The
Craft of the Japanese Sword
Well over a thousand years old, the tradition of swordmaking
in Japan is one of the most highly regarded metal crafts
in the world. When all sword manufacture was prohibited
in Japan for seven years after World War II, the age-old
techniques were in danger of being lost forever. Today, in the
hands of a new generation of practitioners, the craft is making a
startling comeback. Connoisseurs say that the swords being
produced now are the equal of anything made in Japan in the past
few hundred years.
This book takes the reader into the workshops of four of Japan's leading sword craftsmen. Each craftsman has a different role in the manufacture of a blade. Yoshindo Yoshihara, the swordsmith, begins with raw steel made in a traditional charcoal-fueled smelter and refines it by folding and forging, gradually shaping it into a sword with a hardened edge. Okisato Fujishiro then sharpens and polishes the sword with fine stones to reveal the color and texture of the steel. Metalworker Hiroshi Miyajima makes the small copper-and-gold habaki collar that fits between the blade and the scabbard. Finally, Kazuyuki Takayama carves the hilt and the scabbard out of a single piece of wood. Black-and-white photographs show every stage of the manufacture, while important information on history, metallurgy, and modern-day appraisal is presented in an extensive introduction...
