She does a very beautiful job at making those jewelry!
Tamahagane translates to "jewel steel" so it is only natural that she takes that next step. :)

Ok that is realy cool. I have a Katana that needs refurbishing. It's an Edo period one maybe. Only problem is sending it out of Australia and gettingit back, legally.

Probably not a good idea to send it to Japan. If they deem it not to be an antique they will classify it as a weapon and confiscate it.
What’s their website? I’m traveling there next year and would like to support because of their story.

They are many people in this world interested to own a nihonto katana..but it restricted by country law and high prices..
I didn't even know that women did that blade polishing job. Most of them were men. 🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡 good for her

You made that "Punk blade" as a joke but I'm trying to buy it for $800 not a joke. 😐

Knowing that is probably a low ball price for a true Japanese katana of that quality and uniqueness I apologize, I'm broke. 😅

@@SoloKyoto I wonder what kind of loss they would take? The materials alone cost more than $800 to make that sword. The blade is made with Tamahagane. Then there's the time it takes by a sword maker's apprenticeship of 8 years and a polishers of 10 years to make and polish the Punk Katana. I'm guessing at least 200 hours for everything. So $20 per hour (a joke) would put this package over $5000. With $800 you still have choices. You can buy an authentic WW2 factory made katana...or you could buy a damaged or "flawed" handmade piece. I was thinking on making an offer on an old handmade Nihonto/katana that had what is considered a fatal flaw in collecting. It had the thinnest Ha giri or edge crack that doesn't effect the beauty but renders the sword broken for it's intended use. The seller suggested $2500 and I was hoping for $800-$900 so I passed...but man it was beautiful. There are Japanese auction sites where you can find a variety in your price range but they will have all sorts of issues from rust, scratches (way out of polish) to dents and handles falling apart but hey...it's old and been used. I learned the vocab and attended some sword shows and loved it! I held a $90,000 sword and more often the $4000-$20,000 range. The old timer American sellers were the real treasure...they were fun and full of stories. IIt's their social club. They are dying out and not being replaced.

@@brianpeck4035 If it takes her 3 weeks to just polish the blade, then 800 dollars is pretty crap even for the work hours put into just the polishing. Imagine the making of it too, the materials, and the rest of the furnishings.
