I am always amazed at the blade-smiths who call a sword a katana when it is barely the length of a combat wakizashi.

[EgoundderRest]

Ich denke, das kurze Schwert nennt man Wakizashi. Ein Katana ist viel länger. Trotzdem: Eine gute Arbeit! 👍🏻👋🏻

As a knife maker, this guy makes a top notch scrap metal producer.

*Excellent man, thank you for sharing your work, God bless you*

I like the way he made an honest effort but the grip and tang are a war crime

[FromTheHeartWoodMK]

As goes effort, this is an interesting video, the tang and guard could have used a lot more care in my opinion. My biggest concern is that nails are not a good quality steel and are not hardenable in general. When he was grinding the steel after welding it you can see that it only produces orange sparks without the blooming effect at the tip of the sparks, this is indicative of mild steel or low carbon steel. Doubtful that this blade will hold an edge for very long if at all.

There's no way in hell that will ever hold an edge.

Howdy Master Seyran ! Your videos are very impressive to watch & that, looks like a Katana to me! I love how you slice your melons! Always great to watch you make Art-Weapons ! Keep on pounding & I’ll keep watching!

I admire your work, but you for a moment lost me but you keep yourself busy and that is

Hmm... while the vinegar would dissolve the zinc plating, I'm surprised he didn't use something a little stronger.
I know people will comment about how wire nails are a mild steel, which is true enough, but there is a chance some of the carbon from the charcoal will infuse/case harden layers of the blade, which could increase its hardness with the forging process.
The only way to know for sure would be to do a before and after test of the nails, then the blade to see if there's any difference in the mild steel compared to the tempered blade... ONE possible option for case hardening the blade, would be to set the forged blade in a box tube, then fill it with crushed charcoal, then apply sufficient heat, this should infuse additional carbon into the blade which, in turn could case harden it during the final tempering.

I only have one real bone of contention with this tool...
... well, those who know me are well aware of my distain for rat tails tangs... 🤷‍♂
Either way, it looks cool and I LOVE the bamboo handle!!!

Dude roughed in his edge with a big ass grinding wheel 😂 what a stud.
Mine would be a new "wavy edge" katana

[AstronSayera]

It's mostly a machete inspired by Japanese wakizashi but definitely not a katana.

Гвозди несомненно лучший материал для изготовления клинка.

[HakanOzkan-folr]

Let's not call it gigantic. I think we should call it chisa-katana.( short katana)

[chrissparrow]

Mate that was amazing to watch !!! What was that stuff you used to fix the handle ????

[جمالزيادة-سر]

well done. My grandfather made a sword that cut a cucumber

[twocrowsknows]

I like how you smashed it on the anvil with that first swing 😂
