forging a katana
« on: 28 April 2019, 01:20:53 »
(doesn't have anything to do with TQ)



I've never watched a 47 minute YouTube video before until this one.. still, it's long so i tried to break it down:

3:20 - preparing the metal
12:45 - forging the sword
24:55 - polishing the sword
31:00 - Japanese katana vs European broadsword
33:35 - modern samurai schools
39:45 - sword vs bow
42:02 - mass-produced inferior katanas

but it's good enough that i suggest watching the whole vid

too bad the ancient way of testing it is gone now: using it in battlefield

dem guns
i are TQ titans
i are many people
