Post subject: What is the Japanese Sword?
PostPosted: Tue May 25, 2010 6:24 am 

Richard Turner, over on his forum Nihonto Bijitsubu, posted these links to a documentary film on Youtube.

It's a very well put together film and is especially interesting as it looks at the sword as a spiritual and cultural artefact as well as a weapon and work of art. Well worth watching.
