After the fall of the last Samurai in Japan during the 1870s the Japanese remodeled their forces in the style of the first rate European militaries of the era. This included changing from the traditional Katana to the Western calvary saber.

But this wouldn’t last as in the 1930s as part of the rising nationalism in Japan their forces returned to their traditional designed sword.

Here’s Ian’s video on a mass produced Katana for the Imperial Army of Japan. [13:01] https://youtu.be/GGoQYELw1Eg?si=

    No there’s no restrictions on who can post. Or at least I didn’t intentionally set any. I’ve been posting 3+ times a day for a month hoping to get the community to a point where I don’t have to post every day to keep it alive.

    I’m the one guy on the fediverse who isn’t a programmer so I have no clue what the issue is you’re experiencing. Others have been able to post here. Maybe it’s a lemmy.zip issue? Maybe switching to a different instance could help.

    Hope you have a happy New Year too!
