This my neighbors souvenir katana he got while living in Japan in the 70’s. The value of the restoration is for his memory. The katana is a replica.

この短剣は皇紀２６００年（昭和１５年）を記念して作られたもので、当時市販されていた模造刀です。ちなみに神箏は中国製の包丁ですね。

In the 1970's my neighbors father had one of these, he was a marine during War 2, and fought at Iwo Jima, where he picked it up. This is a mass produced sword that was given to NCO's as a symbol of their authority.

この刀は、明らかに玩具ですね。刀身に刃付けもされていないようですし、形を刀に似せただけの模造品、言ってしまえば鉄の棒です。 この刀の柄は金属製のようですが、本物の日本刀の柄は、通常は木製で皮や布、紐などを巻き付けて作られます。 柄の中に入り接続される部分、茎(nakago)といいますが、この部分も細すぎます。これでは打ち合った際に簡単に折れてしまうでしょう。 本来は、この部分に穴を開け、同じ様に柄に開けた穴に目釘(mekugi)という主に竹製の棒を差し込み固定します。 それは別としまして、良い包丁をお持ちですね、professionalの料理人が使う高級品とお見受けします。大切にしてください。

That handle really did not want to come off did it!? Great work in the end though 👏

@@shoken4421 I honestly feel embarrassed for you. You sound like such a sword poser. Seriously, go back and read everything you said out loud. That is some embarrassing shit. "I own two Katanas and two practice ones so that makes me an expert! And since you don't buy into the mysticism of the katana and it's meaning, you don't know anything" First off, bold assumption to make of anyone especially off of two comments. Second, I know full well about the meaning thing. Problem is: It's mostly bullshit. *To me at least.* It's fully locked into the culture of the blade. The deification of katanas is pretty fucking foreign to anyone that's not from Japan or people who've heavily invested into aspects of it's culture as you seem to have. So tone down the condscending BS, stop assuming people aren't as invested as you in something are ignorant and finally, don't declare "End of discussion" on a public forum. It's basically declaring that you can't back your shit up so you're trying to shut discussion down before people question your BS. and it practically begs for a challenge from contrarians like me.

That was some serious glue.

I’m waiting for my M&M’s to show up from Amazon.

I think he forgot to tell us he uses a Kamikoto knife.

Feels more like a clean up job then a actual restoration because some pieces are missing like the seppa's and habaki but hey good job anyway

Why did you not fix the dents on the scabbard?

Next time I would try toluene instead of acetone. Probably leave it for a few days as well.

Damn lemons and damn chef's knives...

Dude, you are fucking awesome for cutting up those lemons and them actually using them for something useful instead of just throwing them out.

Just here to see how Haganezuka would restore Tanjiro's sword. XD

Cool.

With all of the glue used on that sword I'm surprised there was any left for the rest of us.

Whatever historical value this sword may have had is gone.

Just a thought for the future: skip the lemons/baking soda and just use Brasso. Won't be as visually compelling, granted, but more efficient. Good vid.

Almost had Old man Yamamoto feel from bleach before the restore when he uses his Bankai.

Literally the worse restoration I've seen and I love watching these types of videos. I have none of the grinders and sanders used and still could have gotten the handle off and made it look better

Can you explain why you neutralized the acid in the lemon juice before you used it to clean the brass? I would have used the baking soda after I cleaned it. That way the acid would clean the brass faster.

I wouldn't have thought it'd be properly constructed under that infernal gluestick.i was expecting you to cut through and find it was a one piece

You’ve not restored anything. You’ve just cleaned it

Great,I just wouldn’t have sharpened it~ that rat tail tang puts it in the whirling helicopter of death category

Рукоять катаны крепится одним колком,а на рукояти лезвия имя мастера ,а это какаято хрень металолом.

Can soaking sword in white vinegar help to remove rust? I have 80-100 years old Rajput sword of my fore father it is rustic a little,,

This was good as much to do with a true forged Katanna as a pile of rocks has to do with a house.

What an absolute mess you made of that sword

You missed one: Habaki

Kamikoto knives are a scam by the way. They are made from 420J2 steel, which is the cheapest grade of stainless steel available. They do not hold an edge and need constant sharpening. They are worth about $10.

It a "Last ditch" Shingunto from the late stage WW2 where Japan was about to lose the war in 1945. Japan themselves disown these swords as "true katana" swords, maybe due to the association of WW2 and also were machine made swords

Judging from the CHEAP handle that sword is a display piece

How much glue should we use sir? Yes.

Класс 👍👍👍

あなたの言う通り、これは偽物です。 この刀はおそらく昭和刀のレプリカです、 本物の昭和刀は日本刀の代用品として第二次世界大戦中に作られた刀剣で、 1937年から1945年の約8年間生産されました。 職人が手間暇をかけて作る日本刀とは異なり、機械で制作されたのが最大のポイントです。 ステンレスの板を打ち抜いて磨き上げたような物であったり、機械のハンマーで叩き鍛えて成型する物であったりと、製法は様々。 そして昭和刀には錆びにくい加工がしてあるので、こんなに錆びるのはおかしいです。

This is definitely a Souvenir as it's stated in the title, the Real ones dont have serial numbers at 10:00 , plus if it was real he would not be able the straighten the metal without heating it 09:05, but it is pretty for a 20 USD Chinese made replica.

I think this is an advert for kitchen knives

I am almost certain your neighbor did not get this in Japan. That appears to be Chinese. Japan would not have allowed this type of sword at at all lol

Our friend here has tweaked the interest of 83,000+ crafty folk. Impressive.

That was an Imperial Japanese not commissioned officers sword. And you have virtually destroyed it. I would have used 2000 grit sandpaper to start with an attempt at poli. And I would not have drilled out the whatever was holding. It together will eventually come loose enough With a little heat on the handle since it was bronze or brass. Nine commissioned officers swords that survived the war are very rare these days

This type of sword was mass produced in the Second World War, the cape was made of metal just like that one.
