[Looking for Craftsmen] The disappearing handicraft in Wu 'an-Knife Craftsman

The sword is shining and cold. Decades of hard work have forged ingenuity! Breeze and fire, temper and forge, and inherit the endless dream-building spirit from generation to generation! However, with the passage of time and the development of modern scientific civilization, some traditional crafts will inevitably be lost in the long river of history!

"Strike while the iron is hot punting grinding bean curd, three great sufferings on earth! It's all hard work, "Li Xiheng said.

Li and Li Xiheng are from Guzhen. Their ancestors were swordsman. Three generations in my family make a living by making knives. /kloc-When he was 0/3 years old, he began to learn how to make knives from his father. Li's Dao is very popular in Wu 'an market because of its good quality and high technology!

An ordinary piece of iron has been made into a sharp knife through 25 processes by the hand of a knife maker, which is backed by decades of persistence and responsibility.

After baking and forging, with the joint efforts of Li and Li Xiheng, the small iron block gradually looks like a model.

From blanking to finished products, every time you make a knife, you have to go through 25 processes, and each process must be done by yourself. Because it takes time and effort, I can only play five a day.

Quenching and grinding. Every process is serious. Behind the rigor and meticulousness is the emphasis on quality, which is the concentrated expression of the craftsman spirit! In particular, quenching technology is the core technology of blacksmiths, and it is a key step to do well, and this technology needs years or even more than ten years of experience accumulation. The suppression of iron seal is the guarantee of quality!

The picture below shows the neighbors of the knife shop collecting three generations of knives in different periods. The third generation cutter is as sharp as the first generation cutter, so it is safe to cut iron with it.

For many years, Li and his son have been looking for spiritual young people to teach technology, but no young people can persist. Li said that in this line of work, you can't be a teacher for ten or eight years. Besides, knife making is manual work, dirty and tired, and the sound of iron striking affects people's hearing. Most people don't have the patience to persevere. As he grew older, Li was a little worried about whether he could find an heir to the knife. "We can only take one step at a time, otherwise we will only lose our way." ?
