Forging:
The making of a quality sword is a technical and labor intensive
process. The swords making skills involved simply can not be explained
by a few paragraphs. Traditionally the Japanese swords were made of
Tamahagane which was made by the tatara from iron sand using a lot of
charcoal. Unless stated, we choose the best suitable modern steels for
our blades today they are just as good as tamahagane. Be aware of swords
made of tamahagane out of Japan, it is very expensive to make a
tamahagane sword today. You probably can get tamahagane through a
tatara, but to make the actual blade out of tamahagana is a very hard
and tricky job!
Our forging methods are traditional. The iron steel is heated prior to
the forging process in a charcoal fire, the sword smith hammers the iron
to remove impurities. This process controls the carbon content in the
iron, the hardness of the iron alters while the iron cools down. It
maybe done a few times. The flat iron is then put in water to quench.
The extra carbon content is isolated from the original iron. The blade
steel is then formed. A good controlled process will give the steel good
flexibility as well as good hardness.
The different hardness pieces of steel are then fired and forged to form
the jacket steel and core steel. Together the core steel and the jacket
steel are folded around a dozen of times to form the blade, the carbon
and all other chemical content are spread out evenly, depends on how
many layers in the steel. you may see all kinds of different wave
patterns on your blade surface.
The blade has different lamination of construction. Below are diagrams
of the common methods of our swords.
Maru
Single type mono steel, hand forged high carbon, high carbon spring
steel. differential hardened and clay tempered, water quenched and
polished. The hardened edge is supported by softer parts of the blade.
Sanmai
High carbon steel is the hard core and two forge folded steel are
laminated on two sides. Hand forged folded, differential hardened and
clay tempered, water quenched and polished. The middle layer is exposed
and hardened as blade edge, the edge is supported by two folded steel
laminated on two sides.
Kobuse
Hand forge folded steel with the soft core steel enfolded in the spine.
differential hardened clay tempered, water quenched and polished. The
hardened edge is supported by the softer core steel and less hardened
folded steel to absorb shocks.
quenched
Harden the edge is by using the special clay wrapping the blade then put
in water to quench. It requires a lot of skills. The fire temperature
can not be too high or too low it needs to be well controlled by the
sword smith. The blade is then put into water for quenching. The blade
shape is done this process creates beautiful hamon hada and Martensite
(grains) on the blade surface.
The smith measures the blade and adjusts tang, checking if there are any
forging flows. The excess parts and material will be removed. If
everything is satisfied then the smith signs the engraving on the tang
and the blade is ready to be polished.
