Blacksmithing isnt something that most people ever get the chance to try their hand at. Japanese swords and knives are arguably the best (if not amoung the best) and most famous in the world. As someone that has been interested in Japanese history and culture for a long time, it was a real pleasure to experience part of it. I certainly recommend it to anyone with similar interests.
