  • Mixing my own shibuichi to make the habaki for my wakizashi project. To obtain an alloy composed of 80% copper and 20% silver using 800 silver (80% silver and 20% copper), I used 75% pure copper and 25% 800 silver.

    Habaki is usually not made polished because it keeps the sword in its sheath due to friction, this will quickly scratch the polished copper, because it is soft. On the contrary, various oblique notches are often applied to habaki, which are called neko gaki. Overall great job, thanks for the video!

    • @althesmith
      @althesmith 7 місяців тому

      A way around this is to have part of the habaki with file marks and part polished.

      But that's not the goal. Education is bad on a purpose, the goal being to filter out only the most fit for this kind of soul crushing "learning". What they want are not creative and free minded people: they want EMPLOYEES , wage slaves if you prefer , automatons.
      If you're a calm automaton with a capacity to swallow and retain tons of "data" you'll be an engineer, if you are not you'll be any other kind of working class robot .
      They don't want you to happy and love to learn and aim to find a job you're passionate about: this is not how you run a society , you need your ant colony to be ordered, you need your drones, not individuals.
      I'm serious

    The rear edge of the habaki should not be proud of the blade spine (mune) otherwise it will catch on the saya as you resheath the blade.

    Shi = four bu Ichi=1 formula = 4 parts to 1 copper to silver, Habaki should be then 'scratched' to have friction against the collar, and shibuichi is generally dipped in liver of sulphur or something similar to give it a nice grey/black/purple patina.......

    @donovansweet9566 Рік тому

    Looks like this worked out well but your final ingot showed signs of porosity. I'd suggest two adjustments to your process when working with copper alloys as copper has the ability to absorb some 200% if it's weight in oxygen. Charcoal on top of your metal in the crucible and water cast the ingot instead of graphite mold. Just be sure to cast into sub boiling water as you don't want a flash explosion of molten metal.

      Since it is a non-ferrous metal mixture, it is usually the reverse of steel. quenching when it gets hot will anneal the metal after it has been work hardened!
