BBC Handmade in Japan 1/3 | Samurai Sword Documentary
My computer is fixed at last, and while i was browsing, i come across this interesting documentary i thought i’d share with you guys here.
It’s a series looking at Japan with part one being focused on the art of traditional sword making in Japan (the location in question is Omuta Japan).
Curiosity got the better of me when i realised that the name of the family featured was the same as our very own resident Guru of Japanese Militaria…..Nick!
I’m not able to tell how common a name in Japanese would be, that is, like ‘Smith’ or ‘Jones’ is in English, and i couldn’t help but wonder if they were possibly relations of sorts???
Anyway, i hope you find it as interesting as i did.
