    I could not look away from the screen. A wonderful glimpse of a true craftsman and a world now almost lost. Thanks Rob, I very much enjoyed this.

    I have several antique tsubas and this video makes me understand the work of artisans of the Muromachi era and even Edo who had the tools but no glasses or magnifying glasses to correct and above were working without proper lighting

      Yeah...these guys are true artists

    • @kachi2782

      They actually had magnifying glass and used also pure rock crystal to intensify the light. and they also worked during the day in plain day light not in the evening with a candle. No light in the world is brighter than the sunlight during day time.
      It is only when electricity became widely available that work started to be done indoor.
      The craftspeople who really had it hard are the lacquer ware Urushi Makie artisans, because the work in the old days had to be done indoors at all time in a thoroughly clean room with no dust whatsoever and when the weather was at the most humid because Urushi doesn't dry when the weather is dry, it requires humidity to dry. So the craftspeople had to work during the burning hot japanese summer, indoor with candle light because there were no glass windows at that time and under the conditions of working inside an actual sauna. Those craftspeople had a hell or a hard time making very detailed things, far more intricate and complicated than a Tsuba.

    I think it's heartwarming that his father's mentor just came and train him to mastery

    Ive studied feudal Japanese weaponry and armor for fifteen years and ive been a blacksmith for about eight years and the more I study and the more time passes the more I get interested in the details like making tsuba or the small decorative pieces for armor and koshirea for swords. While making swords is always rewarding it can get repetitive.

    J'ai plusieurs tsubas antiques et cette vidéo me fait comprendre du travail des artisans de l’ère muromachi et même Edo qui avaient les les outils mais pas de lunettes ou de loupes correctes et surtout travaillaient sans éclairage correct

    It has always been clear to me there are different levels of Artisans :) And although I am with this guy spiritually I will never have the patience that he has. I like to think my philosophy is similar and applied to my work in the most efficient way that I can while realizing I will never reach this level due to my impatience. The hope that I give people is that you can approach things with this philosophy while not achieving it. :)

    A lot of people collect the Tsuba's themselves as art work. I myself have one.
