I always talk of France and Italy being cultural cousins; because it’s true. Really, I provide you with so many examples. But lately I’ve been writing about the Piemontese and Italians, in general, how detail oriented they are. And it’s true and i’ll be providing you with many examples soon.
However, when I was trimming my topiary the other day, I was thinking about the Japanese and how fanatical they are about details. Like their Katana, a Japanese sword, used by the Samurai, once upon a time considered the finest cutting weapons in the world military history.
My guy has one. It’s a work of art. I cleaned it once and then held it and did some poses, I could have sworn I felt the soul of a samurai. Here’s some photos, think they’re from Prague, you can se the glistening, elegant waves on the blade.
