Hey FZ, was wondering if you would be willing to share your crucible recipe. Prefab crucibles are too expensive to be disposable and are known for cracking at high temps such as are needed for crucible steel and if that happens during the heating process I could lose my steel. Yet yours seem to hold together perfectly and withstand the high temperatures. Been tinkering with knife making for a little while now for my hunting and fishing buddies and myself but wanted to delve into crucible steel to make a couple of sets of field knives for my buddies and I for hunting and fishing out of wootz. I would really appreciate any help or advice or recipes I was also wondering; in your testing, what is the average Rockwell hardness on these blades and do you think they would be suitable for workshop tools. If so I'm asking because I would like to make myself some marking knives, plane blades, and chisels for the workshop as well but not sure if this type of steel would be suitable. I use my chisels quite aggressively, and my planes on end grain for shooting which is hard on those fine edges and require me rehoning my Edge quite often when using on hardwoods like ironwood and hard maple. Do you think this still would hold up to shop tools?

[@tyleratkins1087]

Beautiful sword! Your a master of your craft sir! I do a little blade smithing myself and I must say you make it look way easier than it is. Keep up the good work!

[@nickyashnyk4549]

@@jerichojoe307 I think he has a video explaining how he does it I just can't remember which one

[@tristantheafflicted]

I really appreciate the crisp, precise lines, that's one of the most underrated iconic feature of japanese style blades that so many youtube makers miss. Super nice!~

[@fz-makingknives3663]

Thanks 🤝👍

[@nickaschenbecker9882]

Amen! Geometry is what makes a Japanese style blade what it is. There are a lot of really big kitchen knives being made on UA-cam and the makers are calling these things katana or tanto or whatever.

[@beb32225]

That isn't a sword, it is a work of art....You sure don't leave any room for a second chance with your grinding work....one mistake would show like a broken thumb. Very nice Sir.

[@arawiri]

It's a sword, I assure you. Its definitely a sword

[@au4686]

@@arawiri its not a sword its a shirasaya katana
A sword has a guard while shirasaya katan has no guard at all

[@cheetodorito7403]

@@au4686 shirasaya katana is a type of sword. It's not a katana btw, no curve, no differential hardening. It's a ninjato.

[@thomasmantifel5093]

It's both.

[@karinneeskens]

@@cheetodorito7403 there is no such thing as a ninjato. Ninjatos only exist in movies and tourists shops.
Furthermore, shirasaya is not a type of katana, but rather a sword mounting tool to store different kinds of swords (nihonto) such katana, wakizashi or tanto.
This most likely resembles a shikomizue, albeid a short one.
