Had a chance to go with some people but missed it. Very interesting. Thank you.

Just went there last week, the place was quite busy even during workdays.

 

Several pieces are only displayed for one month so the next month's lineup is going to be slightly different. Overall a very interesting exhibition, especially for those interested in the Yamashiro tradition.

Hi, just went today. Too many poeple . Many good swords. Plenty awataguchi, rai, some hasebe, shintogo kunimitsu, masamune tanto, some horikawa blades, bizen kanemitsu, fujishima tomoshige, sukehiro, inoue shinkai, Kanenori, masamine, higo, dotanuki, kunikane. Utsuri on some of them, perfect polish but one at the end rusted.

1500 yens fee and 2600 yens the heavy exhibition book. No photos inside......

Close the muséum, the nice Sanjusangendo.
