Es ist in einem nicht in Worte zu fassenden Ausmaß bedauerlich , dass unzählige dieser Kunstwerke heute in , vergessenen Schubladen vor sich hin schlummern und so , dem Kunst interessierten Volk vorenthalten werden . Es kann nur Beachtung finden , was uns allen zugänglich ist also sei Sammlern gesagt , dass es allein ihre Pflicht ist , diese Kunstwerke als Würdigung der Meister , wieder ans Tageslicht zu bringen und sie allen zugänglich zu machen . 😊😊😊
Very beautiful work from the master. So great to have this documented.
what a beautiful tsuba
Amazing workmanship! Glad to see the old ways being kept alive!
Great video, I'm glad the translation was done. I'll watch this one several more times. Thanks to all and especially to this great artisan and goldsmith.
Wonderful, beautiful craftsmanship.
Wow, wonderful work! Thanks 4sharing Rob.
this was a great find, thanks
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
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.

If I had to sum up this video in one word: 'Nice!'
Thank you
You are welcome Ian.
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.
11years later and ive come back to watch it again. Hope youre well Mark.
Thank you, epsecially for the translation. "ARIGATOO GOZAIMASU!"
I think it's heartwarming that his father's mentor just came and train him to mastery
that was awesome, much great patience must be required to do such work
Thank you.
Thank you for uploading and translating, I am very grateful to you for it
You are welcome. Im glad you like it. Rob.

@@RDPproject That is how I got here, was searching for additional information about finishing and surface treatment, watched most of Fords videos, I soon will start on my first engraving project.
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
quelle merveille
looking for Japanese metal chisels and chasing tools I cant find a site that sells the finished product. and i can only find one site that sells the blanks. Witch i dont know the write sizes to buy. Any help will be appreciated.
4:21 Scene's.
way when it reach this scene and the it started to have no sound at all???
Sorry for the long delay in replying to you. 2yrs actually. It lost sound as it was hit by a YT copyright strike for the music in that specific area. So that area was muted. Thankfully my subtitles were not. Again. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Rob.
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. :)
Im slowly collecting vids like these fo the artisans who work on Katanas....so when I have a bunch together I can watch them on tv. Will give you a copy of them when im done if you want?
I dont mate. If you read the end credits you'll see a Japanese friend of mine did the translation for me.
A lot of people collect the Tsuba's themselves as art work. I myself have one.
Kein problem Sepp
I do have the patience for this...but I dont have the tools, workplace or money to buy semi precious metals.
