@@erzascarlet8549 you ruined it
get out
To be compleatly honest, I wasnt expecting much when I clicked onto this video. However, seeing how much work you put in, the time you took, and how you handled it all really impressed and surpirsed me. I'm not some blacksmith or anything, but I can tell some serious work went into this. I knew that this was going to be good when i saw how you cut the tops of all of the nails off, as it really showed that you didn't cut corners. Great job man.
Beautiful katana! Like others said, gorgeous tsuba. Love it. The damascus turned out great, and I love your mixture of modern and traditional touches to the creation of this sword! Plus the inclusion of you patting out the fire on your apron/pants was a funny touch. Solid editing too. Keep up the great work!
1:28 what kind of powder are they sprinkling on that block of steel?
@@Mr.Red90 Most likely borax or some other flux. It's used in welding for preventing oxidization in the metal, but also commonly in forging. You see it a lot in layering or varying metal builds such as Damascus patterns. Helps the material stay together and form properly.
@@koruleigh978 Opps! Nice! Thanks for you answers.

@@erickafabiolarodriguezgarc3990 ok?
mad respect to you for not cutting most corners and actually doing the work, unlike most other "forger" youtuber. Superb craftsmanship.
Amazing how such small things can be converted into something beautiful.
Amazing work there! The katana literally looks so cool!
Absolutely beautiful blade such a nice Damascus pattern I’ve always liked watching a blade be made for some reason lol
Just thought I would share something I learned from a documentary about samurai swords:
Apparently, the way they get the swords to bow is by having a different metal in the center that applys tension when the sword is cooled, like a bi-metallic thermometer. This internal spring tension makes the sword stronger.
This is true
It's not really a "different metal", it's the fact that the application of clay to the spine of the blade allows it to cool slower, therefore becoming longer. Yes, the edge has a higher carbon content, but the thermal expansion of different carburizations of the same base steel have negligible differences. The mechanical properties of the steel are different, but the spine of the blade will still harden if quenched without clay. Other than that, this is an excellent summary.
@@saitama2467 Ed be
@@azazeres2917 did you see the documentary in question?
It sounds like you have a better understanding of the process than my fallible memory. 😀
If that's all it takes to put steel under tension, I hope more blacksmithing enthusiasts utilize the technique.
The light bulb for me was putting steel under tension, it made me wonder if the same could be done in other fields, like construction.
@@azazeres2917 wait, is that a typo on your part? The rear of the blade, or "spine" is shorter, causing the distinctive bow and putting the sword under tension.
The most detailed Katana job i have ever seen.There seems to be some unnecessary stuff, but that's purely the heights of personal taste.Congrats Mr.
But, will it Keel?
The total build time was an excellent addition. Thank you for that.

That slow motion scene where the steel was on fire looked really cool. 🔥
It was very hot, not cool

Man, I was thinking when I first started watching that your method was unnecessarily labor heavy. But the finished product speaks for itself. Also I could never do this. Bravo! Very beautiful work!
you sir are a master at your craft, keep up the absolutely gorgeous work

nice
The value itself from a teacher that once was loyal enough to learn some piece of craftmanship..
One day it is you that will teach a newcomer the real deal .
What a great video , thanks for sharing i was happy every second of the vid .
Craftmanship is such a humble thing.
God bless him.
He’s called, “Faraway Forge” because he’s faraway from the amount of recognition this man needs. (I’m saying he’s underrated)

Gorgeous work and great editing!
You strike me as a very honest and truthful person. Certainly not one to have his pants on fire 😄Thanks for a really entertaining video taking us through the making of this beauty. Your skills are awesome.
I aspire to have the same level of dedication my craft as this man

+ baked sword🤑👍
I first saw your bamboo katana video and now I saw this one and I have to say your skill has vastly inproved and it is great to see how much you learned really good job ( would still like to see you testing the blade )
I’ve found those briquettes work surprisingly well. Not as well as coal, but for small things they work well!
Imagine if you will, a sword so tedious to make, that it gets reccomended to people on CZcams who have never seen one of your videos
They're too young to get the reference. Though, I enjoyed it. :)

Idk how this popped up on my “suggestions” but im glad it did. Idk why but watching stuff being made is a satisfying thing to watch. Very nice sword id buy it if i could😂😂
Dude you are CRAZY talented! What a work of art!
I love how you're using an oven to temper the metal with heat. Such a awesome idea
Ive watched a lot of these katana forging videos and this has got to be one of the best ive seen. Everthing completely from scratch with real forging and sword making techniques, and the pattern on the blade is amazing!

Bro that design you made on the guard was a piece of art man like holy cow, your katana was already beautiful, but that guard took it to a whole new level! AWESOME VIDEO AS ALWAY FF!
Thank you very much! Glad you like it :)
Agreed. I screenshot that thing. Absolutely beautiful
Though I’m still a kid, I’d like to do this kind of stuff, it seems amazing when you do it. Keep up the amazing content👍
Very good job man
Hii
love watching you work! Beautiful sword.
I like how you layered the steel. You've got awesome skills!
Over 3 Mil Views in under a month. I watched the entire thing, your craftsmanship and video editing skills are off the charts. Hats off to you sir!

That is one of the simplest, prettiest tsuba’s I’ve seen. Very very good
That is absolutely stunning. Beautiful craftsmanship.
That's a mighty fine looking sword there Faraway! Not bad at all for just a box of nails. Well done sir! Well done.
Watched it from start to finish. Watching the entire process was as great as the final product. Thanks on behalf of all of us for posting it. Mad skills!
Amazing to watch this with no background music, just simple and crisp real sound of every step. Great video experiencie for watchers. Thanks. Beautiful katana.
I was just complaining about this, nothing but a mic 1 ft away from every abrupt obnoxious noise, if you're shining shoes or drawing on paper sure, power equipment going from lows to highs is awful.
The amount of work that goes in to something like this is insane.
I have seen a lot of blade Smith do there thing making some serious Damascus blades. I rank you at the top of the list you're definitely in my top 2 of bladesmiths . 💯 Badass , love all your work 🦂🔥🔥🖖
Your videography and editing are wonderful. This is top-notch, a real pleasure to watch. Good job.
Words cant possibly describe how wonderful and breathtaking it was to watch every step of the way. You did an outstanding and remarkable job!
Yeah
Is that blade and sorcery
ووووووووو♥️♥️♥️🥰
You can't say "words can't describe" and then describe how the experience was and how it made you feel.
@@clement9782 I would argue that their statement may have applied to the degree of how breathtaking and wonderful they felt. There is also the possibility that they can’t describe how they felt specifically and that breathtaking and wonderful were the only 2 words close to what could possibly be their explanation. There is also the perfect argument that sometimes we ourselves cannot exactly describe a sensation with pin point accuracy and therefore rely on words that are closest to describing that sensation.
Edit: Using the words closest to describe a sensation do not necessarily mean that the words have already met the condition of describing a sensation perfectly.
Love it, dude! Amazing work.
Cool, the process is so mesmerizing!
Its more tedious to make a traditional katana, but im happy that you didnt stray too far from it. Some other blacksmiths tend to fix the handle on the hilt with a glue.
Amazing. Skill and craftsmanship, dedication and a beautiful product. I don't know you but damn I'm proud of you. Keep up the good work. Can you add on-screen notes explaining the step, like the reason you are doing certain things a certain way. Thanks.
Wow! Truly amazing piece and craftsmanship! Thanks for sharing!
i have respect for this man that clearly shows how much he went through by looking at his hands
I admire your sincere attitude toward your katana.
The way you make your swords is just like that, and your careful work is very pleasing to watch.
The patterns on the ground iron are characteristic of the meteorite katana used by Takeaki Enomoto, and have a drawing power that draws you in.
You mean Sokka
You know he's bad ass when you see respect and love like this. Dayum.
Incredible looking piece as always! Love seeing your work and the many ways you come up with for the Katana style blade. Looking forward to your next project!
Really fantastic sword. Great hand work.
This is a very satisfying video! The blade looks Gorgeous!
Holy crap, the crosspiece is just stunning, a few weeks ago I watched a video with engraving using tools similar to what you used, and this just revived my appreciation of the skill that I got from the other video by a hundredfold. Something about being able to make something so beautiful in such an interesting way just captured my mind and I love it. And just to make sure I get it across, I think the crosspiece you made is gorgeous
You executed every part of this like it was art.
can this sword cast lv3 lightning?
you could say he NAILED it
@MaxJaX we all agree
@@googlgfacef218 pfft, level 3?

Love your hydraulic shortcuts to folding the layers together...beautiful work of art in the end! How many years did it take you to reach these God-Level skills I wonder???
If you handed me this sword and told me it was made from nails I would struggle to believe it, absolutely incredible work!
14:30 "For every 1 time you see him swing the hammer, he has swung it 300 times more."
this dude maxed crafting stat in every single mmorpg game, surprising.
Awesome work!!! I would love to see you add a minor testing of it at the end just to catch it in action. Like maybe a fish slice or water jug slice or something!! Beautiful sword
I love how whenever he uses the welder it turns the studio to night
This was really cool. Youve got some skills man. I want to see someone make a knife from hardened steel mason nails and then test the knife.
The amount of patience it took to do that is beyond my brain's ability to process. 😐🙌🏻
😂😂😂
Dude you nailed this one
Dude…that’s insane. Very cool stuff man.
This is hands down the most beautiful katana I've ever seen. As you put it, you nailed it :D
That is not a Katana and if you think it is you need to go look up what makes a Katana a Katana and how they are actually made.
@@adamstroub1 most beautiful sword then. Not just Katana. Thanks for the info ;)
This is therapy to my soul
As well as mine fellow chad

Great video! For ease of initial setup, have you considered stacking in a canister before hand and weld them together, then cut the canister open and remove? Taking the time to weld them seems so tediousl
Damn you really *nailed* it with this one Forge
Wait, I didn’t know he was an artist too. Just breath taking.
finally its good to see someone sharpening with actual sharpening stones, gj making it
That hammer forging machine looks awesome
Whew, that is one sexy blade. You poured your heart and soul into that work of art. ❤
I'm amazed by people who can make weapons like swords or spears with only simple materials. Most importantly, it's iron or metal. 👍🏻
I watched the whole damn video and still am a little shocked he was able to do this with NAILS...
I could watch these videos all the time ...if I wasn't a chef I'd definitely be a blacksmith, such a cool job and I already don't mind the heat 😂 ..great work!
Love how he set himself on fire then went right back to work. Respect
Loved your work!❤
"Ohhh nice katana."
"Thanks"
"What metal is it made of?"
"Nails"
Believe it or not, a lot of traditional katanas are made from nails. If there is a shrine or some other historical site in japan that has either been condemned or needs repair/renovation, they will take the old nails out and use it to make a sword.
Nails are not a type of metal they are made of metal

bro u did awesome. some of the other people did it slightly different when making it but u did great
I swear to god when he goes to the hardware store,they probably have a bucket full of stuff ready fro him to make stuff out of
I remember making my first Katana. Wasnt the prettiest thing but it has pride of place in my workshop as my first big project.
Cool I'd love to make a katana but iv only been forging since 2018 and havnt really been forging alot threw those years so for now I will stick with just making knives iv never even made demascus and I don't have a anvil or a press/power hammer I built my forge out of a Propane tank it's a coal forge
This is the best katana forge i have been watched!
I have never seen something so amazing before in my life, to make something like that. I never could do something like that. I wish I could buy a sword that amazing.
Looking at the process forging, hammering, grinding with the combination of traditional and modern(most of the time), i can't imagine how hard to create katana back to the history of making it totally traditonal yet perfect and legend.

Damn. I just thought you were gonna make a bar and file it until it resembled a sword, not actually forge it. Props to you man!
Bruh imagine in the past they manually beating that metal holy shit that feels tiring
They still do that.
That's why blacksmiths were ripped!
Amazing. From the first concept (nails) through each subsequent step, the blade, guard and grip just got more refined and intense. The process never let down. Great build!

Imagine not having sharpening stones and you had to sharpen these a different way, that was always fun.
The fact you had the patience to cut all those damn nails is already impressive
