This weekend, we hosted the 4th monthly sword appreciation course and asked Myoga sensei to teach it. The amount of people that took part in the lecture slightly challenged our capacity, but we were delighted to see a lot of enthusiasts partake.
Many of the participants were beginners, but thanks to Myoga sensei’s pedagogical explanations, they were able to appreciate the 5 Juyo Token around which the lesson was focused.
After the lecture, we had some Bento and enjoyed talking with each other.
The Juyo Token swords we studied were;
1.Katana Mumei, but attributed to the Aoe tradition
2.Katana Mumei, but attributed to the Shizu tradition
3.Katana Mumei, but attributed to Motomitsu from Bizen
4.Katana by Tsuneie made in mid Muromachi period
5.Tanto the Aoe traditon
