Kyoto photographer Kosuke Okuda and I teamed up to do an article for the Russian travel magazine Afisha Mir (Афиша-Мир). I just got a PDF of the article — hot off the server!
In the article I introduced the long history of Aritsugu which was founded in 1560. Aritsugu is one of the most famous makers of traditional Japanese knives and they are found in good kitchens all over Japan. We focused on the special eel bone cutting ‘honegiri’ knife that is used for the traditional Kyoto summer delicacy of ‘hamo’ pike eel. The knife is over 40 cm long, weighs more that 500 gm and costs more than $1,000 USD!
I wrote it, but I can’t read it!!

In Nanzenji Temple in Kyoto, there is a Romanesque aqueduct, which has a very solemn feeling. I like this place very much and often visit there and enjoy observing the passing of seasons and the tourists exploring the temple. I took this photo of a couple from overseas and seeing them in this red brick structure made me feel like I was not in Japan.
