This is a true craftsman. He actually forged it to shape unlike virtually every other kiradashi build on KZread where it's pure stock removal.

There's no practical benefit to forging it as opposed to stock removal. The benefit of stock removal for this, on the other hand, is that you can get the exact same tool in a fraction of the time, for something this simple. There are times where forging makes sense, and can save time, but this isn't one of those times.

It doesn't matter how they do it if it has the same result

TÅ's videos can stand alone. I really think he has produced a video that compliments the work. The balance of the hammer blows, the quiet of the hand sanding and sharpening, speeding up the process in such a way as to not be silly. The concentration which permeates the work! Fascinating.

The love of learning and teaching is what made civilization =) It's kind of funny, but if i became the last person on this planet and i found a place like yours.. then im pretty confident i could make both an axe and a knife fairly easy. It wouldn't be the prettiest one and maybe it would break with time but still, i could make one as i've learned how to. No need to reinvent tempering! It's the same with other things i've learned here. I can build a hut out of mud and some twigs and then make pottery. I know how to weld and how to use a router, table saw, glue stuff, make dowels ...... etc etc ....... of course my hands need to learn it too, but there theory and understanding is there :) Wherever i look now i see so many possibilities. All the ways to solve problems. There's no wealth like the wealth of knowledge and insight! Great video as always! Lovely garden!
