      I think he talks about the series in general, how the episodes went from a 10min max format with cnc or hand-cutted steel sheets to a more complex and actual blacksmithing show. Making their own ore, using damascus, engraving, composite blades... episodes as" hattori hanzo katana build" wich are around twice as long show this evolution :p

    • @DarkestVampire92
      @DarkestVampire92 8 років тому +4

      +TankMunky And i think it shows why they were reluctant to make this for a while. It took a lot of work and a lot of different techniques to get it right.
      On the other hand, i´ve rarely seen them struggle so much to even lift a sword, to the point where none of them could swing it anymore. I guess thats why they dont do the Dragonslayer.

      +djchange Except you're more likely to make a laser gun out of stuff then these weapons and How to isn't meant to actually help you be an ninja or become President for life in some country no one can find on a map.
