Nihontou 日本刀 NomenclatureLabeling the main parts of the Katana (Japanese long sword) & Koshirae (sword furniture/fittings). I started taking video as a fun way to refresh my memory then ended up getting crazy w/ iMovie as usual, but now that it's done thought another person out there in YouTube land might find it helpful for learning/remembering the main parts of the katana and koshirae so here it is... Most the footage is of a real nihontou, seen here alongside an iaito (aluminum training sword).

Thanks for the comment and you're absolutely right about "same kawa" "same" is just ellipsis - Jaws is not on my tsuka :o) And you mean koshirae (こしらえ), not kashira (かしら - tsuka butt-cap), yes? Really just semantics here but the lit. translation (from koshiraeru 拵える-to make) doesn't work, and the lexical choices of English are vast, thus mountings, furniture or fittings can all be synonymously used for koshirae in this context. You say Tomato I say Tomato huh! Thanks again for watching.

Nice video but just two little corrections. The white that wraps around the handle, Tsuka, is "Same Kawa", (Shark skin). Only "Same" means it is a shark, as the whole animal itself. "Kashira" means sword fittings, not sword furniture as you listed it.Nice pieces, thanks for sharing this with us.
