Making a Japanese Inspired Unagi Knife

Ойын-сауық

I have never owned a Japanese style knife and so I have decided to make my own. This is my first time making a knife and it was great fun.

    Your lack of experience is most folks mastery of the arts. Mr. Tuchman, you are the master of anything you touch. You do not give yourself the credit deserved you. You always inspire and humble. Every time I watch one of your videos I want to put my power tools away and pick up my hand tools and try to create with my hands what I normally would otherwise. Thanks from a 62 year old woodworker.

    Ok, this guy really "doesn't" know what he is doing. He's just going for it! I love it! Talent, he has more talent in his pinkie than I do my whole body. And this is just some of what, makes his videos binge worthy. I've been working with metal for upwards of 35 years fabricating mill equipment, structural etc. Just got seriously into tinkering with metal art. I've got tons of tools and make some pretty cool stuff. Raw Talent, I just need to sit down because, I'm in awe.

    The best thing about this man is that he's working in a small room, with no power tools. Just his talent, hard work, and creativity. Not all of us can afford a wide workshop. But here is a great sample - even in a limited space one can produce a masterpiece. Thank you, Uri, for your inspiration!

    Also you quench the blade edge first, not tip first. I took a blade-smithing course a while back (full forging, not stock removal) and this was one of the points the instructor was very vocal about.

    k dont use ferric, its very expensive and pretty dangerous, very strong instant coffee will do. also edge/ tup first doesnt matter all that much, get the blade hot enough, quench , keep it moving. get it down to about 1 mm thick on the edge and finish it after temper you will have way more consistency in the edge that way. 2nd polishing will also show a hamon. 3rd well done

    Use a product called “Satanite” and apply it like a clay pre quench. Also, ferric chloride is dirt cheap and quite safe. Search for more info.

  • @John-lx8iu

    4 жыл бұрын

    Ferric chloride is the go-to for most bladesmiths but any etching method should reveal the differential hardening if it actually worked. I have seen a lot of good results with instant coffee or even a combination of methods. Also, the reason some insist on edge-first quenching is you want an even quench across the length of the edge or you risk uneven hardness and the increased possibility for warping on longer blades. The main thing is to get the entire surface you want hardened to touch the water/oil at the same time. If your container is not long enough to put it in edge wise, you just have to plunge it in as quick as possible and you want to move it around to get the water/oil to move across the surface rather than just having the heated liquid stay right next to the steel. This also brings me to my final point - some steels harden better with water while others harden better with oil. I'm not familiar enough to tell you one way or the other on the particular steel you are using but it is possible you may get better results using water. You can always do some experimentation with the off cuts to see what works best (just heat it with a torch, dunk it, and test it).
