This kind of Zhenxiu is now rated as a national treasure of Japan. Although it is not the top one, it is also a typical textile that can represent Japanese embroidery and silk development culture.
Because of the Japanese characteristics on them, these things became Jin Muchen’s trophies.
Three consecutive cases were taken by Jin Muchen.
But this is not the end. Next, there are more good things that Jin Muchen is going to collect, such as Japan’s most famous national treasure, the Japanese sword!
This Japanese sword is the pride of the Japanese, and it is also the most representative antique in Japan, and it can even be said that it is not one of them.
Although in the eyes of the Japanese, they are more fond of those porcelains with exquisite workmanship, such as the yao-changing Tianmu bowl, or the calligraphy and paintings left by famous Japanese historical figures.
But in fact, internationally, especially for those European and American collectors, the things that are really worth collecting in Japan are those sharp Japanese knives.
Because these knives are so distinctive, even those European and American people have compared Japanese knives with many European broad-mouthed epee and various famous Chinese knives in the cold weapon era.
And its sharpness and man-machine function are undoubtedly the best among the knives. Even those white Europeans and Americans who have always been proud have to admit that the Japanese knives are indeed the sharpest and most lethal weapons in the cold weapon era.
Even if such a conclusion will make many Chinese feel uncomfortable, the fact is the fact. After the verification of modern science, this Japanese sword born from the Chinese Tang sword is indeed sharper than our later Chinese cold weapons. The more, the more lethality on the battlefield.
Of course, this is only for a cold weapon such as a knife. If it is on the ancient battlefield, a Japanese knife is used. Against the last spear, the result was still the same.
These Japanese swords, which are respected by Europeans and Americans, are of course valued by the Japanese, and they are also rated as national treasures.
It’s just that they didn’t take these Japanese knives. Like the treasures in front of them, they are placed in the second exhibition hall, but in the fifth exhibition hall.
The fifth exhibition hall shows all the relics left by the Japanese soldiers in the cold weapon era.
It’s not just these gleaming Japanese swords. There are also many armors, but these armors are not famous compared to those Japanese swords.
Although the workmanship is very beautiful, in terms of the degree of cherishment, it is not high, and it cannot be compared with those Japanese swords.
Jin Muchen did not start with these cumbersome armors, but went straight to the exhibition area of those Japanese knives. After all, when he came to step on the plates a few days ago, he specially visited this exhibition area, and he also checked it carefully.
These Japanese knives were placed neatly at this time. Hall 5 is on the east wall.
Jin Muchen went straight to the east wall and came to the front of a Japanese sword, the name of this Japanese sword is Lidi Luodian Gold Decorative Sword!
Just by looking at the name, you can tell that this is not a sword that is practical on the battlefield, but a decorative sword, an ornamental sword, just like the Ju Yi Wen Zong that Jin Muchen had collected before!
But if this sword is famous, it is not inferior to that of Ju Yiwen Zezong.
Although it is not one of the five famous swords in Japan, all the swordsmiths in Japan dare to deny this sword’s status in the Japanese sword.
because of this sword. It can be said to be the ancestor of all Japanese swords.
And the reason why this is a treasured sword, not a treasured saber, is entirely because of the shape of the sword, with its straight body. It can be one meter in length, and the hilt is about twenty centimeters. The whole sword is thin and long. If we talk about the shape, it is very different from the Japanese swords of future generations.
This sword was made in the Heian period around the twelfth century. That is, more than 300 years after the Tang Dao of the Tang Dynasty was introduced to Japan.
At this time, most of the weapons used by the Japanese samurai were imitated Tang swords, and the real Japanese swords had not yet appeared at this time.
It had to wait until the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, and a large number of Song Dynasty craftsmen came to Japan, bringing more advanced smelting and sword casting techniques to Japan, and then adding the experience accumulated by the Japanese themselves in the war, it was gradually born. The famous Japanese sword of later generations came out.
And this pear ground luotian gold decorative sword has actually begun to gradually take the shape of the Japanese sword of later generations.
Although his shape still has the characteristics of the straightness of the Tang knife, but at the end, it has gradually begun to have the unique curvature of the Japanese knife. It can be said that it is a weapon made in Japan. A transitional product.
Therefore, in the eyes of many Japanese swordsmiths, although this decorative sword can only be used as a viewing device and a decorative device, its practical significance is not trivial. Breakthrough evolved into the first masterpiece of Japanese swords.
This sword has a link in the history of Japanese swords, and in the history of Japan, it is also very famous. It is precisely because of the extraordinary experience of this sword that it is rated as a national treasure among Japanese national treasures. .
In the Heian era, when high-ranking officials attended court ceremonies, not many people could wear weapons, not even the powerful ministers who had power over the court and the opposition. Only with the permission of the emperor, such favorite ministers could wear swords on their bodies. Moreover, most of them are decorative swords, and they must not be swords with real lethality.
And this sword was the saber of Fujiwara Mayu, the favorite minister of the emperor in the Nara era, and this Fujiwara Maya brother was the emperor’s favorite minister at that time, and he was also a famous figure in Japanese history.
The whole body of this sword is golden, and it looks rather splendid. This color alone already reflects the extraordinary status of the owner who wears this sword.
Moreover, the shape of this decorative sword also has strong Chinese characteristics. The hilt covered with shark skin, and the protruding part on both sides where the hilt and the blade meet, uses a scale hammer with obvious Chinese characteristics. It is a type of tandem, and features such as elongated metal trims are added to the scabbard and handle.
These characteristics are obvious characteristics of the Chinese Tang knife. These characteristics alone can prove that the origin of this knife definitely originated in China.
The ornaments on this sword use the traditional Japanese silver-plating technique for the bottom plate, and also use gold-plated high-relief and openwork to show slender branch chrysanthemum patterns. There are mountain-shaped metal trims.
Between each long metal ornament on the scabbard is a beautifully made ‘pear field’ as the base, and the Maki-e technique of very fine gold and silver powder and then painting and grinding is used on the pear ground to make these plow fields look like The effect is like the skin of a pear, and the pattern of a long-tailed bird is also made on the ploughed ground with the technique of luotian.
The workmanship of the entire sword can be said to be extremely cumbersome, but the effect is equally extraordinary. Such exquisite swords are rare even in Japan, which is famous for its sword casting. The unique Japanese style, but the Japanese have always been proud of the ‘was-like’ preference.
In later generations, although the Japanese swordsmiths have successively cast many treasured swords, there are only a few of them that can reach such a high level in terms of exquisite workmanship.
This is also the main reason why this ornamental decorative sword can stand out among the many famous swords produced in Japan later and be rated as a national treasure of Japan.
This sword has since been collected by the Hirohashi family, a descendant of the Fujiwara Kita family. It was not until the 1960s and 1970s when the then curator of the Tokyo National Museum personally went to the Hirohashi family to persuade him. The Hashi family lent the knife to the Tokyo National Museum for display, and it has been on loan to this day.
Of course, for this sword, the Tokyo National Museum has to pay a lot of rent to the Hirohashi family every year. They are not obliged to lend you such a sword for nothing.
In fact, many of the famous Japanese swords in this sword hall are actually borrowed from the Tokyo National Museum from those famous families in Japan.
Looking at this sword that combines Chinese elements and Japanese characteristics, Jin Muchen also felt ups and downs in his heart for a while, and finally calmed down, and then put the sword in his pocket.
Although it is a decorative sword, it is the ancestor of the Japanese sword after all, so this sword has an extraordinary position in the hearts of the Japanese.
Since it is the most beloved national treasure of the Japanese, of course there is no reason to let it continue to stay in Japan, it is necessary to take it away.
After putting away the treasured saber, and continuing to move forward, Jin Muchen soon stopped in front of a showcase.
In this showcase, there is a typical Japanese sword. This sword is not as splendid as the decorative sword just now, but it is air-conditioned. Even though the glass case is separated, Jin Muchen can feel it. The murderous aura emanating from the knife.
There is no doubt that ~www.readmtl.com~ This is a knife that has been on the battlefield and drank human blood.
And unlike the previous decorative sword, the shape of this sword is already a typical Japanese sword, the hilt is also an ordinary black wooden hilt, and the scabbard is also a black scabbard.
Just looking at the shape, it is difficult to see what material the handle and scabbard of this knife are made of, and there is no detailed introduction in the previous introduction.
The nameplate on the front of this Japanese sword is very brief: Taidao, inscribed three pieces, with a blade length of 80c and a sheath length of 85c. .
If you just look at the shape of this sword and the name of the sword, you may not realize anything, but if you know another name of this sword, I am afraid that many people who are familiar with Japanese swords cannot keep calm.
The Third Moon Sect is approaching! This is another name for this sword. This is one of the five most famous swords in the world in Japan!
