About the Course

This is a a three day event demonstrating the processes used to create sword quality steel, also known as oroshigane. Using charcoal we will carburize electrolytic sponge iron (denkaitetsu), and wrought iron. The result will then be prepared and sorted by carbon content. Finally, we will build a billet ready to forge into a sword blade.
