Forging a katana in a creative style from a rusty old leaf spring and using junk salvaged from the scrap yard. This is a detailed look at the process: taking a large piece of scrap steel, forging it into a katana, heat treating the blade, surface finishing, and recovering materials to create a unique handle to give the finished product a distinct post-apocalyptic vibe. The handle incorporates a variety of recycled sprockets and even uses shoelaces to create that well known handle wrap. This katana would be seen wielded by someone roaming the wasteland, rugged and brutal, yet somehow precise and refined at the same time.
