    It’s crazy to think that most of these old smithing techniques cannot be used on modern steel because it’s *too pure* and doesn’t have the natural “contaminants” like silicon and phosphorus that make this type of ironwork possible - and even give it a degree of corrosion resistance.

  • @karukurokami

    As a practicing blacksmith, I feel compelled to mention that this is not at all true. Every technique used in this video is applicable to modern steel as well as they rely on properties inherent to iron and steel as a whole. Pattern welding/damascus is in fact still done exactly this way, by stacking different grades of steel and forge welding them together. Modern steel also isn't "too pure", it is simply much more consistent. Manufacturers can closely control which impurities are present in steel and how much of it, and many are readily added to some grades if steel to improve its qualities like toughness, corrosion resistance, and hardenability. The main change from the time of this film to now is that the production and use of wrought iron has generally stopped, as it was replaced by much more cost effective Mild Steel. Wrought iron had some unique qualities including extraordinary corrosion resistance compared to mass produced steel, but this was largely a result of how it was made (which involved a laborious and very expensive process compared to steel). At any rate, all the metal used for these gun barrels was likely already sonewhat modern steel by that time, as wrought iron is a much worse material for this application.

    Wrote about doing a similar process in a fictional context. Some thoughts: 1) the reason twisting, etc is done is that the original material was *carburized Wrought Iron,* which usually has a lot of slag and other impurities. The twisting, piling, etc. helps get them out of the metal. 2) this also achieves better homogeneity, *if it is done with sufficient care.*
