That was awesome, I love how you can see the quench at the end create the curve of the sword.

Iron sand in Japan is titano-magnetite iron sand contained in granite weathered by magma, and is called Masasatetsu. Iron sand weathered from basalt is called Akomesatetsu and contains titanium. This iron sand has low phosphorus and sulfur content and contains vanadium. Phosphorus and sulfur are impurities that make steel brittle.Vanadium strengthens steel. Iron ore and coal are high in phosphorus and sulfur and do not contain vanadium. In ancient Japan, slag was called noro, and the process of removing slag was called noro dashi or noro shibori. In tatara ironmaking, the iron sand is semi-molten by keeping the furnace at 1300℃, but only phosphorus, sulfur and impurities and slag are melted and discharged. So impurities and slag are removed from the material tamahagane of katana. It is produced using the same tamahagane material as katana, a high-end kitchen knife made in Japan. The low-temperature reduction method makes the grains of the steel smaller, so the steel has excellent toughness. Vanadium makes the steel malleable and easy to roll, making it easy to fold. By folding, the vanadium is finely dispersed and combined with carbon to form a fine metal structure, so the katana has excellent hardness, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and toughness, and becomes beautiful when sharpened. Hitting the steel with a hammer removes the carbon with a spark, so the carbon content drops to 0.7%, which is suitable for katana. The approximate amount of carbon can be determined by the shape of the spark. By folding, the steel of katana is in a state where austenite and martensite, which have different hardnesses, are dispersed. When a katana is sharpened with a Japanese sharpening stone, the austenite is removed and martensite remains, so the blade becomes like a microscopic saw. That's why Japanese knives sharpen when cutting. China and Mongolia developed blast furnaces earlier than the West, but from around the 10th century they imported katana from Japan and used it in their armies. China also had swords like longswords and rapiers, but based on katana, Qijiadao, wodao, and miaodao were developed. Chinese Ming Dynasty military scholar Mao Yuanyi (1594-1640) “The katana is extremely strong and sharp, and the Chinese sword is no match for the katana.'' British adventurer Sir Edward Michelbourne (1562-1609) “The Japons are not suffered to land in any port in India (Asia) with weapons; being accounted for a people so desperate and daring, that they are feared in all places where they come .” Spanish trader Bernardino de Avila Giron (- after 1619)"The quality of Japanese steel crushes European steel at the first blow." Around 1970, Japanese steel company Hitachi Metals analyzed and applied tatara and tamahagane to develop Yasugi Specialty Steel (yasugi hagane) and built a sponge iron plant. Yasugi Steel has the same properties as katana, so it is hard, impact-resistant, and hard to break. This special steel is used for various purposes such as cutlery steel, high-end kitchen knife material, razor material(Gillette,Schick,Wilkinson razor steel), automobile parts material, automobile engine parts, and aircraft engine parts. Japanese knives and zwilling Japanese knives are made from steels such as Blue Steel (Aogami) and White Steel (Shirogami) based on Yasugi Steel. Around the 6th century, high-quality iron sand could be mined in the Yasugi region, so it became a town of iron manufacturing. Yasugi City is currently producing Yasugi Specialty Steel at the Hitachi Metals factory and exporting it to the world. Steelmaking engineers at the Hitachi Metals plant learn the traditional tatara ironmaking process. In the 14th century, katana craftsmen migrated to Seki City and produced katana in large quantities. Seki City still produces katana and knives. German knife maker zwilling parsed tamahagane for katana material. zwilling manufactures high-end kitchen knives made from Japanese steel in its Japanese factory.

Modern Japanese kitchen knives are made of several steels namely, aogami the blue steel but also shirogami which is less hard but a bit tougher. Also yes some Japanese knives like the yanagiba are mostly used with pull cuts but a lot of other knives like the Nakiri, gyuto or santoku are often used with push cuts so not sure how realistic the micro serations really are, especially because Japanese knives often have a highly polished edge so I don't think it matters much.

@@Broody58 Vanadium has been detected in 3rd century ironware, according to a survey of ironware in Japanese archaeological sites. Iron sand contains vanadium and iron ore does not contain vanadium. Therefore, it seems that Japan has been using iron sand as the material for iron making since the 3rd century. Japanese iron sand is iron sand that has been weathered by magma. Since there were many volcanoes in Japan, a lot of iron sand can be collected from the mountains. When soil is poured into a waterway, the soil and iron sand are separated by the specific gravity and iron sand can be collected. This method is called kannanagashi. Since the place that used to be kannanagashi was reused as rice terraces, there are still many rice terraces in Japan, and some are preserved as cultural properties.

Those lines pressed into that clay is what controls the curve? Marked sword is heated uniformly to that color but during quenching the material under the lines dissipates heat faster than the coated parts... and the side with the base of the triangles radiates it the most... thus contracting asymmetrically and creating the bend? That is... Wait, the blade is already slightly curved just before quenching so... the markings worked already... and in the tank they correct side bends..

It's even more impressive when you take in to account that Japanese steel was actually an inferior steel by many standards. True authentic Japanese swords even made the traditional way today require certain care and maintenance that is not generally found in most modern blades. The fact that they are able to make a formidable blade, albeit with certain downsides, is nothing short of absolutely incredible.

@@joshschneider9766 it's not high carbon content ore it's made from iron sand and the metal is inferior in a way it made for a stronger blade but the metal is more brittle and couldn't hold an edge in battle which is the reason they were constantly in need of sharpening their blades regardless of the metal the durability of a sword comes down to the smith and how many times he wants to fold the metal more layers = more durability
@outsideiskrrtinsideihurt699 Жыл бұрын
@@OldManLuffy the whole point of a sword is to cut and you can’t do that without an edge. You really think they bee content with such brittle edges for hundreds of years? In reality they had lots of niku on the blade to compensate for the hardness. Brittleness is not just hardness but shape too. Also more folds does not equal higher durability. If you fold the bullet to much you will lose carbon and have a lower carbon blade, therefore a softer blade and therefore a less durable blade. If more folds = more durability then you’d see swords smiths fold their swords way more than they did historically (in the teens)
