| Kozuka Kobou studio is a genuine sword studio to make happily.
|
| Begin work for noon and put a break, and, with guidance of a swordsmith, it is work for about 7 hours. A lunch, drink, a change of clothes, a muscular pain, some blisters, a burn are individual payment. I do not forget so army gloves, a towel either. |
