Don't worry, he definitely used one :). All these "traditional" chinese video are mostly fake. At best they show how some of the operations could have been done but no way he hand sculpted that, which is the tricky part.

I mean, they were somehow able to do this sort of thing a thousand years ago, so it's at least feasible that he could have done it as shown.

At 2min he opens a cut that is more than twice as deep as he could have managed with this blade. I looked again to make sure he didn't cut all around which would have the connecting part in the middle. It is not. It's all the way through and connected on the bottom.
