Certainly not as hard as tempered steel but good bronze is significantly harder and tougher than mild steel and was plenty good enough for working wood. 3) even relatively pure copper (not bronze) can be work hardened and were used as knives and tools prior to the bronze age. The ancient Egyptians used both copper and bronze to make the enormous cross-cut saws that cut 20+ ton slabs of granite (with an abrasive).

The Copper Axe is the first axe the player will obtain, and is weaker than the Iron or Lead Axe. It has an alternate ore version, the Tin Axe, which is slightly stronger.The Copper Axe is now used to craft the Axe of Regrowth in 1.4.4.Newly created characters will spawn with this item in their third inventory slot. Like all axes, it is used to cut down trees, cacti and giant glowing mushrooms. Alternately, it can be purchased from the Merchant for 4.
You will be surprised at how hard you can get copper using a technique called cold hammering. Try it yourself take a piece of copper wire, and a hammer and use just below moderate force tap the copper while simultaneously rolling it while tapping on a hard surface, like a cinderblock or piece of concrete then try to bend the cold hammered copper compared to a normal piece. It’s roughly 10 to 15 times harder. Don’t ask me why just science
@@ghostoftheUchiha3250 a hatchet is made to cut wood, not stone, and bronze will do the job pretty nicely. Don't underestimate ancient metals, they will work fine, but you will have to maintain them regularly.
@@jeanladoire4141 no shit I don't think bronze would cut anything harder than lead🤣🤣! you have to sharpen a bronze hatchet after every use. do you know what happens when you sharpen something? You're removing material from the tool. it will last about 1/8 the time any normal hatches you buy from harbor freight would. have you ever noticed there aren't any hand-me-down bronze axes are hatchets that have been in use for generations? no. my father still has blacksmithing tools and an axe that has been in my family since the mid-1800s and they're in great condition with very little damage
I always have so many questions pop into my head when watching these, like, what goes into the crucibal with the metal? What kind of sand is that, that it keeps its form so well? Its a great skill to have thats for sure...
The sand is nothing special except for being packing sand patted down enough to pack in tightly, with gentle handling the sand will hold the imprint. Edited cos I goofed.🥴
@@rustyhowe3907 Its not wet sand, its casting sand, if it were wet the water would boil and explode into steam the second he put liquid bronze into the mold and ruin the casting.
Pro tip: Spend a little more time with the hard shaping abrasives before polishing with the rag wheel & compound. The finish will not be as wavy and you won’t telegraph the flaws.
You have to learn us the art of making a core, then you will avoid all drilling afterwards. Great that you show this so that we don't forget that we can make things ourselves without having to go to the store to buy everything. I worked for a year in an iron foundry when I was young.

This is really cool. Always was looking forward to crafting tools and building other materials outside. I was curious to know were you got this material from, but I just look for it ; it's all part of the fun.😊
The axe head was made from bronze, a combination of copper (the wires) and tin (the grey pellets). The ancient Greeks (and others) used it for armour, weapons and statues in the time before steel was invented, and they had no problems with murder and mayhem using bronze. Think of Troy!

What were those other metals? Depending on the alloy that may be considered norse gold, which has a hardness far beyond bronze, it's closer to a low carbon steel
What is that powder that you just sprinkled on the red plastic axe and is that red axe head is plastic? I don't know everything about casting but it was pretty fun to watch.
@@JustRememberWhoYoureWorkingFor the "salt" is borax to act as a flux, the "stone" is a lump of tin that mixes with the copper to make the alloy known as bronze
In the Edo era, Japanese beaches, provided sand for forging the Katanas. Iron ore in the sand and charcoal, created hard edges with flexibility. 11 folds would give you over 2,000 layers. A Japanese soldier, took his inherited blade to a heavy machine gun barrel, sword won.
Japan has quite low-quality iron ore. To be able to work around this, they refine the iron a LOT while forging it. Could an old (traditional steel, not imported) sword break a machine gun? Probably, especially if it had been firing and was very hot (hot steel is less strong and hard). But the sword would have been at least slightly damaged and would not have cut through the barrel
Any ancient warrior would be proud to own that.
