Becoming a swordsmith in Japan takes a 5 year apprentiship, and there are only around 180 working smiths today.

He was inspired by a sword made by the legendary 13th century swordsmith Masamune. And after a 5 year apprenticeship and years of training he became one of the 180 sword smiths working across Japan.
