I went looking for his original post and could not find it. I am guessing I am not the only one that watched the you add clay mixture to the "wrong side" of the blade and was mystified. But then it makes sense if you are using a modern steel it wouldn't be that big of a deal except for softening the cutting edge. I missed what type of steel you were using for this or if it was even mentioned. It is a good build, I like you handle work.

@@RickD5468 The steel seems to be a big ol truck spring that has been plasma cut lengthwise. If that's true, the clay definitely left the edge too soft. In fact, you shouldn't use clay on 5160 or equivalent because it's not gonna show a hamon anyway and the best way is to heat treat it uniformly.

It's because people watch too many movies. They are expecting you to have made a sword from "scratch" but they have just watched videos on how katanas are made.

I appreciate the look. It is more of a tanto than a wakizashi, also the edge is going to be soft as butter, the clay goes on the spine of the knife

the clay hardening also caught my attention and I just looked for an according comment

nice work, however the harder part should be on the edge, also on opposite side

I have a wakizashi certified as an “important cultural property” by the Nihon Bijutsu Token Hozon Kyokai (Japanese government authorized historic blade preservation association). I have a tanto kaiken forged by Kanetsugu of Mino, Kaneuji Branch, ca. 1368. These, and a katana, are ancestral weapons given to me by my grandfather because I studied kenjutsu as he asked me. Various of my ancestors fought in the Jinshin no Ran, 672 A.D., and the Gempei War, (1180-85). On these bases I am compelled to disagree with your calling your blade a wakizashi. It is too short. By the way, the bushi (warriors) from the fifteenth century onward had entirely different swords for battle and “civilian” use. Katana and wakizashi were for non-battlefield wear.

Thank you for the useful information, as I find out Wakizashi have blades that are about 30 to 60 cm long, wakizashi that are roughly the same length as a katana are called o-wakizashi and those that are close in length to a "tantō" are called ko-wakizashi. Wakizashi worn with a katana is an official sign that the wearer is a samurai or a swordsman of feudal Japan.

That’s amazing well done. I would buy that.

I don’t understand why make the edge softer than the spine ?

The softer shell around the harder edge will allow the sharp edge of the blade to hold an edge really well while the softer outside of the blade will allow some flex in the sword to prevent it from snapping or shattering. This is known as a differential heat treat and is also used in high end chef knives, tantos, katana etc.

@colinotoole3978

The clay coating was backwards. Clay is used to maintain ductility and toughness in the spine. The edge won't transition properly if it cools slowly. If this did harden, then it was likely not as good as it could be.

you put the clay on the cutting edge not the spine...the thing with japaneese blades is they coat the smun and and uper half of the straif blade they made, the differential hardening keeps the spine more soft then the edge it also causes the intentional sabering of the blade which gives the weapon it signiture curve. yours wont really hold a edge as well cause the edge in now the softer side.

The spine is traditionally soft as it is lower carbon. The cutting edge is a taco san mai. You put the clay on the cutting edge because it is thinner and will over heat otherwise.

And the differential heating is how they curve the blades with low carbon steel on the spine.

Traditional Japanese standards. Uses grinder to cut tang, not forged. Used sandpaper instead of drawknife. Uses piece of crap steel and not the black sand from Japan. Not a San Mai blade. Does not fold and stack steel even once. Uses clay and has no idea why, forgets to use straw ash, rice paper, clay slurry. Last but not least, your tamahagane is questionable to say the least. Forge On!!!

Everything you're doing is bad , I want you to know this - first of all , it's so short it's a Tanto knife , not a Wakazashi , and the clay goes on the spine , not the edge ; you've made the spine brittle and the edge soft - also , your title says , "the sword that ends the pain of losers" - I presume you are referring to those noble Samurai who committed Sepuku with honor ; to call them , "losers" is not only disrespectful , but stupid
