Using today’s technology, it takes a lot of energy to cut iron. But if we could find a way to cut
right through it with a blade, that would revolutionize manufacturing. Truly, that would be the
blade of our dreams. The competition this time is between an artisan whose skills are rooted
in traditional sword-making and FUKUDA, a team of engineers, representing a modern
company. Both will try to cut an iron pipe using a blade to demonstrate their skills. With their
professional pride on the line, these men will attempt to make that dream blade a reality. They’ll
be our guides as we explore the hidden spirit of Japanese manufacturing.
