The 9th Sendai Token Ichi was held for three days from Friday, August 28, at Yume Messe Miyagi, a convention center in Miyagi Prefecture. This time, we introduced swordsmith Norizane Miyagi, who lives in Shiroishi City, Miyagi Prefecture. This also led the Kahoku Shimpo, a local newspaper with approximately a 70% share of newspaper readership in the area, to cover the event for the first time, and an article about the event was published. The newspaper coverage had a significant impact, bringing even more visitors and making the event especially lively. With each Sendai Token Ichi, we have become more familiar with local Japanese sword enthusiasts, and once again, we were able to deepen our relationships with them. It was a very fulfilling three days.
