Over 60 Japanese Swords in gallery format covering 1000 years of technological development. The Yume Collection is a reference and educational guide into the world of Japanese swords. It takes years, if not a life time, to gain the necessary knowledge that helps collectors and practitioners appreciate the intricacies associated with these swords and to understand that as well as being a formidable weapon they are without any doubt marvels of engineering and artistic masterpieces. The eventual shape and structure of the Japanese sword, including the changes in their method of construction are invariably linked to the changes that took place in shaping the nation of Japan and the ethos of the Samurai warriors that wielded them.
