Thanks for making this video, I've learned a lot from this, and the comments under mine about all the big mistakes I made. I'm really just a newbie when it comes to weapons and building stuff, but I'll get better. I appreciate it!
Hey mate thanks for watching 👍🏼 and I’m sure your Version 2 will be better and I’ll be sure to watch , and hey making things and playing with weapons is worth it!
I saw your original video, and it was a really cool idea, but if you can you manage to make a better Invisitachi (Or maybe actually a invisitana this time) that would be an incredible bounce back :D
I watched your video. It was a cool idea. Keep up the good work.
I would say it is still a cool Idea to See an invisble katana. Your Video was fun to watch and leads to a Screen tested Video . That mean your Video get attention and people Talk about IT.
This is a success as a Content Creator .
You Make great Work.
Cutting Test could be better
Sometimes we need to understand the difference between fiction and science, practicality and appeal, dreams and reality and finally the ability to have fun without being a perfectionist.
That demonstration at the end, holding the squash while trying to slice bits of it off really tells the whole story. Any blade that could hold a reasonable edge would slice right though that effortlessly.
You're missing the most important part... the whole premise of the video was to create an "invisible" sword. You can't do that with steel, and polycarbonate has specific properties and limitations that were clearly stated in Mike's video. What he achieved was very impressive, not as a real, practical sword, but as a highly transparent "blade" that could clearly cause some damage.
When I saw the Katana video the first thing I thought was "I wonder what Shad and them would think about this"
Was actually wondering when someone would make a good response video, i was positively surprised to see that this channel did it.
I was kind of hoping you would show some B-roll of it hitting pool noodles and water bottles just to demonstrate how it wouldn't cut.
Funny fact I didnt have any pool noodles left which is why i used the thin sheet of foam But i do agree they would of also made the point Clearer
@@ScreenTested maybe for your short?
Remember Positive Vibes here 👍🏼

If your into that kinda thing...

By saying this u seem to have fear of criticism and lack confidence of your viewers being respectful
@@emphorepolpatinedasenate Yeah, no way viewers on youtube would ever take things too far and start harassing people for no reason. That's never happened before...
I read it as Milk Shake in the video title
I feel like it should be possible to make at least a limited use transparent blade by using the same techniques as laminated glass and ballistic plastics. I may have to work on the theory behind this.
There is an actual layered/laminate polycarbonate product out there. Used to actually make it for a job. So definitely worth thinking about in a limited use purpose.
I saw that video yesterday and had much the same responses you did.
One thing he did wrong was in pursuit of the aesthetic part of the project, invisibility. He first made a blade-like object with a more swordlike profile including an actual edge. However it of course acted like a long skinny prism, visibly distorting the view of whatever was behind it, so he scrapped it without testing it. Then he made the one we saw with a more axe-like profile.
In my opinion the one he discarded would have been a much better cutter. Never as good as steel because of its molecular structure, it would never take or hold as fine an edge as even say copper. Still, I think it could have handled water bottles and pool noodles. Tatami, not so much.
I think you're the one who's got it wrong. The primary purpose was to make an "invisible" sword, not to make the perfect sword. On that basis, he was incredibly successful considering the limitations of the material and that he did it on his own.
at first he had rather nice and long bevel that meaby would act as some kind of a sword but then he remade the sword with much smaller bevel and made bonk stick
but he said he would revisit that project
I found your channel thru Shadiversity. Your videos are awesome. So glad I subbed. Thanks for all the hard work to b you and your team.
Oh yea new Tyranth video!!! 🦖🦖 RaAawrRRrr
Both you and Mike need more subs (well Mike has a head start..), and you both earned one from me. Fun videos guys!
"That thing was too big to be called a sword. Too big, too thick, too heavy, and too rough, it was more like a large slab of polycarbonate."
I saw the original video, I totally thought Shad was going to make a reaction video. Tyranth doing it is a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Divide and conquer.
Is tyranth still involved with shadiversity?
@@Alex-ii5pm Yes, I believe so? He was in the Shadiversity Shogun video that came out a day ago. His time with KnightsWatch might be over now that Oz is back, which I think is a good thing for Tyranth, hopefully it will free him up to do the content he enjoys instead of doing the anti-woke stuff that knightswatch turned into.
@@Alex-ii5pm yeah, he's still there....
Shad's video would've been 40 minutes of explaining why plastic doesn't cut well and doesn't make a good sword material. Tbh 14 minutes of that is already too much 😂
I really want to see a Shadiversity style breakdown of an invisible blade. Hand wave how it is invisible, it can be magic, but how would that effect use and difficulty to fight with and against.
fate/stay night excalibur
@@jonathanbell6456 you're pronouncing it wrong.
Shad seemingly only care about if a movie is "woke" or not now and about making ai "art". His downfall was catastrophic.
Light and Love coach, light and love
A smallsword or thrust-only rapier would be interesting. Just leave it as a square section. Almost invisible and probably still deadly
For some reason CZcams hasn’t sent me your videos in awhile I’m going to have to binge watch 4 episodes now 😂
I would be interested to see your approach to the initial challenge of the video, which is making a clear ("invisible") katana. Is there any material that could work somewhat or is it just a fool's errand?
i. I actually enjoyed that lol. Thanks for the breakdown
I would have been interested to see how edge of that polycarbonate "blade" would hold up against another polycarbonate "blade" rather than that metal one. Since the metal's hardness, toughness, and sharpness made it fairly obvious it would cause the polycarbonate to fail like that. But nice informative video overall!
When I see the video pieces of his "katana", it actually looks more like a big, transparent machete. Love to see you make stuff. Musical greetings from Belgium, Gunther (singer and lyrics writer of Gabriel Scar)
I was bombarded by the "invisible katana" thumbnail, so eventually I caved and watched it just earlier. Funny enough, I saw your video about it recommended under it. 😂
As soon as I saw the original video, I wanted you to do this. His "sword" is more like an axe. It definitely smashed far more than it cut.
6:15 ngl, when I heard you say stick, I thought you were summoning Shad to rant about the benefits of a tapered stick.
I appreciate the original video and yours as well. I never would have guessed there would be two mad lads who would make any type of "blade" out of polycarbonate. Another cool build regardless 👍👍
You ever tried using a plastic knife to cut your food with, terrible why even make that.
My question about ceramic knives
@@Maninawig Ceramic knives are the best way to get shards of ceramic in your food (for those who don't know how to handle kitchen knives very well).
I suppose you could make a thin, single use blade like those silly glass swords in D&D. Might cut better :).
I don't think he actually cut anything. He didn't draw at all, just chopped. But I doubt it would've made much difference.
When I watched you cutting into fruit, it made me think of every single time I've fought an archer in Skyrim when they switched to their melee weapon. 😅
A very good review and analysis of the "clear katana."😂 if there is one person I want to see make and test a video game weapon it would be him. Bring in the metal gear rising reviews I need a murasama review.
never thought id see a video like this here. im interested to see this.
He did a surprisingly good chain/cable whip that was able to achieve a sonic crack.
My prediction about the lightsaber blade against an actual sharpen blade is that the lightsaber blade will get demolished
where did you do this videos testing it was such a pretty little yard area
Seen the original video in my recommendations, but decided not to watch it. I guess I'll watch this one.
If this was Shads reaction video it would be 140 Mins instead of 14 😆
Nice video, i had some similar thoughts. Though Mike Shake did say in the comments he may revisit the v1 version since that was more sword like and less like a baseball bat with a bevel. Also just for curiosity, what do you think you would use to make an "Invisible swaord"?
You guys should check out Kentucky Ballistics he tried some medieval weapons on his last video with slow motion, it would be cool to get a video reaction from you guys about it.
Awesome video Tyranth hope I got your name right.
This makes me wonder. In similar fashion to the titan sword project, could the polycarbonate work as a blade if composited with other materials?
The thing I don't like on fruit cutting is that it's highly subject to the ripeness of the fruit. Ripe fruit is softer and easier to cut through. It's fun to watch, but not a really good way to judge how sharp the blade is.
You should do a cut test with a bokken as a control.
He did however create a working chain whip.
@6:01 I watched that vid of see-thru 'katana'. given the goal he set it was quite fun. He does address, however, that the size of his sword had to be bigger than the average katana due to lighter materials to compensate on mass.
New video!!! Depression cure! Thank you 🙏
You guys hitting those swords together with no face or eye protection made me cringe so hard 😭
You should purchase some diamond dust (or sapphire dust) heat the edge and use aenemies. Embed the diamond dust into the edge. Now you got yourself a self sharpening dual hardness cutting tool. Just like endmills. It's also more ...katana-esque?
do you guys actually have any vids on those toy lightsabers? how much impact CAN they take?
11:40
Transparent assassin "short swords" definitely no daggers here!
Mega Cool Awesome Greetings Pirmin To You From Switzerland 🇨🇭 To Australia 🇦🇺
Mike ultimately went with a giant "plastic" cleaver for the sake of transparency (in more ways than one).
I now truly wonder if a transpersnt mace would be way more effective cause it seems the polycarbonate cant hold a real edge.
I mean we only saw the blade break at the handle, i wonder if it will break when there is more mass at the end... And with so much flexibility you can probably reduce the stress on your hand from vibrations
For some reason.. i REALLY want you to make a gauntlet.. out of the metal shell of a PC.
I made a helmet.. and it was interesting to say the least.
I saw the Mike's video and I got a lot of fun.
Yeah we all know it's technically not a sword, but it pretended to resemble one, and tye most important thing was to be "kind of"invisible and " kind of" cutting without breaking in the process 😅.
Maybe if someone wants a more sword version it would put metal at the edge, anyway it would never be so functional like a real combat sword, but it would be mostly translucent! and that's big part of fun x-).
Whats the best sword? Rapier?
SSJ 4 Goku Statue in the backround is amazing Best Design in Dragon Ball series.
💪
Ss4 goku = best design
lol yeah makes sense that it wouldn't be ideal. Would be interesting to see a series diving into various non-metal swords to see what might be viable.
When I sold polycarbonate I got permission from my boss and my local gun range to shoot 10mm and 12mm sheets with various pistols. Mixed results.
Bear in mind polycarbonate can be vary in manufacture design.
Never heard of Mike Shake, I will take a look though.
Honestly, the polycarb sword wasn't a very good sword, it never could be. But it WAS at least an *amusing* sword to see made. Really more of a prop piece than a weapon. Maybe something for cosplay. But otherwise just a fun talk piece, probably fun to make, and neat to see someone try.
A chisel grind might give poly-carbonate the best chance of cutting.
@8:00 yeah, I predict a proper edge would just shatter.
Would be awesome if you could make a katana out of see through metal
To be fair you could put a incredible fine edge on a polycarbonate blade it would last maybe one or two cuts. As far as you sword Vs tube my guess is it might survive one maybe 2 blows before the tube will snap at the point of first impact pretty much like your knife
Good video.
Might i add that he did made a proper beveled polycarbonate sword in his video that could probably work for the most part of the actual test but he never really tested it instead he goes for the paddle like sword that is akin to a bokuto sword. Hope this comment gets noticed!
I rather liked the first blade he made, with proper edge geometry. It was silly that he discarded it for not being "invisible". I wanted to see how it would cut. The one he tested was just a whacking stick with a beveled edge.
Mike Shake still did a good job on his video, and I feel that his first blade with the longer bevel would not have survived the testing he did with the shorter bevel one...
Wondering if it would have yielded a better result if he had made the polycarbonate sword as a broadsword with a diamond cross section instead of a katana...
in the video he did initially start with a much sharper and more katana like edge profile the reason he didnt stick with that is the way it refracted the light making it not really invisible
had he stuck with the original I'm sure it would have been far better than what he ended up with
he acknowledged it when he redid the blade
the reason he didnt stick with the original was the concept of the video
infact in the comments of his video back when it came out i said he should use the original in a video as a followup test.
Plexiglass/polycarbonate knives work best as thrusting weapons. That how people in prison tend to use it.
Would nightwings electric eskrima sticks that click into a bow staff be functional and plausible if you used cattle prongs? It would be effective and safe since the volts would be at the tip. Random thoughts..
They would just need a solid body cover that has no conductive material that would harm the user and a quick release click mechanism to connect them.
Tyranth.
The handsome Australian (maybe) version of Mario Moreno Cantinflas. ❤
I wonder if you could make a sword from artificial sapphire. Probably too brittle.
Wheres that boken from?
Ok, keeping it not negative, simply objective... IT'S STUPID!!! :P and as for those bricks, they are fairly common here in Germany and I played with and broke those by throwing them on the concrete floor when I was only 5 or 6 years old, they are not meant to be hit and it's just another case of "yeah if you take a big enough stick you can of course break through this"
So... What would be a better material or even a good material for a transparent sword?
Glass would be best, even if it shatters before you cut them, the opponent now has tiny razor sharp glass fragments flying towards them.
Analysis: local hardware store
Lives in Australia, therefore most likely Bunnings.
Conclusion: Hope you enjoyed your snag.
I saw the original video and knew it would only be a mater of time. You guys could never resist bait like this.
Love you platonicaly big guy!
2b fair with Mike, he did try making it wedge like a normal sword would, but his video is called i made a transparent katana, and when a transparent medium has different width you get the frenel that distort whats behind and his video isnt i made a frenel lens katana, so he had to scrap it and make the final one that is same witdh all the way ecept a very narrow but sharp part
I can honestly say... I have no idea who the other guy is. I found you through Shad, and subbed once I saw you had your own channel and it was interesting. Not gonna bother with the other guy just from the basics I saw in this video. Seems too click bait-y for me. I get small tricks to chase the algorithm, but the tests shown are/were self-evidently moronic given the clips from his video show the impacts tearing or shearing rather than actually slicing or chopping the material.
Kinda like I wouldn't have bothered with Veritasium if the first video from him I saw was the katana video. It was painful to watch when it popped up in my sub, but entertainment to watch being ripped apart on Shadiversity.
he wanted to preserve the invisibility aspect and made the angle of the blade too obtuse harming its cutting capacity
1:43 if those weebs could listen to arguments, they would be sad
Honestly a bastard sword would be best for this material im thinking. wont be as clear unless you polish it.. but it will actually cut/slice. maybe stab once or twice
They sell these knives as child safe knives
4:30 The exact context here doesn't matter much, though your wording made me wonder: To my understanding, sharpness and edge angle are commonly misunderstood. You can make something with a 90 degree edge angle razor sharp. You can make a piece of wood razor sharp. It doesn't mean they'll either cut well, or hold that sharp edge. People say things like "X swords/blade type is very sharp", when what they really mean is likely more like "X swords/blade type has blade geometry that lowers resistance in the cut". Do you agree or disagree with that? I think a lot of the time "fine" should be put in the place of "sharp" when you're talking about edge angle
I am surprised at Tyranth's potty mouth.
can it cut a pizza?
Thats a pretty expensive butter knife
The argument you have to throw it away - is wrong, it's no different to an arrow that you put time into making. An arrow goes much further so you're more likely to recover a glaive and it's more likely to be reusable. What he's talking about is ammunition, numbers...
Your montage needs AI chinglish 'this invisibur sword was banned by big knives until popular outcry brought it back. Dr Tyranth Discovered a secret formula to get the properties of steel in clear blade, now he wants to share it with the world. Thousands are already sold, so get yours now'
Something something Mohs Hardness Scale something something..
Assassin weapons
I'm not entirely sure what the point of discussions like this, tbh. I may be wrong here, I've only seen you in two videos, but I find videos like this to be very much in the HEMA realm of discussions. I don't understand what the point is. I checked the video you're responding to seems to be one of those channels that just do a bunch of dumb stuff for fun or curiosity. Not sure what the point is about pointing out that his plastic "katana" obviously isn't a sword at all, and would not be suitable as a sword for real. I just don't get it.
After watching the awesome video wether it's plastic polycarbonate metal I really wouldn't want Tyranth hitting me. Nope I'll pass fella has a mean swing.
so just usea kitchen knife over anything made of that
👍
All the negativity towards Mike's efforts is unwarranted. People have fixated on the wrong things, and taken things far too seriously. Mike set out to create an "invisible" sword, roughly the shape of a Katana, and in that he did an exceptionally good job. The limitations of the material he used were made apparent in his video, as were the compromises he made and the techniques he used. One man, with a limited budget, sat in his workshop and made it, and the end result was impressive. If he wanted to make a strong, practical sword, he would have just used steel... but then I've never seen transparent steel.
First off I said multiple time this is not a negative video it is an educational one as I enjoy his content , Secondly he himself has acknowledged that he thinks he can do better and will do a follow up as this one was lacking and lastly getting millions of views on every one of your videos means you don’t have a “limited budget”
2nd best sword? Not even close.
