KATANA TOGISHI - Japanese Traditional Sword Sharpner part 3

[@nomaschalupas2453]

So do most sword fights happen during tea time with the person sitting and drinking with you? Seems to be alot of training for that situation.

"You may own the item, but it's everyone's at the same time. If you don't look after it, you don't deserve to own it." No wonder this guy is one of Japan's "national treasures". I bow before anyone with such a passion for one's job...

[@circuscase]

Name of the Background song? I have heard it set to other videos on youtube.

[@lordtains]

their re-sheating of the sword is quite interesting. they hold the sword with their left hand? abunai desu ne

[@Gunyo]

The noto technique is a very old version used for tachi. You're not holding the blade, only the mine with the knuckles of the finger and thumb. If you know what you are doing, it is not dangerous at all.

[@silencethesilenced]

yes, it doesn't look very dangerous since the tip (kissaki?) of the sword is nowhere near the fingers. however, in some iaido kata videos i have seen, the tip seems to come dangerously close to the fingers. surely even a slight misjudgment can result in injury when using a sharpened blade. i always wonder how they sheath the katana without looking.

[@Gunyo]

The pronunciation is interchangable depending on who you talk to; Some say mune others say mine.
