World Record Kuro-uchi Speed Forging
In this video, you will see in 10 minutes what took Murray Carter a little over 30 minutes to produce -- a traditional Japanese Kuro-uchi kitchen knife. This video was filmed with the intention of demonstrating how fast raw materials can be transformed into a functional knife when one has the unique distinction of completing close to 14000 blades in his lifetime. However, when making knives for Murray's discerning customers, A LOT more time than just 35 minutes goes into them to make them perfect. The steps you will be able to view are: 1) Preparing the carbon steel core 2) Splitting the mild steel to accept the core 3) Fluxing the metals to be welded 4) Forge welding carbon steel and mild steel together 5) Rough forging the blade 6) Cutting the blade pattern out 7) Grinding 8) Final forging 9) Annealing 10) Removing scale 11) Cold forging 12) Stamping with maker's mark 13) Coating with quenching clay 14) Quenching 15) Tempering 16) Straightening 17) Grinding of secondary edge 18) Honing of primary edge 19) Attaching the handle For additional views of this process, check out this excellent slideshow on "The Making of a Kuro-uchi": picasaweb.google.com These techniques are taught by Murray in his bladesmithing courses.
