So much educational and entertainment value in such a short run time.
This is the best documentary on samurai swords I've seen. It covers sword metallurgy in great detail, traditional and current forging methods, the sword's use in martial arts, and its place in pop culture. It's entertaining and educational enough that I've watched it multiple times. Even gifted a copy to a friend who had expressed interest.
What I felt was very good about this DVD was its presentation about how the Samurai Sword was crafted. It explains in detail the process used in forging the katana. (sword) I recommend this DVD to all those who are interested in Samurai history.
