DISCLAIMER: surviving falchions have much stronger distal tapers than the one we made in this video. We were limited by starting with a machete blade which wasn't perfect but much closer to historical falchions than ones you can buy. Historical falchions are about the same weight as ours, if a little more top heavy, but start at around 5mm thick at the base and taper to around 1.5mm at the top, and then have a gradual bevel that makes it even thinner on the flat part of the blade making them very thin swords overall. I'll be making a follow-up video discussing all the differences between our falchion and the real museum ones.

@bashpr0mpt-rc5dd 11 месяцев назад

So why not use a much thicker blade like the one you abandoned which started much thicker then hit it with the sander to give it a nice taper? Not to mention, rockwell testing the material to begin with, then differential case hardening and appropriate heat treating to make it a vastly superior product with minimal effort (albeit repetitive waiting around like all heat treats are).

@Zannooda 11 месяцев назад

Finally I see someone shows how to make a proper falchion after Alex Steele (and for the fraction of the cost ;). Very nice job! The ONLY drawback is that the handle should be much SHORTER. It's a bit shame, since if you really wanted to feel how historically accurate one-handed falchion handles, your hand should be tight between the crossguard and the pommel...

One thing that I think is awesome with the new sword is you can go out and chop up brush with it, without feeling like your hurting a traditional sword .

@outandabout259 Год назад

And, if the blade breaks? Take the handle pieces off and put them on a new machete.

@anarchyandempires5452 Год назад

I mean it technically is a traditional sword, Just not a conventional one. Way The hell better steal than anything those poor bastards back in the day would have had tho. As far as breaking goes I've used that same machete for quite some work for a few years now, I'm not sure It can actually break, it bends sure but I think it's too thin to actually break under reasonable circumstances, I mean I've hit plenty of fences and iron bars whit mine and apart from chipping The damage has been relatively minimal.

There are a few signs shad loves a sword he gets his hands on. The first - if it meets his expecations for looks there is lamsot like this glint in his eye reminisant of a kid in a candy shop The second - he does not want to stop playing around with it because it feels good. The third and final sign - he is insatly i want to wear this i need a sacabard of some description. This checked all the boxes and i must say looks fantastic and i cant wait for the next video showing the differnces between the 2 swords

They did the work that provided this opportunity, it would be cool if a partnership formed!

Video Idea: A Castle Breakdown episode where you compare the different Disney castles throughout the world, and referencing the Disney movies associated with it (Disneyland in CA, Paris, and Hong Kong are Sleeping Beauty and Disneyworld in Orlando and Tokyo are Cinderella, and Shanghai is Enchanted). I think it would be cool to see you break them down as far as defensibility. Honorable mentions would be the castle from Tangled and, outside of Disney, the castles featured in the Shrek movies.

@andrewmize823 Год назад

The key differences I've always noticed between equivalent tools and weapons are in the balance and weight distribution. An axe made for felling trees can afford to be heavy and forward-balanced because it's purpose-made for cutting timber. It doesn't require the speed or maneuverability of an axe that's going to be used for offensive and defensive purposes in battle because it's specifically designed to function as a tool. A felling axe and a battle axe are essentially the same thing in form and function, it's just that they're engineered to be effective in very different circumstances.

@Hadar1991 Год назад

I know that Shad is mostly focused on Middle Ages, but as a Pole, I can only hope that Shad someday will make an video about marvellous Polish sabre known as "szabla" in Poland ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szabla ). But when we are talking about falchions and machetes maybe you should also compare them to dusacks ("tasak" in Polish, "tesák" in Czech) which is a form of a short sabre with similar functions to falchions, which appeared after phasing out the falchion.

@Valsorayu Год назад

Comparing it with the Shashka "Long Knife" would also be interesting as it would show something from the Caucasus region.

@@Valsorayu Yes you could compare Shashka with Polish sabres, but not necessarily with a falchion or a machete. A bit different purpose of the weapon.
