Japanese culture values ​​accumulation, so I think it's good at making crafts like this, but on the other hand, I feel like it's vulnerable to new things like innovation. For example, even if a young company can do government work cheaper than a large company with the same quality, the government will choose a large company that is reliable and has a proven track record. Even if it increases the cost. I feel that there is less competition in Japan than in other Western countries. That's why there are so many dying black companies in Japan, and I think the presidents are mostly elderly people with dementia who only have a track record.　Yoshiro Mori is a good example of that.

In Japan, a craftsman who seeks money and not craftsmanship isn’t a craftsman. They can’t become craftsmen they die out from the Japanese society as we don’t approve such fakes. We hate everything fakes if you aren’t aware of this fact about Japan. It’s actually illegal to sell anything counterfeit also. The thing is money will just simply follow those who are truly excellent. And if you are a craftsman in Japan it’s considered taboo and will be looked down if you seek money before you are an excellent craftsman.

My favourite knife, and my daily driver for kitchen use is a Takamura Sumingashi 240mm WaGyuto. I don't want to say it's the best knife I've ever used, because it's a lie (I used to have Konosuke Sakai Honyaki wagyuto, was stolen) but it's my workhorse and I love it. They've obviously got quite popular since and it's hard to replace as it's more of a slicer these days than a chef knife, but glad to hear what a big name they've become!

Still remember purchasing a knife in Tokyo. After selecting the knife we we invited to sit down and drink tea. The knife was sharpened in front of us and then its sharpness demonstrated with the newsprint challenge. It was then wrapped in tissue paper and boxed before being ceremoniously handed to us. Very nice. Reverence to the workmanship.

Seriously speaking, those pieces of technology that are regarded replaceable by mass production mostly moved to China. The chemistry of steel in hand-made knives still looks somewhat irreplaceable with the mass-produced ones "yet", which is one factor for this particular sector having survived. The market size would have been much smaller if the craftsmanship were evaluated solely for its brand image. The similar goes for hand-made noodles of soba or udon in Japan. The molecular textures are known to be empirically different when you make noodles by hand. And there is pretty big market for such very expensive hand-made noodles in Japan.

I bought a knife like this in Kyoto. It was from a small family-owned shop on a quiet street, and the owner sharpened knives on a wheel at the front. The knives were all strikingly beautiful, with various shades of rippled steel and raw wooden handles; as much ornaments to behold as instruments to slice with. The owner helped me choose a knife (I know nothing) and I watched as he sharpened it at the front. Afterward, he sliced some paper to demonstrate-it glided through like a shark fin through still water. He asked me my name, then chiseled it in Japanese characters into the side of the blade before wrapping it carefully in a black box with manila paper. This was a couple of years ago; I still use the knife every single day. I don't sharpen it often enough, so its edge isn't what it was-it no longer effortlessly makes paper out of tomatoes-but I cherish my Japanese chef's knife, and it's something I'll keep for a very long time.

Just to be clear, a knife being sharp doesn't make it good, it's how long it retains it's edge. That's what so special about these knives. You could sharpen raw iron to the same degree, but these knives hold that edge so well that it's astonishing.

That's true, it's like how a few katana had a hardness of 75 rockwell. They keep their sharpness very well, and instead of breaking they bend, like explained in the video. And there is also a neat thing about antique Brittish sabers that is quite close to this level of knife-making: Their military swords were subjected to VERY extreme testing, from their elasticity to their edge retention. Some swords were such good springs that thy coud be bent nearly 90º and return to their original shape. If you're interested in history and sword videos, Scholagladiatoria has very good ones about katanas and other antique swords!

Yep you guys get it about the higher the Rockwell number, but with that it can also be more brittle and Chip more easily... Although, none of my Japanese Customs have ever chipped because I don't chop hard foods/objects with them... I do not own swords- I am only speaking about kitchen blades and modern folding knives. Japanese Chef knives are incredible in Damascus Etc, but they will NOT retain their razor edges as long as a supersteels like in M390 or 20cv, CTS-204P Maxamet, Vanax Superclean, Magnacut, S90/110v ( there are several other super-steels with crazy long edge retention also) .. so does Japanese Damascus have the longest Edge retention out there as the video implied? Heck no... Do they hold their edges longer than 90% of knives out there when properly sharpened to a razor edge? Yes! Although Edge retention is one of the main factors for me, I understand there are many other factors besides just Edge retention. Like the balance and craftsmanship that make me prefer my Japanese damascus customs over the M390 that actually holds the razor edge longer in the kitchen.. The Japanese dedicate their lives to their craft it's a very beautiful thing! Works of art and Dedication

That's only partly true, iron would be very very very difficult to sharpen to the same degree as high quality steel is, sharpness comes down to technique, and retaining an edge is very important, but its also a determining factor in how it cuts so the two in a way are quite intertwined. However, the sharpness and how well a blade cuts are down to the maker, and using good steel allows that easier.

eh. Shirogami sharpens fairly easily, it doesn't retain an edge like sintered steels. Hap40/SLD/etc absolutely dwarf mainbrand hitachi steels in terms of edge retention. Aogami & aogami super are both pretty hard and retain a nice edge through light abuse, they're also easy to sharpen with no carbides. Getting a knife with superior steel to your typical "japanese" steels for cheaper isn't extremely hard, just takes a tiny amount of research. Most people couldn't tell a properly treated VG10 from aogami anyways, much less some chinese 8Cr16MoV.

That's just nonsense you heard from "Shadveristy" but none of it is true, Iron does not have the properties fit to create the geometry which gives birth to a super sharp blade. Sharpness is relative, an axe is sharp for cutting wood, but is absolutely terrible at slicing or piercing cuts. Its the blade geometry, grind and finish that determines how a blade cuts, and how sharp it is for cutting said application.

me also...I have exam this week and I'm watching knifes story

The Japanese steelmaking method uses iron sand and charcoal as materials. Japanese iron sand has a low content of phosphorus and sulfur and contains vanadium. In ancient Japan, slag was called noro, and slag elimination work was called noro dashi or noro shibori. In tatara steelmaking, if the furnace is kept at 1300 ° C, iron sand will be in a semi-melted state, but only phosphorus, sulfur and impurities will be melted and discharged. So impurities have been removed from the tamahagane of the katana material. Vanadium makes steel more malleable and easier to roll, making it easier to fold. By folding, vanadium is finely dispersed and combined with carbon to form a fine metal structure, so katana has excellent hardness, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and toughness, and it becomes beautiful when sharpened. Hitting the steel with a hammer removes the carbon along with the sparks, reducing the carbon content to 0.7%, which is suitable for katana. The approximate amount of carbon can be determined by the shape of the spark. By folding, the katana steel is in a state where austenite and martensite, which have different hardness structures, are dispersed. When katana is sharpened with a Japanese sharpening stone, austenite is scraped off and martensite remains, so the blade becomes like a micro saw. That's why Japanese knives are pulled when cutting. China and Mongolia developed blast furnaces earlier than the West, but from around the 10th century, katana was imported from Japan and used by the military. There were swords like longswords and rapiers in China, but we developed Qijiadao, wodao, and miao dao based on katana. There are many records of katana in East Asia. Mao Yuanyi (1594-1640), a military scholar of the Ming dynasty in China, “katana is extremely robust and sharp, and the Chinese sword is inferior to katana.” Hitachi metals of Japan developed Yasugi Specialty Steel (yasugi hagane) around 1970 by analyzing and applying tatara steelmaking and tamahagane. Yasugi Steel has the same properties as katana, so it is hard, strong against impact, and hard to break. This special steel is used in various applications such as cutlery steel, materials for high-end kitchen knives, materials for razors, materials for automobile parts, automobile engine parts, and aircraft engine parts.

Gotta love the artisanship of the Japanese masters.
