Held annually in the fall by the All Japan Sword Traders Forum, the event draws many enthusiasts from both Japan and abroad. Thanks to the influence of games and anime, it has also recently attracted a growing number of younger fans and women. This influx has contributed to a vibrant and lively atmosphere at the exhibition.

該活動每年秋季由全日本刀劍貿易商論壇舉辦，吸引了來自日本和國外的眾多愛好者。由於遊戲和動漫的影響，它最近也吸引了越來越多的年輕粉絲和女性。人潮湧動，展會現場氣氛活躍、熱鬧。

Masterpieces and Sword Fittings

傑作和劍配件

The exhibition features an extensive collection of swords, primarily from the Edo period. However, the collection spans from the Heian period to the modern era. Among the impressive array, visitors will find swords designated as Important Cultural Properties. Additionally, it showcases stunning sword fittings, including scabbards and tsuba (handguards). Visitors will also find impressive armor and weaponry among the noteworthy highlights.

展覽展出了大量的劍，主要來自江戶時代。然而，收藏的時間跨度從平安時代一直到近代。在令人印象深刻的陣列中，遊客會發現被指定為重要文化財產的劍。此外，它還展示了令人驚嘆的劍配件，包括劍鞘和鍔（護手）。遊客還將在值得注意的亮點中發現令人印象深刻的盔甲和武器。

One of the exhibits is a breathtaking piece crafted in the early Edo period. It is a gold-lacquered scabbard adorned with a pear tree ground featuring scattered hollyhock designs and a cord-wrapped katana mount. The scabbard employs a technique known as nashiji, where countless flecks of gold dust shimmer beneath a transparent layer of lacquer, creating a stunning depth and delicate luster.

其中一件展品是江戶時代早期製作的令人驚嘆的作品。這是一把金漆刀鞘，刀鞘上飾有梨樹地面，上面有分散的蜀葵圖案，還有一個繩索纏繞的武士刀底座。刀鞘採用了一種被稱為「納許吉」的技術，透明的漆層下閃爍著無數的金粉斑點，營造出令人驚嘆的深度和細膩的光澤。

Its luxurious design features a three-leaf hollyhock crest applied across the entire surface using the kanagai technique. Kanagai involves affixing thin sheets of gold. Goto Yoshinobu, a prominent figure in the sword-making metalworking community of the early modern era, created this exquisite work. Yoshinobu also served the Tokugawa shogunate.

其奢華的設計採用 kanagai 技術在整個表面上塗上三葉蜀葵紋章。 Kanagai 涉及粘貼薄金片。後藤義信是近代鑄劍金屬加工界的傑出人物，他創作了這件精美的作品。慶信也曾為德川幕府服務。

Visitors can actually hold and appreciate these prized pieces from the sword traders, creating an irresistible experience for fans.

參觀者可以實際握持並欣賞這些刀劍商人的珍貴作品，為粉絲們創造了難以抗拒的體驗。

Hands-On Craftsmanship

手工藝

Live demonstrations of mei-kiri by contemporary swordsmiths will be featured alongside the onsite sales booths. Attendees can request engraving of their favorite kanji characters, just like the inscriptions on traditional blades. This popular annual highlight allows visitors to appreciate the artisans' craftsmanship up close. Participants can also transform the finished nameplate into a keychain or strap (participation requires a fee).

現場銷售攤位旁將有當代劍匠現場示範切刀。與會者可以要求雕刻他們最喜歡的漢字字符，就像傳統刀片上的銘文一樣。這個受歡迎的年度亮點讓遊客可以近距離欣賞工匠的手工藝。參與者也可以將完成的銘牌改造成鑰匙圈或吊帶（參與需付費）。

Experience the powerful strength of a weapon combined with the exquisite beauty of a fine art piece. Don’t miss this opportunity to immerse yourself in the diverse allure of swords. We hope to see you there!
