nice sword but testing on a galvanised tin garbage bin is not indicative of the blades cutting power. how about trying it out in a fluted milanese curaisse plate armor as this was what it would've been up against back in the day. if it cuts that type of armor like it does the bin then i will be most impressed. good work on the sword though.
katana cut it on half without stoping. armor was forged and hardened by hiting blacksmith hammer. More hits in steal its bcomes harder. Can have nothing compare to the armor.
@Liquidazot google is not a credible resource for how you determine the strength of armor. steel is strengthened through a process called tempering and normalization. in which the smith heats the steel to 1500degrees centigrade then quenches is in an oil, then heats it to 500 degrees centigrade then lets it cool in room temperature at its own rate.
you are thinking of folds, and that only works on small pieces of metal not full plates of armor. sorry Wikipedia lied to you.
@WaagooshTheRedFox Jesus Christ temperature is half way of hardening, do you understand more hits steal take its becomes more harder? I work with metals so dont teach me nerd internet kiddo. This can you can pearc with common nail grabed in hand. FLEXIBILITY have nothing to Strenght. Temperature only change flexibility not its durability.
@Liquidazot one more thing if you dont understand. GLASS is hard and is not flexibilie. but is fragile. The same counts steel. Fast decresing temperature make its hard but not increse its durability.
@Liquidazot i am an apprentice blacksmith, not some internet kiddo. on top of that, you are not speaking clearly. learn to speak clear concise english and maybe i would care about your opinion on anything.
on another note, i don't think you understand how strengthening steel or iron for that matter works. the more you hit something with a hammer the thinner it gets, thus making the work thin. hitting the steel cold can also cause fractures in its grain, weakening it further.
does anyone have a paypall? I want this sword, but have to wait another 4-6 months before I can place my order. are anyone willing to order 1 if I transfer the money + 15 dollars back to you when I can?
@ThorgalsWalhalla actually that is part of the point he does not have great skill and is abusing the blade but it takes the strain in the hands of someone ore skilled it can be more impressive he reviews these objects for a living he even sells them the man is showing the product is tough so people who want a tough blade for test cutting or actual swordplay(these come with a blunt blade suitable for western martial arts)
@KairosXdeath it's galvanized you are telling me you can tell the difference between pictures of 2 galvanized metals that is like being able to tell the difference between 2 types of painted wood just by looking at a picture
This guy is not using it properly. The maximum cut power point of that sword is about 5-6 cm lower then one he is using. If he had just hit the bucket with a lower segment on the blade the bucket would almost be split in half. You gotta know something to do tests. If it was a cheaper sword the tip would have broken off easily. That sword is strictly for mail piercing, metal plate cutting will damage it.
That's the point. He's testing it in a wide variety of ways to show that it can take a lot of punishment. Not to mention he would not have split the bucket in half. That's an overstatement. Not to mention this guy probably knows a whole lot more about this than you, as he's been doing this for years. Check his site out...
@guilemaster147 I intentionally exaggerated about the bucket being split in half. He probably knows a lot more, but Id like to see him apply that knowledge. All of his tests that I saw didn't include flexibility tests, blade bending tests (when you hit a piece of hardwood with the flat side of the blade to see if the blade would bend), or any hilt deforming tests (hitting the cross-guard, hitting with the pommel and twisting the blade from the handle). Its just a guy hitting random objects.
Oh ok, I did not notice that it was intentional, sorry about that. As for your concerns about it being an incomplete test, this is simply one video of a series of tests on this particular sword. I'm unable to provide links in youtube, but I'm sure you can find the page on his site easily enough. He has videos of flex testing and takes the sword apart and does a full test of it's abilities. This is simply the last section where he puts the blade to a brutal "torture test".
@TheZombie13777 Really, no it wouldn't. Katanas aren't these mystical blades that can cut through anything. Sure, they're good blades, when made properly, but they wouldn't cut through steel very effectively. As you can see, it takes a lot of force to cut through steel, which a katana does not generate. Katanas were fast, but not forceful. In an actual cutting test, a katana and a medieval broadsword cut about the same. Difference is in speed and force, inversely.
@leonhardtz5 As speed goes up, force goes down. As force goes up, speed goes down. Which, really, is the major factor in why katanas were so dominant. They were able to be drawn and slashed across a neck quickly. But against steel, they would slash through it.
Your first bit looked promising, then it all went to shit when you went on your nonsensical spiel about force and speed which demonstrated fail of epic proportions. Of course a katana doesn't fucking generate force, it's the user that does that. And no, a 'broadsword' (which is a bullshit fantasy term when used to refer to medieval arming swords) is not inherently more forceful in any sense.
Seriously, do some research before shooting your mouth off.
@TheZombie13777 No, an authentic Japanese kat would face even more problems. First off, it has a very hard and brittle edge. Smacking that against a steel drum = bad idea. Second, it's a much thicker sword. That means more material to push aside as it cuts. It should be obvious why that's a bad thing when you're trying to cut through a steel drum. It's not some fucking lightsaber analog, it's a goddamn sword and it will act as such. Stop subscribing to the mass media hype of this weapon.
@TheZombie13777 The swords in this test were both forged by the same smith.
/watch?v=5Hy_A9vjp_s#t=5m55s
As you can see, the katana doesn't come out looking too good. The longsword took less damage because it broke the target (no rebound) and some of the energy from the strike went into flexing the blade, but the results are still not pretty.
In short, a sword is a sword, they succumb to abuse regardless of quality. Katanas don't possess magical properties and aren't superlative uberweapons.
@halfassedfart 1. Ahh yes I've seen this video many times and there are flaws within the video.
While both swords were forged by the same smith, the Katana is poorly tempered resulting in a soft edge. This is apparent in both the hamon of the sword which looks no different from that of a $200 mass produced katana. Plus even an amateur knows the katana's main striking point is near the tip, not the middle...of course the result shouldn't surprise anyone.
@halfassedfart 2. Now even though I am a Katana fanboy, I do not expect the sword (katana) to cut clean through it as the Katana was not for contact-to-contact. To be quite honest I view the sword as more of a work of art and no so much as a battle piece. A samurai's main weapon was depending on the time period the Yari/Yumi or Yari/Arquebus, the sword was a sidearm rarely used. You are correct in what you say regarding the Katana possessing no magical properties it is merely a steel blade :).
hey retard you have no idea what steel is. that is tin you are cutting. if you hit a solid peice of steel there is a good chance the sword would break
@MrBodeci lol retard.Sheet metal is simply metal formed into thin and flat pieces. It is one of the fundamental forms used in metalworking, and can be cut and bent into a variety of different shapes. its still made of tin
@MDNSBS certainly not tin, maybe aluminium, but tin that thin, forget it. Tin is used as a coating in tin cans, but on itself is really weak. Thats why plates made of real tin are so thick (and you can still bend them easily.).
@slome815 PS: By the look of it its just galvanised steel in this case, because it's so thin it won't brake to sword, but will probably scratch and dull it. If it was a thick gas cilinder it would be another story.
I cringed every time he pulled the sword out of the can. All that scratching and he is destroying that beautiful blade. Do something with it that wont fuck it up so bad. Go kill a cat or something. Anything but this...no...cant watch anymore...too...horrible.
hah. if only you knew what "irony" meant. hes demonstrating swords that I am planning on getting. thats pretty productive if you ask me. on the other hand, youre sitting around on youtube talking crap about people. get a life you useless piece of shit.
He's the twat and for one you can barely spell and number two you have the awareness of a retard, see his profile name, its SwordBuyersGuide, take a stab (unintended pun) at what this is trying to show about this sword.
Btw. Katana likers/owners/users and western sword people shouldn't fight each other. both kind of swords are made for cutting through armor and flesh, and they both do it very well. but i'm a katana person
Very nice sword and for everyone saying die katana fanboys or whatever if you were sword fans you would see the katana the sword takes skills from you to use it and this blade you pretty much dont need much skill but i think the katana and this blade would show a good match
This is actually one of the best sword kinds out there. Even better than the katana..... since the katana is only good for slicing.... and the katana's strongest point is only at the middle.....so you have to time your attacks.... this one on the other hand, is good for slicing AND piercing..... and it's strength is all throughout the blade,... DIE katana fanboys
what I never understand is why people call it a tin trash can you can clearly see the galvanization ( i know that proves nothing) also why would anyone make one out of tin? that stuff is way too expensive to make things like that out of all in all this is some great sword abuse thanks for helping us make decisions about purchases
lol "punches through steel likes butter..." dumb ass thats a tin can! TIN!!!! element Sn lol and if its steel..... like you say.... its not even 1mm thick lol its lick sheet metal!
yup I have to agree, you should try on a brick or something like extra sword. It would be awesome which sword is going shattered first, then we can compare which sword can stay longer in parry hits.
It doesn't hurt if it can cut/pierce both. Most soldiers in medieval times would have worn chain mail as well as heavy clothing, which would be very hard to cut through, but possible to pierce with a sharp, needle-pointed sword. It would hardly penetrate a real shield though.
I agree with piwright43, I make chain out of galvanized tin, lighter even then steel, and my full shirt and coif by itself is 50 lbs. And yes, that is a galvanized TIN garbage can lid. don't believe? go to your local walmart or whatever store and see yourself, there is a reason some people call them garbage tins instead of cans.
Lmao all of you're debating is funny. Armor can way between 12pounds too 260 pounds depending on type and layers. It all depends how much mobility and defense you want.
260 pounds? Where did you get that idea? Full plate harnesses would weigh in at around 60-80 pounds. *Maybe* as heavy as 100 pounds (compensating low steel grades with thickness), but 260 pounds is 130 kgs, and NO armour was anywhere near that heavy.
That's like wearing me rofl. I know people in the Army with complete assault gear and ruck sacks AND medical equipment and still don't weigh nearly that much.
Ya would that be the Katana you bought at the flee market for 19.95 LMAO! Try and find a good Katana out there in Dark Sword Armory's price range ($300) USD GOOD LUCK BUDDY! There's nothing wrong with a well made medieval sword......
Ha, stupid katana fanboys would be crying if they ever see this video. It just goes to show that the katana is not the only sword that can cut like a razor.
Any sword can be sharp, but a katana is curved meaning less surface area is touching your target, making it more efficient. Also the katana is made with 2 grades of steel, making is stronger and sharper than any other kind of sword. Just saying that almost any kind of sword could do the same to that 1/8 inch aluminum.
That's alright, I just don't hate it when anime fanboys think that katanas can slice through tanks and boulders and still be sharp enough to shave with.
@Armacalypse LOL,an anime......IT MUST BE TRUE QUICKLY TELL ME ALL THE NAMES OF THE PEOPLE YOU HATE I'LL PUT EM IN MY DEATH NOTE :P.....man i love anime

dumb much? Everything can cut flesh. Even a sissor. If you want to test the strength of the weapon, you have to test it on something tougher.

yup I have to agree, you should try on a brick or something like extra sword. It would be awesome which sword is going shattered first, then we can compare which sword can stay longer in parry hits.

It doesn't hurt if it can cut/pierce both. Most soldiers in medieval times would have worn chain mail as well as heavy clothing, which would be very hard to cut through, but possible to pierce with a sharp, needle-pointed sword. It would hardly penetrate a real shield though.

I agree with piwright43, I make chain out of galvanized tin, lighter even then steel, and my full shirt and coif by itself is 50 lbs. And yes, that is a galvanized TIN garbage can lid. don't believe? go to your local walmart or whatever store and see yourself, there is a reason some people call them garbage tins instead of cans.

Lmao all of you're debating is funny. Armor can way between 12pounds too 260 pounds depending on type and layers. It all depends how much mobility and defense you want.
Thermond 2 years ago
260 pounds? Where did you get that idea? Full plate harnesses would weigh in at around 60-80 pounds. *Maybe* as heavy as 100 pounds (compensating low steel grades with thickness), but 260 pounds is 130 kgs, and NO armour was anywhere near that heavy.
Gilmaris 2 years ago
actually after guns were invented knights wore armor as heavy as 300 lbs
joe848484 2 years ago
That's like wearing me rofl. I know people in the Army with complete assault gear and ruck sacks AND medical equipment and still don't weigh nearly that much.
TheWitnesserer 2 years ago
Wrong. Plate armor and chainmail, intended for battle, would weight around 80 lbs combined.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
More than that, some of the knights couldn't even stand correctly in the amount of armor they wore, they had to be on horses

@Ranziel1 At a pop culture expo someone was wearing chainmail, they said that the coat of mail was about 25 pounds.

The sword in How It's Made was made by Albion, which i think is better than this one, since Albion is considered the best manufacturer.

this is something they need on time warp to see if the sword is cutting it or tareing it. what do you think?
fisherman721 2 years ago
i think it cuts the first 2 times but the third you can see it bent one side which is a tear probably just from getting dulled

thats an ugly sword
1gudspliff 3 years ago
Any sword can be sharp, but a katana is curved meaning less surface area is touching your target, making it more efficient. Also the katana is made with 2 grades of steel, making is stronger and sharper than any other kind of sword. Just saying that almost any kind of sword could do the same to that 1/8 inch aluminum.

CosmicDestroyer99 3 years ago
That's alright, I just don't hate it when anime fanboys think that katanas can slice through tanks and boulders and still be sharp enough to shave with.
aspie101 3 years ago 4
It's the curved design I love and can cut through human body parts like butter..But I have a Viking sword which can do the same
CosmicDestroyer99 3 years ago 4
It's just that you have to angle the blade just right while you pull it towards you to slice effectively.
aspie101 3 years ago
45* is accepted as the most frequently used angle.
Also, for the unwise, and blade with weigh behind it will cut through a steel drum.
He was testing the scratch and dent resistance of the design.
