The Kawachi family of Japanese sword smiths has been a famous sword smith family for 16 generations. Kunihira, the 15th generation of the Kawachi family, father of Shimpei, is certified as a Mukansa (non-judgeable level), the highest level of swordsmithing. He and his apprentices continue to make great swords today, reviving a technique that was not passed down and had ceased to exist.
Supporting their family, Simpei is spreading the value of not only his own family, the Kawachi family, but also Japanese swords themselves to the world.
In recent years, older swords are often regarded as more valuable and less expensive. However, even today there are many swordsmiths who make Japanese swords with great skill. Although swords may seem expensive at first glance, we believe that the long time, expensive materials and equipment required to create them should be appreciated as art pieces.
Due to the changing times and wars up to now, many times the technique of making Japanese swords has been restricted and the skills have been lost. We hope that the world will appreciate and support the legitimate value of these art pieces in order to pass on their lives and the modern art pieces that make them in the modern age.
We plan to support the Kawachi family and other swordsmiths by selling swords all over the world, and related projects. Please subscribe and keep up with the latest news.

🌟Kurouchi Gyuto Sharpening from Blacksmith until Natural Stone Sharpening by Ivan
• Natural Stone Polishin...
Hello, we, Ivan and Yuka have a unique experience of Japan through our business and life such as rich Japanese culture, exquisite crafts, breathtaking natural landscapes, beautiful foods and exciting travel, we share what we feel through our business and our lives. By sharing such our experiences, we hope that you will enjoy through our videos!
We are so, so, so humbled and excited to have these treasures come through our doors. We hope to inspire and educate anyone interested in supporting and preserving such an amazing craft!
Absolutely beautiful pieces. So interesting to see such art pieces.
Those are absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing this video with us.
I love the spiritual element to making these amazing swords. Truely amazing!
Really enjoying your videos I hope you keep making them.
Kiwachi sensei and Gassan sensei are my two favourite current Japanese sword smith!! Get all choked up about the whole thing lol!!
Straight line hamon is so amazing
Why are japanese swords checked without the hilt attached? To clean the oil under the handle parts?
This was really interesting and it was sort of a big surprise to me when he spoke English just like that. I've been led to believe that it's a bit of a rare thing for a Japanese person to speak English.
The craft is truly beautiful, the decorations and details are so neat. And it's interesting they paid attention to moon's highest point as well. Traditionally here in west I believe we've paid attention mostly to the sun's movements throughout the year and the phases of the moon, but watching the moon like that as well is new to me. I'm truly a sucker for craft where the artist has put all of their spirit into it and for example like in this case draws inspiration from nature.
I think everyone I've known has appreciated Japanese swords more than western swords. Western swords are sometimes like mauls, sometimes like decorative pieces or some sort of spears for impaling. However Japanese swords are made by great deal of mastery and tradition, with utmost care and honor in the skill, to be fantastic at cutting and for skillful swordsmanship. And they're simple, neat, beautiful in that pure way. Not flashy or tactless. In a way humble but full of beauty. I feel like most people wouldn't care about collecting western swords, but people buy decorative cheap katanas to make their home more beautiful.
Japanese sword are appreciated without the fittings mainly to enjoy the entire blade free of anything, as well the tang and area just above the tang have important details about the sword as well. And yes it’s easier to clean and view the sword details and hamon free from oil
Being completely made by human hands is truly amazing. Unbelievable craftmanship...
Yes to see these swords in person is truly breathtaking!
i Love Japan, thank you for sharing your wonderful experience 🇵🇭🙏
Beautiful
that tanto is so beautyfull
The truly beuty of katana..... I wish can have 1😊
I love a simple hamon it reminds me of a ghost laying on a pond and if you see it on a sword you will know why I phrase like I do
me from Thailand I love SWAT katana Japanese❤❤❤❤❤
ive got a keicho-genna era hizen-to that has alot of similarity to the koto yamashiro rai school. even back in the very early edo period smiths wer doing their best to make blades in the old almost forgotten traditions. the jihada is a mix of a very tightly forged ko-hada or konuka-hada with spots of mokume mixed in. the hamon is a very uniform suguha with no ashi. its a pretty stout blade the nagasa is just over 21 inches. its a big wakizashi with a modest sugata. i rescued it from a military antique store.
Well... That just got you another subscriber.
I want to see the real japanese blades as well T_T. Beautiful!!
I just subbed and liked ... looking forward to more
Thank you so much !
messaged you on your website for purchase @@ivanyuka-japan
Nothing better than a good piece of steel
The blade with the crescent moon is a beautiful work of art.
I'm interested if it comes up for sale.
The sword will be available later this year from Strata Portland Main in US. We just added their website link on the description so you can check it.
@@ivanyuka-japan I cannot travel at this time , Thanks for your website info added
yes I want to buy one for reasons I do not know...
Mukansa is more accurately translated as "does not require judgement/examination (for exhibition)" instead of "cannot be judged".
We were wondering how to write Mukansa, so thank you for your kind advice
the second sword is so much cooler. the real sword, the weapon, formula 1 car.
wooahgh 😮😮

If you know the end result in advance, then it’s not art. It is craft. No matter how amazing it is, it’s still craft and in no way is that an insult. It can be artistic. But it’s not art. Art can show craftsmanship, but it’s not craft. It’s art.
Good for the history, but inferior to every modern steel.
Love the art but the host is soooo boring
camera shakin all over the place was hella distracting and dizzying. get a gimbal or something. it shouldn't be so expensive if you can afford to travel to places sheeesh
Thanks!! We will look into it !
Bro they prolly live in Japan and you can take trains all over, you live in Northern California around Sacramento I would bet cause people don't say hella unless they are from here but Japan is not a large country and most developed countries have much better mass transportation then we got here
@@robdeskrd sorry bro but your guess isn't even in the same country XD but that's an interesting observation I'll take note of. also whether it's within country or overseas, traveling anywhere costs losta money. I've been to Japan meself and tho their trains and bus system makes getting from point A to point B convenient, it is by no means cheap.
Just bull shit..Beautiful blades in the display..Give them to the Forged in Fire guys and we will see how really good they are!!!!!!
