Description
Material characteristics
High strength and toughness: High manganese steel typically has a manganese content of over 13% and possesses high strength and good toughness. This enables the waist clearing knife to effectively resist external impact during actions such as chopping and blocking, making it less prone to breakage, and maintaining the integrity of the blade even under high pressure.
Wear resistance: During the use of high manganese steel, the surface will undergo work hardening due to friction and impact, resulting in a significant increase in hardness and thus improving the wear resistance of the blade, enabling it to maintain sharpness and extend its service life.
Corrosion resistance: High manganese steel has certain corrosion resistance, and is not easy to rust under normal use and storage environments, which can maintain the metallic luster and performance of the blade well.
Design Features
Blade: Generally slender, with a length between 60 centimeters and 90 centimeters, the blade width is moderate, the blade is straight or slightly curved, and the tip is sharp. This design is not only conducive to cutting and stabbing, but also maintains balance and flexibility when waving, making it easy to operate with one hand.
Knife handle: In order to adapt to one handed grip, the length of the knife handle is generally around 15 centimeters to 20 centimeters, with a moderate thickness. The surface is usually wrapped with materials such as wood, keratin, or silk to provide a good grip and anti slip performance, while also increasing the aesthetic appeal of the knife handle.
Sheath: Sheaths are often made of wooden materials and undergo surface treatments such as polishing, painting, or carving. Some may also be embedded with metal decorative elements to complement the blade, showcasing the delicacy and magnificence of waist clearing knives while also protecting the blade.
Craftsmanship
Forging: Heating high manganese steel billets to high temperatures to make them plastic, and then repeatedly pounding and pressing the steel through manual forging or machine forging to remove impurities from the steel, refine the grain structure, make the internal structure of the metal denser and more uniform, form a unique forging texture, and enhance the strength and toughness of the knife.
Quenching: This is a key process for improving the hardness and toughness of the blade. Heat the forged blade to a certain temperature and quickly place it in a cooling liquid for cooling. By controlling parameters such as heating temperature and cooling rate, the blade can achieve ideal hardness and toughness, while also making the cutting edge sharper.
Grinding and Polishing: After quenching, the blade needs to undergo multiple grinding and polishing processes, from coarse grinding to fine grinding, using different grit grinding tools such as sandpaper, grinding wheel, oilstone, etc., to smooth the surface of the blade, remove burrs, defects, and forging marks, and give the blade a metallic luster while achieving a sharp edge.
Equipment production and assembly: Carefully craft or select tools such as handles, blades, sheaths, etc. that match the style of the blade. The production of knife handles requires processes such as cutting, polishing, carving, and winding; The decoration on the blade and scabbard requires the use of various techniques such as carving, inlaying, lacquer art, etc. After the production is completed, assemble each fixture with the blade to ensure a tight and secure fit, and a coordinated and consistent overall appearance.
Cultural Value and Significance
Historical and cultural inheritance: The Qing waist knife was one of the commonly used weapons by the military and civilians during the Qing Dynasty, and held an important historical position. The production of high manganese steel Qing waist knife and one handed combat knife is not only an inheritance and continuation of ancient knife making techniques, but also a promotion and display of the history and culture of the Qing Dynasty, allowing people to better understand and feel the military and cultural style of that era.
