Holy moly. I can't believe this video exists. I've been scouring the internet trying to find even just a hobbyist forging a Hitsu Nata so I can see how it's really done. Finding an authentic "vintage" video of the real process is something I could never have asked for. Thanks so much for this upload!
I'm glad you liked it!
thanks
beautiful immensely beautiful!
The Japanese in my opinion are the best artisans in the world. They make the best blades, Meiji bronzes, silver, stoneware, woodblock prints, stone lanterns, craft whisky, etc. They are simply amazing. What a nice video :)
Hardly. this is just a billhook , we have used them in the UK for well over a 1,000 years.
@@DarrenMalin You didn't really offer an argument against what he said. He said they were the best artisans and claimed they make the best blades. You responded with durrrr it's just a bilhook. A gormless response from a gammon.
Great to see Japanese blacksmiths in action... 👍🏻👍🏻
YES! More blacksmithing videos! Yay!
I’m not sure if until this time, I have actually felt peace, while watching craftsman work.
And tho I am not able to read Japanese yet, the mastery and technical knowledge, says more than words can describe ♥️🙇♂️
Namaste 🙏
Enjoyed and Thumbs Up
This is the 1st time I've seen the process of creating laminated steel blades in a semi-production process. It's a cross between standard old time blacksmith forge welding and 'modern' steam hammer forging. By simply hammering the preform of high carbon steel into the blank and fluxing it, it's done in a flash. I was envisioning careful cutting, folding of the outer jacket and then forge welding the layers before shaping, all as individual steps. Instead the rough blank gets the preformed high carbon section driven into the spine and fluxed before closing and finally hammering to complete the weld and close the spine. Japanese processes like this usually turn out to be simpler than expected, but very clever in execution, making a seemingly complex process simple, but usually quite dependent upon craftsmanship and individual skill.
Thanks for the look at this fading art. Very interesting.
WOW best point, Thanks for your time!
wow-im impressed. traditional japanese tool made with modern equipment.
how to keep tradition and costs down
Loved the video, I so enjoy using traditional tools. I wish I could purchase and use traditional Japanese tools too.
!!! TOP
You have an interesting life. Thanks!/ Natali/
Обожаю смотреть, как японские мастера работают с деревом и металлом.👍
Very nice video. Great to see tools being hand made. I would love to know more about the first tool and how it is used. All the tools would be great to use.
I have one of this🥰
I like japanese craft
glad you like it!
👍👍👍
Excelent job, excelent músic the best.
I would've preferred to hear the sound of the process. The first tool shown we call a brush axe here. It is good to see the process, it is a selling point onto it's self.
I think the English name is bill, the same bill as in billhook the polearm. It really surprises me how many today don't know what that blade is though it has been used for a thousand years all over Eurasia. Similarly, many don't know what a tesla is (I don't know the name in English). That type of axe was around since the stone age!
@@edi9892 tesla is adze in english
The first one looks like a Gertel it's a traditional forest tool in Bavaria too xD
The hitz-nata what is its use limbing or de-barking wish these and some of the other tools were available in the us.
it is just a billhook , we have used them in the UK for well over a 1,000 years.
I hope that this beautiful work is still being done. I suppose so, because there's a contact address. I have a few Japanese woodworking tools; they are superlative. Thank you for posting this video. I just find that the seeded-up images are not always fun to follow. This is high-precision work, and it deserves to be watched in real time motion.
Sorry, I meant SPEEDED-UP images
That's a brush hook! Been an American tool since the 1800's. Like a machete for heavier brush.
Also known as a bill hook, a utilitarian adaptation of the European Bill from the 1600-1700s as a polearm. Just goes to show that what works works, no matter the culture
a lot of this stuff i've in europe
Exactly the same axe "tsaldi" is in Georgia.
Please don't speed up the videos
When I was 17, I worked in a heavy production plant with machines like we see here. I can promise the reader that these men have little to no hearing left and that they almost certainly have deeply compromised lungs from all the dust. Life expectancy would be greatly reduced, and yet this is what they did to support their families and see that their children had a better life then they.
When you worked in havey prod did have shirt and a west like you gooing for a party too????????
@@tomaslundell4842 you are asking about my cloths?
@@laurencelance586 Chill... just joking haha !!!!!!

Its crazy to force feed the advertisements, why not at the end, if we choose to watch we can.
I would prefer not to hear the boring music, but the original sound of forging... Also to see it in double- or more speed is annoying. If it takes too long, please cut! It would be very interesting also to watch how people use those tools exactly...
0.75 speed is just right
song at 12:48?
What's unusual about these tools?
What? No Benny Hill theme song?
Plz rather use original sounds instead of music
It is a nice video. However, I think it would be better served without the music. The story would be much more interesting and better told if the sounds of the blacksmith shop was used instead of a soft music background. I found it boring and was putting me to sleep. I'm a blacksmith and love the sounds of smiths and master craftsmen at work. The man in this video looks like a master craftsman. But I don't hear the sound of him doing his work. The music destroys the magic of blacksmithing and just makes a film a little bit interesting. Without the sounds of the smith at work it's boring...
The title is just one big clickbait lie...
how
@@gammazzz3894 There's nothing incredible or unique about these tools, pretty basic stuff, and no ones mind has ever been blown by any of this.
@@rudimunk7030 If you had ever done any of this work, you would appreciate what's going on here. It's so far ahead of most viewers understanding of the process, they don't understand what they are seeing. For example, the machete is being formed of laminated steel, where a preformed blank of high carbon steel is being sandwiched between 2 layers of softer steel, the high carbon gives a easily sharpened durable edge, while the more flexible soft steel surrounding it keeps the blade from breaking. This is all being formed into a solid blank while shaping the blank to it's final form. This is typically a process that takes many heats and a lot of skilled hand work to complete successfully. Here it's all done in seconds. If you look closely at the photos of the finished blade, you can see the darker steel where the high carbon edge is seamlessly formed into the blade.
@@scottmarshall6766 Does anything you just mentioned change how basic these tools are? No.
@@scottmarshall6766 still very common tools used all over east and south east Asia, just made with nicer craftsmanship. So clickbait.
love the video but i hate the title.
Sadly the video made me feel sea sick 🤢
Дебильный ютуб!
This video is COMPLETELY MISLABELED. You showed us how those tools are made but gave no indication on what the hell they're for! Didn't blow my mind at all. I saw a bunch of people making tools and nobody using them
music at 9:45?
