My interest for Japanese culture starts from Katana sword, not just because they are one of the most aggressive and elegant weapon,the process of forging this weapon is fascinating and worth looking into.
This is a well made documentary of forging a katana sword by National Geographic: Forging a Katana
Not only it shows how to forge the most well-known weapon in Japan, the process represent Japanese culture, and their spirit in life.
