Pierre Nadeau in Hir@gana Times
A friend of mine from Canada, Pierre Nadeau, who lives down in Wakayama and is currently apprenticed to the Japanese sword smith Kiyota Jirokunietsu has been featured in the February issue of the Hir@gana Times. It is a nice three page article with plenty of detail and insight into the life of a Japanese sword-smith’s apprentice.
Hir@gana Times is an English-Japanese bilingual monthly magazine published here in Japan. It costs 390 yen an issue and is available from all good bookstores. One great thing about the magazine is, if you are learning Japanese, the articles are translated into Japanese, and they have furigana (kanji readings), so it is a good way to develop your Japanese language skills.
Subscription information for the Hir@gana Times is available here.
