Our Spring Steel vs. other brands
of swords. (2/18/2006)
Comparative
Stress test of our new SPRING STEEL BLADES versus competitor
brands in the same price range.
Video
is in WMV Format. It details the process in our forge used
to make our most basic katana (1045 Carbon Steel). Methods
vary (more complex) for our other swords. Windows media player
will stream the segment as you download so you won't have
to wait as with our MOV files.
Video
of Mokko and steel folding chair. (11/21/05)
This
is a quality control/destruction/torture test to show that
the cutting edge of our blade is made right/properly heat
treated. (Do NOT ever do this to a katana unless you intend
to destroy it for testing purposes).
The blade
on the Mokko is through hardened to optimize the quality of
the 1060 carbon steel. This is not to show the katana being
able to go through the chair... but that the tip can withstand
the force without bending, rolling the tip, or chipping the
kissaki.

Water
Bottles - Since I noticed that alot of people don't
know what cutting the rolls feel like, I decided to use
a more common target. Plastic and aluminum bottles are much
easier to cut, but watch out... they do scratch up your
polish. Video
