It says something, about the craftsmanship. And the dedication of those sword smiths, that after centuries! Those blades still look as though they are fresh forged. I'd even venture to say, that their edges still remain as sharp as a razor. Unlike other swords throughout human history, there is just something about the Japanese Katana, that just has a presence. Makes you wonder, if those swords could talk..what stories would they tell. Great video, you've earned a subscriber.

Sad to hear it relocated. I hunted this place down in 2004. Hopefully all these treasures have found an as good or better home. I thought it was pretty neat the museum was in an unassuming location, not flashy. It did make it hard to find, haha Nice to see they allowed you to take a video. I asked if I could take pictures and sadly they said no. Many thanks for the video!

They only allowed video in the week or two before it closed _because_ it was relocating. Ronin Dave told me that the "no photos/videos" rule is back in place at the new location. Thanks for the comment!

Good to know that autofocus sensor can be seen in every reflective glass shot. I'll use manual for glass shots from now on.

Did you say Ota? As in the city in Gunma? If so, that's pretty rad. I had a short (very) stint there working for Nova. Short, as in this was about 2 months before they declared bankruptcy, lol. You might think it random, but I actually recently inherited a katana that my great uncle had bought in 56, and from what it's looking like...it should probably be in a place like that instead of my bedroom, lol.

Yup, Ota-shi in Gunma! I used to occasionally meet and drink with some of the Ota Nova teachers at the New York Cafe (a tiny bar that closed around 2000-1(??ish) and the Ikkyu izakaya across the corner fromth Shiyakusho. If there is a possibility that the sword could be a war trophy brought back after WWII, I would have it checked by a trustworthy appraiser. You never know...it could be one of the missing National Treasure swords that disappeared after the war. historycollection.com/one-japans-prized-possessions-went-missing-wwii-never-found/2/

@@BushidoDevilDog It's one of those things though, ya know. He bought it in 56, 11 years after the war had ended from an arts and antiques dealer in Ginza. He had a telegram from a guy who was part of a "Japanese Sword Appraisal Committee." saying it was a Katsumitsu from Bizen, and that it was about 560 years old, but its just a telegram, and I don't know if the NBTHK was going by a different name back then or what. There's definitely a mei on the tang, but its rusty and hard to make out. I posted pictures on the r/swords subbreddit, but still waiting for them to respond.
