Found and read this piece from @outsidemag.bsky.social while I was on vacation, and man was it worth the time. Give this lovely essay from @kevinchroust.bsky.social a read: www.outsideonline.com/culture/essa...
My Grandfather Brought a Mysterious Sword Home from WWII Japan. Eighty Years Later, I Returned It.
When I was a kid, I was fascinated by a traditional katana my grandfather had brought home from Japan in 1945. Years later, I decided it was time to find the heirloom’s rightful owner.
