To understand Japanese sword polishing is to understand the Japanese sword. Down through the
years, the great sword connoisseurs in Japan have been sword polishers. A swordsmith can spend
a large amount of time forging a classic sword, but refining and bringing out its final shape, color
and texture so that all the details of the steel and hamon (the temper line) are clearly visible is the
responsibility of another craftsman - the sword polisher. An experienced polisher can tell
immediately by whom a blade was made, so discintctive is each smith's work and so vital is such
knowledge to the skilled polisher.The Art of Japanese Sword Polishing is the first book in English to
examine in great detail the polisher's techniques - skills it often takes up to ten years of
apprenticeship to master. The book illustrates the methods, materials and tools used for this
process. But its true aim is to enable the reader to fully appreciate the beauty of a well-crafted
Japanese sword. As readers learn both how the sword polisher enhances the beauty of the blade
and how he handles the problems of coaxing out its finest qualities through his polishing
techniques, they will come to a deeper understanding of the fine art of making the Japanese sword
and will be able to view, purchase or collect swords with greater pleasure.
