Reviews
"After reading it, I can say the authors accomplished what they set out to do. The book was thorough enough to be a resource, but it wasn't weighty." - Introvert Japan blog, " The Art of the Japanese Sword is an extensive tour through the methods of sword creation, preservation, and appreciation. More than that, it is a celebration of the creativity and dedication of a culture in refining a tool of war into an implement of extreme philosophical and aesthetic beauty." - Ikigai Way, This is a very nice publication with wonderful photographs that tantalize one's mind. A worthy addition to any library. -- Jason Lee A. Hatcher, Founder, Katsujinken, a Sword Arts Journal, "Though there can be no substitute for the study of Nihonto in person, […] but for the lay person, a sword novice, or bladesmith without an understanding of the process, this book is the next best thing.
