While in Japan (former marine) a friend invited us to his grandfathers home. There his grandfather had his samurai grandfathers sword. Not sure how many generations it had been passed down but a lot. Anyway his grandfather asked if we would like to see as hold the sword. We sat on our feet/ on our knees and they preyed and preyed for me and then after 5-8 minutes his grandfather picked up the sword said something and waited. Then he handed the sword to my friend and then to me. It was amazing. Not only is it a work of art it’s living proof of the soul or a samurai. It’s amazing. I don’t know how to explain it.

@danielhampson 6 ай бұрын

It's the two different types of metal that create the curve. The claying creates the hamon.

@TMJ21 Ай бұрын

@@danielhampson Actually, not quite right, the two types of metal is to give the edge a hardness to retain sharpness and a core that is soft metal that allows flexibility to prevent breakage. The curve actually comes from the application of clay and heating, hence, the thicker application of clay on the spine or Tang. I learnt all this from KZbin too. :D

I personally own two old katanas, one from 17th century, one from late 18th/early 19th (they were examined and dated by anthropologist specializing in Japanese antiquity at the University of Nevada Reno). I'm extremely privileged to have acquired these, and they're more amazing in person than any video could ever do justice, all katana are. The craftsmanship and history of these blades is so fascinating (I mean Japanese swords in general, not just mine specifically)

@omerfarukfettahoglu234 7 ай бұрын

What fascinates us is not the sword they make. What impresses me personally is the level of perfection that this sword has reached over the centuries. Just think, achieving perfection in a period far removed from the age of science is truly admirable.

It's very nice to see the development of a katana. In my opinion, it's not just the simple work, it's also a high degree of spirituality that comes into play. Because I have been practicing Schotokan Karate since my youth, now 4 Dan, I have a connection to Japan. I had Sensai Hideo Otschi as a teacher, who also conveyed a lot of the Japanese mentality. I've had a Japanese katana for many years, not as high quality as yours, but still very good. And a blade like that is something to be treasured. Thank you for letting me watch you make it.

@chrisnull3658 4 ай бұрын

@@jingzhao9841 Yes, it is two different types of clay that insulate the steel differently so that the edge cools faster while the spine cools slower. The slower the steel cools the more carbon escapes from the steel to soften and make it more flexible. The edge cools quickly becoming harder, and also more brittle, but also causing it to warp back creating the bend in the blade.

温度計もない時代に鉄の色を見て温度が分かる職人、鉄の融点は１５００℃は現代科学の温度計で測ったもの。昔、TV番組で日本刀を固定しておいて拳銃で撃った見事に弾丸が真二つになった。その番組では頭に来たのかマグナム銃を取り出してきた。さすがにマグナムの銃数発で刀は欠けてしまった。個人的に日本製の鋼の牛刀を４０年使っているが、研いで使ってきたので当初より短くなってしまったが、未だに切れ味は最高で最近購入した物よりも重さも刃の厚みもしっかりしている。昔の物は丁寧に作られている。
