The iron is strong, but the edge must be razor sharp. Inside the cutlery guild, we are welding hard steel to soft iron to create a blade that never dulls. Tonight, we forge the knife.
This 2-hour sleep story takes you inside the grinding, sparking world of a Medieval Cutler. Experience the "Secret Metallurgy" required to forge a blade that is tough enough to chop wood but sharp enough to shave hair. Watch the "Lamination" process (welding a strip of high-carbon steel into a jacket of soft iron), the "Grinding" on the massive sandstone wheel, and the delicate assembly of the "Scale Handles" using brass rivets.
Listen to the rhythmic hiss of the hot steel, the shhh-shhh-shhh of the wet grinding stone, the tap-tap of the handle pins being peened, and the satisfying slice of the final test. We explore the difference between a "Whittle Tang" and a "Scale Tang," why "Shear Steel" was prized for cutting, and how a Cutler’s mark was a guarantee of life-or-death quality. This is a story of friction, sparks, and sharpness.
Topics Covered:
The Weld: The "San Mai" technique—sandwiching hard steel (for the edge) between layers of soft iron (for flexibility).
The Grind: Lying flat on a wooden board over a massive water-powered sandstone wheel to grind the bevels. The "hollow grind."
The Handle: Shaping bone or antler "Scales." Drilling the holes with a bow drill and riveting them to the steel tang.
The Sharpening: The final hone on an oil stone. The "Burr" and the "Strop."
