Thread: Pictures from Tool & Stone Festival, Miki, Japan

I must buy a smaller screen from my computer. I'm heaving dyspepsia, didn't read the title of the thread and thought I died and somehow I went to heaven. Also, heaven should definitely have razors too or at least some kind of steel. Having so many stones without something to hone is hell.

Is it the village Miki Kagawa province or the city in Hyōgo? They are both near Kyoto. I have to go there next year.

I see some Nakayama towards the bottom mounted on wood. It's a shame, by the time they get here, they'll be marked up to death...I'd love to get to Kyoto myself. Anyone ever see that program with the guy from Iron Chef where he went to trace the footsteps of the legendary Samurai Musashi?

Anyway, he had a Katana made by a family that had been doing it for 1000 years. Now, that's what I want...

Thanks for sharing the pictures they definitely got my heart rate up.

Rock porn at its finest.

I think the day I see this in person will be my final day of hone shopping. Although, I may spend the next ten years paying it all off.

I just want those big naguras, mine are not enough.

Aoto for 15 usd...

I would most assuredly be in the last pic carrying a bag or backpack.

Me would be more like pushing a good size cart.
