participate

[@FarawayForge]

They only invite you back if your episode gets particularly good ratings. Also I think they're done filming it, not 100% sure

[@desenholandoyt]

@@FarawayForge what a shame... But you couldn't subscribe to participate again?

[@FarawayForge]

@@desenholandoyt No it doesn't work like that unfortunately

[@Arjunshortvideo53]

Wow nice 👍❤

[@jameswade787]

But how many cuts can it conduct before it loses sharpness

[@thetjdman]

You do know that katanas aren't forged with the curve, right? They are forged straight, clayed, and then quenched which curves the blade from the difference in cooling speed between the bear steel and the clayed steel.

my question too. quick oil change?

[@Imaboss8ball]

A lot of your links in the description don't work.

[@FarawayForge]

Thank you, I'll fix them

[@CuGuttaNYC]

Ive seen a million videos of swords being forged from the finest steel and crazy damascus patterns bla bla bla. This is the best sword ive ever seen and i want it

[@stephenmeyer3056]

I want it!! 😂

[@noneyabidness9644]

I kinda really dig the wire handle wrap.

[@amirlordman5697]

Hello, dear teacher. I made a sword 100 cm long. To test this sword, my client hit it hard and with all his strength against the iron beam that was fixed in the wall and some of the edge of the sword was crushed. Is hitting the sword with that force to test the sword a correct test or not? thank you

[@jerrylee087]

👌👌👌very nice work of art🫶

[@killerbern666]

if mad max had a katana

[@St_Clair85]

Muito bom!

[@lunarkomet]

Made with actual spring steel

[@traos9091]

how much you want for it? 👀

[@mattewclubb5882]

That’s not a katana that’s a pile of junk! A pile of beautiful junk art!

[@DawahTrucker2024]

Damn you could've been a bit nicer. I understand that it wasn't a piece of art work and I agree he could've done a lot better but still in the end I would've loved to see him test it.

[@mattewclubb5882]

@@DawahTrucker2024 yeah I’m saying it’s junk but a work of art!
