Someone forgot to add captions at 40:06. Here is what he says: Toshitsugu: "It must be kneaded and placed in the mold immediately, while it is still soft and well kneaded inside. If it takes longer, only the outside will be stiffened. The outside will be dried out, and the inside will not be well kneaded. So I must hurry up a little."

Theres something beautiful in watching a person do something with so much passion because you know they aren't forced to do what they are doing. It comes from withing. The drive, the sincerity and the joy of outcome can make even the most uninterested person smile.

I started training in martial arts at 12, entered the military at 17 with parental consent, then was accepted into the Special Forces after 2 years. Upon discharge became a martial arts / weapons instructor, and trained Police and security forces in Urban combat. I love watching true masters who exert the passion, and dedicate the better part of their lives to perfecting a set of skills. 😊👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Because my feet are so tiny as an adult female I have had to go find a shoe maker just to make shoes that fit my feet. The only other option is going to the kids' section and hoping to find shoes that aren't immature-looking and designed for kids. I appreciate and admire those who make shoes and it's worth the price for "custom-made" shoes. I also use the calligraphy ink sticks shown. It produces a far superior ink in my opinion. I never knew so much work went into making such beautiful ink sticks.

I'm sorry but that wasn't Damascus steel. That was patterned welded steel. Damascus Steel is quite special in it's makeup. Only one person has been able to make it in recent times and even then it couldn't be done reliably. The process is crazy hard. You need glass, leaves from a tree, a very specific temperature and Iron with a specific make up. So no this isn't Damascus Steel. Doesn't take away from it's beauty nor it's sharpness though but let's call it what it really is, Pattern welded steel.

one of the things I learnt recently was why American butter is white while most of the world has yellow butter. Apparently if the cows don't get to eat grass, the butter will be white! It looks so creamy there, being rolled through again and again, bringing it to fruition.
