Want.
I gotta stop watching these videos... They always make me want to start looking for local blacksmiths. ._.;
Every Iowan blacksmith I've looked up is more of an artistic welder than someone capable of forging a sword. :/

Need to stop reading the comments, so much stupid lol. "Now I'm no expert but he didn't make it the right way" or if it's a katana "he didn't use tamahagane so it's inferior to a real one"

Even though tamahagane isn't as good lol.

I'm glad I'm one of the few people who controls himself by almost never reading the comments on any video. \o/

The funniest thing is when the sword (which is 84 inches long) wobbles/bends a bit when he cuts stuff with it

Of *** course it's gonna wobble/bend, it's huuuuuuge and impractical

Then they start commenting on the folds and how they should be folding it like hundreds of times when the Japanese swordsmiths would fold a sword maybe 8 times lol

84 in swords aren't impractical, that's a fairly standard Zweihander length. They definitely didn't wobble much more than a typical sword would. Most European swords had a fair amount of flexibility though.

Not to mention folding modern steel is stupid., Blades were folded back then to remove slag and to distribute the carbon better. Folding too much would undo the carbon distribution. And doing it to modern steel would decrease the quality of the steel you started with. :|

It's impractical for that design though

Ah, yeah. The original Man at Arms stuff seemed rushed as hell. The reforged series seems a lot more detail and quality oriented.

Didn't know you were talking about the Masamune episode. The issue is most likely that they treated it like a western sword instead of a katana. Katana's are stupidly stiff blades due to the extent of edge hardening they do. They're not meant to bend at all.

I wish I had a cnc lathe to use at work :<
Here's a gif of one of the machines I use running though!

Wish it was as neat as the lathe but this machine cuts very slow for maximum accuracy +/- .00005" if I need it :3

Also, first time ever making a gif from videos I've recorded. Never used video compression software before, is it normal for it to 100% cpu? lol

Man I was a terrible shitbird at 9-12 thank god I didn't have the Internet like you kojo lol

No one tells you that you can't...finish until your older. So I'd have moron exploratory sex for fun with whichever other 8-12 year old boys or girls that are over at the time and think "I need to see my doctor, something's not working or broken" etc lol

I think I'm too critical when it comes to swords and stuff but that Double Helix video up there, doesn't even look good. It's apprentice quality.

Kinda not makes me watch anymore of their vids.
