Amazing Private Japanese Sword Collection

Join us for an exclusive interview with Japanese sword collector Yamanouchi Fumiharu and find out about the features of Satsuma swords and the mindset of the samurai.
Yamanouchi grew up in post-war rural Japan in a small town in the northern part of Kagoshima Prefecture. His ancestors were samurai and from an early age he had a deep interest in the traditions of the warrior class.
Today Yamanouchi is the Chairman of Meiko Technos - a large utilities and power company, supporting the wider infrastructure of Kagoshima Prefecture. His personal mission to protect the samurai legacy of Kagoshima has led to him amassing a collection of over 270 valuable swords. We take a look inside his private museum which has been specially built to keep the swords in prime condition for the next generation to enjoy.
