The Ultimate Yanagiba Polishing
Vložit

- This video shows how one of our craftsman polishes a Honyaki Yanagiba (A non-mirror Konosuke) using the traditional Katana polishing method (Japanese Samurai Sword). It was first finished on a 1K synthetic Naniwa Chosera stone before moving oneto several natural stones then finger stones.
Beatifull work. I just started on the polishing game with naturals. Its very very cool and a patient game for sure.
beautiful polish and hamon
I love watching people know what they’re doing…do it well. Serious question; do you have to be careful using whetstone on the “reverse” non beveled back side? I thought good Yanigabi had subtle concave to release sliced fish (anything) and you wouldn’t want to polish that out? This is new and fascinating for me, an honest straightforward answer appreciated.
Wow what supreme skills you have sir. I have been restoring straight razors and recently have done one or two Deba and Yanagiba knives and can see from your videos I have so much to learn so please keep up this fantastic work. I use synthetics and natural Japanese stones. One question I would like to ask. Have you ever used a Belgian Coticule stone?
I recently sent one(traded) to my friend in Osaka city. I think he was quite pleasantly surprised. I use one for finishing straight razors. YT (Japanese Cuisine)
Why use nugui AND migaki-bera? I like the thought of just the polish without burnishing.
Do K&S Australia do Yanagiba polishing service??
I have a Honyaki Yanagiba, where can I get it to polish like that?
Hello nice video can u tell us pls the real stone names used and they'r progresion order cose i would very much like to purchese those stones ..... i have several honiaky knifes that i destroied the hamon on them and would verry much like to repair on my own ..i am a luxury restaurant chef and i like keeping my knifes razor sharp ...that's how i clouded the hamon ..and the highest grit stone i own is an naniwa superstone 12k
Sebenarnya gak perlu mau bikin gituin,bakal susah.. aku rekomendasi coba latihan buat Shinogi Line (1 bevel untuk slice horizontal,2 bevel untuk vertikal),Kireha(pakai 900 grit) & koba untuk memperhalus ketajaman(5k-6k-8k dan seterusnya)
Aku sudah coba shinogi line 2 bevel 17°-25°,kireha & kobe 15° i think .

Is that carbon steel
Wow men🙏😯
The real deal, just like Samurai Sword!
where can I buy these tiny polishing stones?
he is master sharpener spent his life to master sharpening knifes and swords, am sure you will cut your hand off if you tried to do this unless you really know what you are doing.
I have been sharpening my knives on whetstones for a few years now and I think I am ready to move on to higher grade knives. BTW, I found fingerstones on JNS www.japanesenaturalstones.com/finger-stones-and-naguras/ I wish James could bring them to his site some day
good for you, i don't have the skill level of doing this, if you happen to have the stones and sharpened your knife post a video
+Fadi Sarsak It definitely takes skill, but honestly it's really more patience than anything; and if you use finger stones you will inevitably cut yourself. This is a quick mirror polish on a Keijiro Doi Yanagiba - but this is a straight stone polish, no finger stones or polishing substrate which is why there's some satin 1k scratches at the heel where the bevel is flat, and Shapton Pro stones are so hard you don't get much slurry. instagram.com/p/BRhUgKtAXZx/
What is he doing and with what tool at 8:08?
polishing the side of the knife that doesnt touch the stone, to give it the mirror like finish
@@joelfolkman Thats was a sandpaper?What grit?
@@oo4320 Watching this again and I am thinking that maybe he had a special tool that I am not familiar with. Either that or possibly just sandpaper folded over a tool? I am not sure to be honest with you. Either way, results can be achieved with sandpaper. You will want wet sandpaper, and a really high grit. I would say 8k grit at the least for polishing. I usually use some really high grit paper to clean my carbon knives (6k to 20+k grit). Keep in mind I have higher end knives, but nothing over the $300ish price point. Also I don't really go for the mirror finish, my aim is usually to remove oxidation. The mirror finish does not last long enough for me to deem it worth the time. It does get the job done better than the sabitori "rust erasers" in my opinion. Generally speaking, the higher the grit, the higher the mirror finish. I know there are metal powders that can also be used to help facilitate the mirror finish.
super annoying music, but good video
Use stones people, don't get suckered into the Wicked-Edge or Edge-Pro, that's for people who are to lazy to learn how to freehand, plus way overpriced
stones are overpriced use brick....
@@Schizophrenic0 Your mother was overpriced you loser😁
Flatten them stones they say lmfao
the music in this video is just so wrong and so off the mark for what is going on in it, that I can't watch it. This kind of video demands a narrative, not crappy and annoying, shitty music background. Forgive my choice of words, but I just can't think of a better way of saying this. The video has something to say, but very few people truly understand the process of what's going on without a narrative.
Furthermore, there really isn't anything going on worth watching because it is repetitive, making it redundant and boring to watch. If the filmmaker wants us to learn how to sharpen one of these blades, then provide a narrative that explains the process in detail, but don't bore the viewer by making them watch the same thing over and over. Show the process and show the steps sequentially. Explain why they are done the way that the person sharpens the knife. Explain how it works step by step, finishing with the final result. That is what should happen, not this shit... I'm sorry, but I am just a bit pissed off because I'm seeing more and more videos similar to this, with shitty background music that destroys the rhythm of a story and distracts from it.
If you have to make a video with music, then make the music appropriate to the topic of the film... don't go make a nice film, only to destroy it by arbitrarily throwing in some random piece of shitty music that does nothing to enhance the film. Music should compliment the footage. Music should flow with the footage and lastly, music should only be used to augment the story of a film to keep the attention of a viewer, not drive them off... that is what happened in this film, and numerous other films and what ultimately stopped me... the shitty music. I have no need to watch this film anymore and won't finish watching it because of that shitty background music...
JW what's going on? Hmmmm rub knife on stone to sharpen me thinks, pretty self explanatory really
FuRthErMoRe.....
What’s that tool at 8:00? Does any one know?
I’m pretty sure it’s a ‘megaki bera’ also known as a burnishing knife.
wtf 居然没有comment
Wicked Edge .... Edge Pro ..... Lansky ... TSPROF Knife Sharpener russian product
Any sistem to sharpen a katana?
To sharpen a katana with a professional is very expensive...
Since a katana is a convex grind, a belt grinder with MX Micromesh belts is your best bet. If you want an economical option, try the Ken Onion work sharp with the blade grinder attachment, and 1x18" MX Micromesh belts from micro-surface
if you have a cheap sword, don't even bother wasting your time with it. if you have a true katana, I'm sure you would have enough money or the skill to sharpen it.
I have the Shapton glass stones, nothing comes close!
haha, thats a good one ^^
