    Great info. I’ve learned a lot from you. I have many stones, but I’m interested in the larger wheel in your video. Where can I get one of those large wheels in 1000 grit.
    Many thanks,

  • @thomassiegfried5409
    @thomassiegfried5409 4 роки тому +5

    For everyone talking about how he references Misono and the aging of the blade or "rest period", I believe he is simplifying annealing the metal which if done to its highest level requires a slow tapering of the heat over a long period of time the slower and longer annealing process will align the structure of the metal more equally and completely resulting in a stronger blade, however when he speaks of it bending or curving if you don't do this, I am unsure

    Cool video and Vincent is a great guy, definitely a master level. But I really don't understand the aging part cause no, knives don't age it's not like vine because after quenching the only thing that can release the strain in the microstructure of the steel and therefore bend or warp is mentioned tempering due to carbon moving via diffusion (200-250°C and time depending on wanted hardness decreasing). So humidity or ambient temperature has nothing to do with it, knives in a bad environment can only rust and even stainless ones. Still enjoyed!

      @@schlomoshekelstein908 yes many steels in fact but from a specific temperature at a specific rate of cooling same as other quench methods, all are part of heat treatment, and has nothing to do with resting or aging. Some steels has a low temperature long time phase transformation E. G. Some train track steels are heated Ed to slowly form Bainaite crystal structure but isen't really applied to knife steels of such small cross-sections martensite is the harder state you want in knives some carbide formation in steels with high chrome and other alloys.
      And besides even air hardening steels are rearly air hardened if they are used in small cross sections such as knives but with contact with quench plates of aluminium and those steels are rarely forged as the working temp range is far too narrow for human forging

    Is forged knives generally better than stamped knives?

    • @einundsiebenziger5488
      @einundsiebenziger5488 Рік тому

      Are* forged knives better? No. Depends on the steel itself and how it was heat treated. Most industrially-made forged knives are actually stamped out from sheets of steel, anyway. The stamped-out blank then just gets re-heated and hammered into a mold. All industrially-made Japanese knives such as Misono, Miyabi, Shun, Tojiro and Yaxell are in fact stamped knives.

      @@DClaville You may be mistaken on this. Rolled steel contains some tension. It's also common to let cast iron age a little to relieve the same tension.

      @@DClaville Hey Daniel, with respect saying that they heat treat does not mean that they don't age it (logic mistake, heat treating and aging are not exclusive).
      And yes, aging at room temperature (natural aging) is a thing for some cast iron (www.moderncasting.com/articles/2014/01/01/cast-iron-machinability, figure 11).
      Can we say natural aging of thin Japanese steel for knife making is a good thing/bad thing/ useless thing then? No, not enough information obviously, but we should be respectful and acknowledge that we don't know enough ^^
