Knives on the street

[@808mkduffer]

Love your official Yaxell umbrella!

[@monsonontario7120]

I know you are on a budget but buying a $88 sword is like buying a Martha Stewart chef knife. Watching you go to the Seki Knife Festival is like me living my dream of going there.

[@LuisRamirez-wo9sm]

The girl following you was cute

[@BBBYpsi]

That place looked really cool to walk thru. I would want to buy so many knives. Now for you. Starts to rain then some good wind with the rain. The burfection man just walks around in this like a boss.

[@jaroslavmiko2785]

Hi can you give me the link for the good Whetstone not the Chinese fake one but Japanese please thank you very much god bless you out

[@1018Frankie]

What an experience, I want to go to Japan!

[@sullyroams]

btw 88,000 Japanese yen is more like $880 not $88, I'm sure you would have figured that out eventually though! haha

[@aeero8577]

Thank you very much for sharing this 😃

[@lanctermann7261]

Next trip to JapanN check out the samurai sword museum near Aoyama. Bizen Osfune is the name of it. Great video!

[@shmuelshvarts196]

It’s raining he has a umbrella but doesn’t use it

[@Tremulousnut]

The outside stalls is where they sell the commercial and/or second grade stuff.

[@foretell6819]

爾靈山 where do they sell good stuff?

[@Dethchef2992]

How does one get the knives and katanas through customs? You just gave me a life goal of going to this festival

[@Tremulousnut]

Toy/model non cutting katana is fine, but genuine katana require an export license, which isn't always possible, especially if you katana is of certain historic importance.

[@frenchblacksmith8066]

Ryky buying a katana in Japan is my second dream the first being to make one with masters You're so lucky!!! I might get to japan man your videos make me jealous😂👌

[@frenchblacksmith8066]

You defenetly need to make a video about the sword

[@Tremulousnut]

It depends on what you want to buy. Some katana can be exported (new swords, common swords, minor lords, etc), but those with historic importance cannot. The whole affair has to be either planned in advance (so you can bring it with you), or have the smith/merchant send it to you after you've returned to your home country.

[@dianewomble527]

Ryky, you get to work with and handle some of the best knives made did Seki live up to your expectations?

[@Crazt]

I had planned to make my way to Seki Knife Festival in 2019, sadly it was canceled due to a typhoon...

[@leejiaqing7750]

I planned mine to 2020's but Covid :(

[@dannyward7829]

Ryky this seemed like the most apt video to comment on - have you ever heard of/can you comment on the quality of Nagomi knives? They’re made in Seki and make some really pretty blades at reasonable prices. Thanks.

[@nhojcam]

88,000 yen is like $800, not $88. i'd buy the whole table if they were 8,800 yen each. basically, take the cost in yen and divide by100 to get equivalent $US.

[@Maximus-tq7pl]

Pls grab a Mac professional chef's knife MTH-80 and do a review on it if possible. Thanks!

[@UgglemannenFTW]

Whats the end song ?

[@hhex]

Why you didn't use your umbrella?

[@ThePovit]

Guess he's enjoying too much he forgot

[@edcgearpocketknife]

That’s awsome how often do they do this

[@hrhamada1982]

just like the portland or Atlanta show for us Americans

[@akswrkzvyuu7jhd]

Ryky, don't knock Mac knives. Since you introduced me to Japanese water stones, ours all have razor edges for the first time in 40 years.

[@b-radg916]

He knocked them?

[@terryb3388]

why are we looking at you? Should be named "My Selfie at Seki Knife Festival"

[@fukunaga-kane]

I thought the knife festival is held during the earlier October, is it another festival?

[@amricke]

It was on the 6th and 7th of October.

[@Totoro88]

Professor X in the background?

[@amricke]

So cool.

[@gregoryburris6374]

Fascinating....wow. I watched it 5 times! Love it! Greg B.

[@gregoryburris6374]

Video on Wednesday you picked up I assume! ; )

[@b-radg916]

Man, I'd need a bigger knife drawer!! 🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪
