Smelting Shibuichi Silver Alloy and Making the Habaki for my Wakizashi
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Mixing my own shibuichi to make the habaki for my wakizashi project. To obtain an alloy composed of 80% copper and 20% silver using 800 silver (80% silver and 20% copper), I used 75% pure copper and 25% 800 silver.

Идеальная работа! Великолепная подгонка деталей. Всегда с удовольствием наблюдаю за тем, как Вы , Мастер, работаете. И что примечательно, Ваше мастерство многогранно. Удачи Вам и здоровья.
Habaki is usually not made polished because it keeps the sword in its sheath due to friction, this will quickly scratch the polished copper, because it is soft. On the contrary, various oblique notches are often applied to habaki, which are called neko gaki. Overall great job, thanks for the video!

A way around this is to have part of the habaki with file marks and part polished.
If only the primary school videos in chemistry and physics were made with the pedagogy of your videos, then all students would be able to understand how to get top marks.

But that's not the goal. Education is bad on a purpose, the goal being to filter out only the most fit for this kind of soul crushing "learning". What they want are not creative and free minded people: they want EMPLOYEES , wage slaves if you prefer , automatons. If you're a calm automaton with a capacity to swallow and retain tons of "data" you'll be an engineer, if you are not you'll be any other kind of working class robot . They don't want you to happy and love to learn and aim to find a job you're passionate about: this is not how you run a society , you need your ant colony to be ordered, you need your drones, not individuals. I'm serious
Who would have thought a simple piece of metal at the hilt would be such a work of art unto itself.
Excellent handcraft
Good job mister well done
I had forgotten about that great cutting tool (acier-forge). Nice to see it again. Thanks BB.
shibuichi is probably my favourite nonferrous alloy, nice work mate!

I’ve seen other made from folding a thin piece of copper. Seen 3 pieces soldered together. But never a thick piece molded around and filed to such a profile like his. Really nice work! Hope you have cool weather Sam and keep up your great work too brother!!

Why is that?
0:45 I thought you were going to make a Damascus with this silver wire and some brass or copper wire. Maybe next time? What a fun project you made from recycled metals.
Good job 👍👍👍Thank you for sharing. Be safe 🇨🇦
The rear edge of the habaki should not be proud of the blade spine (mune) otherwise it will catch on the saya as you resheath the blade.
Been a long time since somebody made Habaki for my Wakizashi.
I read the various Japanese words in the title. Understood none, enjoyed the video. Learnt something new. Thank you.
Loving this series, your work is stellar as always!
That was absolutely beautiful! What a piece of art.
I have been looking forward to each video / part being made for this wakizashi series! excellent job brother!
This is the best looking hibachi I’ve ever seen!!! Well done 👍🏻
Beautiful work 👌🏻🍺🏴
Замечательная работа, прекрасный результат! Радует знание химических и физических характеристик материала. Браво! PS: Дружище, пресс-прокат приведи в порядок...

Нормально там всё с прокатом. Он похоже просто мыл его и плохо вытер. Прокатит ещё пару-тройку деталей и всё само отшлифуется.
Молодец Борода!!! Показал высокий класс!!! Действительно ювелирная работа👍👍👍
Lovely job , like the cool little smelter 😎👍🏻
Oh man that's beautiful! Love the color of that alloy too
Mais um belo trabalho de arte, Gader. Parabéns.
Que hermoso trabajo, digno de un maestro artesano, gracias por sus vídeos caballero.
What a beautiful alloy. Copper has always been a favorite of mine, colorwise. Really makes me want a ring or watchface in that metal combination. Fantastic work 👏
Beautiful work
were you able to fix the crack on the top right side, looks great though
Beautiful
Absolutely stunning!
Piece of art!
Wow that looks awesome!!!
Very good job 👍💪, the result is insane 🥰
This is the most awesome thing I ever seen 😊
Nice fit... looks excellent.
Lindo trabalho, cada vez se aprimorando mais; parabéns. Saudações do Brasil.
Absolutely beautiful
I've made rings out of this alloy, it holds up really nicely.👍
Absolutely perfect! 🤙
Just perfect 👍
Shi = four bu Ichi=1 formula = 4 parts to 1 copper to silver, Habaki should be then 'scratched' to have friction against the collar, and shibuichi is generally dipped in liver of sulphur or something similar to give it a nice grey/black/purple patina.......
Wonderful 👍
Complimenti, un lavoro fantastico!
Excelente trabajo ✨️
The plastic cup melting when pouring the metal 😮
I can already tell that this is going to be a beautiful sword once it's done.
beautiful habaki i love shibuichi
Amazing work making the habaki 🥳😎
Отличная работа!!!
Just beautiful
This is awesome work sir ❤
This project is going very well and I am looking forward to seeing the completion of this six stars brother
Impressive video.
Thats some great work
Well done!👍 Made with modern tools, not traditional, but a very fine piece!
Excellent habaki.
Perfect!
good restore👍👍
You do better by hand than a factory could have done it. Very nice work!!

Nonsense. CNC machines can definitely create a similar result.
Your forge is the best!!!
Damn that fitment!
You are doing a great job I'm enjoying watching I was wondering how that part would finish from the start turned out great 👍
Very nice indeed! XX
I'm 100% positive my thumb would have taken some of the blows when you were hammering on the habaki lol. Nice work!
That was absolutely 👍👍
Nice color
Super good ❤
Gader never disappoints!
so shiny 😍
Красава! Руки золотые!
I always wanted a Habaki but only for my Zakitumi Takayoma! Sore ga nakereba watashi wa ken no nai! 😎
Positivo, perfeito!
Jewelry!
Masterful
Очень красивая работа
Looks like this worked out well but your final ingot showed signs of porosity. I'd suggest two adjustments to your process when working with copper alloys as copper has the ability to absorb some 200% if it's weight in oxygen. Charcoal on top of your metal in the crucible and water cast the ingot instead of graphite mold. Just be sure to cast into sub boiling water as you don't want a flash explosion of molten metal. Cheers
Very nice,wouldn’t expect any less.just keep amazing us with your work.kudos 👍👍👍😎😎😎🗡🗡🗡
Brah, you are getting good.
Maestro 😎
Good project but the satisfactory was on another level
Complimenti, se diventato un maestro... nonostante sia un ingegnere 😂
Это конечно КРУТО, но серебро тратить на это жалко......🤗🤗🤗
How is that smelter, pros and cons?
凄い！！！
В начале видео подумал, что типа он всё видно будет эту пиздюльку? А в конце поймал себя на мысли, что ничего такая пиздюлька получилась))👍👍👍😂
The color is nice, but isn't there a way to make it more of a blackish silver?
Why didn't you ever clean out the slag each time???? Looks great and can't wait to see the finished Wakizashi!!! Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up Slava Ukraini!!!!!!!
No patina? Shibuichi is meant to be patinated by niiro. But even so, it looks beautiful.
Was that your rolling milll or was it just ones you were using?
I can watch this all through Ramadan
This was great to watch as always. What happens when you quench this material?

Since it is a non-ferrous metal mixture, it is usually the reverse of steel. quenching when it gets hot will anneal the metal after it has been work hardened!

Great job, but needs more work and attention to details. You should've focused more on the welding stage to yeild better final results!
