@beatles42ohgg94 11 місяців тому
this is one of the reasons the katana was such a formidable weapon. did you see how they bent and wobbled like noodles? other lesser swords would either straight up break, or bend, and not bend back. that flexibility was what made them amazing. now, if only they attatched them at a slight angle for the slicing motion instead of chopping motion.
@outandabout259 9 місяців тому
@@beatles42ohgg94 actually you got that completely backwards. Katanas with their differential hardening have one hard but brittle edge and a soft spine that bends instead of springing back. Many spring steel swords from medieval Europe and other places, on the other hand, can bend pretty much into a C and will spring right back with no plastic deformation. Sure, a katana will not snap like a spring steel sword when bent more than it can handle, but the amount it can bend before plastic deformation is significantly smaller.

@SureTadpoleYT Рік тому
This is actually due to the frame rate of the camera. When a blade is in the same spot in the circle every time the camera captures a frame, it will look like it's standing still. If it's slightly faster or slower it will look like it's going slow or backwards. This is the same reason it happens multiple times since all the swords look the same, you don't know how many swords you're seeing between frames and it can vary.

@@wandrin2925 I don't remember ever seeing the backward spinning with my own eyes in natural light. It happens all the time with lights that flicker on and off though! As far as I know, eyes don't have a specific "refresh rate" where all receptors go on and off at the same time, there is a lot of overlap and at any given time some are on and some off, which results in a smooth blend and motion blur instead of sharp still images.

Couple of suggestions for spinny swords... 1. Build a funnel from some plywood and let the roundy items roll in a line out of a chute. 2. Connect a ramp wuth an angle to work in combo with gravity to cascade items into the rotation of the blades 3. Assistance might be needed from an agitator in case of less roundy things. Depending on the angle out of the funnel. This was a great viddy idea come true! Thank you, gentlemen!

The flexing of the blades on that last shot is actually really cool because swords (not just katana but any sword) is supposed to have a bit of flex to it so that it doesn’t just snap as soon as it hits something hard like another sword, a shield, armour, bone, etc. That whole Newton’s Third Law thing applies to ancient weaponry as well.
