The traditional Making of a Samurai Sword
I recently saw a video on LiveLeak of a Katana being made, with modern tools. This is the way they would make them back in the day! A little lesson in what it really took to make one of these beauties!

@BunkerGearGal. Here you can see the finished swords. The first one that appears is the one being made in this documentary.

WAY better than the other Katana video. I learned a lot here, especially the clay differential cooling.

Ahhhh. That was refreshing after seeing the "katana" video. The skill and the art behind this is a higher universe of sword smithing. Really... it's so cool to me that If someone offered me a choice of a Corvette or a true Katana set, I think I'd take the Katana (built by real decedents/masters in the traditional guilds) ... I think. It's living history and the pinnacle of swords.
