Theres something beautiful in watching a person do something with so much passion because you know they aren't forced to do what they are doing. It comes from withing. The drive, the sincerity and the joy of outcome can make even the most uninterested person smile.
I am extremely grateful for the creative inspiration. I binge watch for inspiration. Please don't stop making these videos. Thank you to all who were part of there videos.
Someone forgot to add captions at 40:06. Here is what he says: Toshitsugu: "It must be kneaded and placed in the mold immediately, while it is still soft and well kneaded inside. If it takes longer, only the outside will be stiffened. The outside will be dried out, and the inside will not be well kneaded. So I must hurry up a little."
I think the most important thing about this video is that it's the skills of humans who can make it perfect. In a world where we see technology take away so many jobs, technology can never take away the skills and experience that people have in everything we do.
Fabulous , I’m so lucky to have a pair of scissors hand made by Cliff at Earnest Wright , worth every penny . Cliff has now retired but goes into the workshop often . I consider my scissors which I use for fabric cutting to be an heirloom . British made to last a lifetime .
Listing the names of the artisans in the timestamps would be much appreciated (alongside their individual profession/skill/task). This would allow those interested in seeking products/services from these highly specialized artisans a chance to contact them.
I‘m not surprised non of the masters comes from Germany. This country literally lost all its culture in crafts. I admire Japan for its culture which is still alive.
Thats such an ignorant message. Watchmaking, Food, Architecture, Porcellaine, Gold and Silver-Craftsmanship, Traditional dressmaking, etc. etc. Just because a business insider Video without the integration of german craftsmanship, approves your uninformed self, doesnt necessarily mean that we germans have no beautiful craftsmanship anymore.
I started training in martial arts at 12, entered the military at 17 with parental consent, then was accepted into the Special Forces after 2 years. Upon discharge became a martial arts / weapons instructor, and trained Police and security forces in Urban combat. I love watching true masters who exert the passion, and dedicate the better part of their lives to perfecting a set of skills. 😊👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Beautiful presentation, I wish some of them were longer. I fear that slowly but surely all these precious specialties will disappear...they already are. It makes one wonder to what degree technology and high speed manufacturing are really a benefit.
my dad bought an expensive knife for his first kitchen. With proper care that knife is still used daily after 30 years. Less waste, and the cost evens out.
And please don't forget, it takes 4 years to wash rice properly before the sushi chef is allowed to touch fish. We LOVE tradition. And at its helm the "gods" who want to protect the mystery and abuse (of the apprentice).
Because my feet are so tiny as an adult female I have had to go find a shoe maker just to make shoes that fit my feet. The only other option is going to the kids' section and hoping to find shoes that aren't immature-looking and designed for kids. I appreciate and admire those who make shoes and it's worth the price for "custom-made" shoes. I also use the calligraphy ink sticks shown. It produces a far superior ink in my opinion. I never knew so much work went into making such beautiful ink sticks.
First of all Thank you for bringing us such God given talents!!!! But, sadly like almost everything around us these days, THIS unique skills are dying out!😢 We're left with mass produced cheap products that don't last a month!!! How frighteningly sad is that for our future!!!😱
Long video had to take an over night break, back again. Except for the one lady there who developed the silk, all these people trained under someone. The absolute genius that is the human mind, which actually figured out by inspiration, trial and error to invent and or devise all these methods and materials.
one of the things I learnt recently was why American butter is white while most of the world has yellow butter. Apparently if the cows don't get to eat grass, the butter will be white! It looks so creamy there, being rolled through again and again, bringing it to fruition.
I don't doubt it. I come from a heavily dairy-based country, so I have a sneaking suspicion any company that tried it here would be promptly run out of business, but even then that's just a suspicion, not a known quantity.
I'm sorry but that wasn't Damascus steel. That was patterned welded steel. Damascus Steel is quite special in it's makeup. Only one person has been able to make it in recent times and even then it couldn't be done reliably. The process is crazy hard. You need glass, leaves from a tree, a very specific temperature and Iron with a specific make up. So no this isn't Damascus Steel. Doesn't take away from it's beauty nor it's sharpness though but let's call it what it really is, Pattern welded steel.
Why do you think they're horrible? Except for the bagel maker, these are people who perpetuate traditions that are centuries old and take pride in their work. How many of these skills can you perform?
@@Gertyutz sorry this was supposed to be for another post. The comment didn't make it. It made it to this post instead. Correction on my part. Your right. This is beautiful ❤️
Sadly, the world is losing the skills to do these jobs and tasks. Master craftsmen have not been teaching other craftsmen to do top notch work. This is why so many things are no longer done well nor beautifully.
He used machines and commercial yeast for the baguettes so not artisan. Probably very good but not the art it once was. There are bakeries that make artisan baguettes.
When he said Caitlyn Jenner was the same I don't think he was thinking Caitlin I think he was thinking one of the two other ones that are Kaitlin's daughters. I don't think that a trans woman is a woman at all but when she asks the question I think it was Beyoncé and Caitlyn Jenner were both women, my first thought was yeah, they are, until you gave your, ugh, and said he was going back on what he said, but now he's saying Kaitlyn Jenner is the same. That was when I realized that she had said Kaitlin. I personally think he did the same thing I did.
LOL the "master blacksmith" in the very first clip is doing it wrong. Heat treating is the LAST step in forging a blade. Hammering comes LONG before heat treating.
I cant help but think of the health issues a lot of these folks sacrifice for their craft. no doubt alot of these flks have bad back or neck pain and other ailments like carpal tunell.
Bro !!! if you're the one and only detail artist for Rolls-Royce I'm sure you make a pretty bundle take some time out to go to the dentist fix all your teeth

I guess that's the purpose in life.. To find a work you really love to do, NOT primarily motivated by money, but out of LOVE..
Right.. It's like a form of meditation..
what does an overlord do at the bureau?
I'm so happy to see my profession get recognized in this!! I'm an instrument repair tech, and I love what I do!
Who would have thought Japan and England would have such important and amazing skills and traits in common. It is wonderful to see.
I thought it's a well known fact about Japanese and English craft?

Always cool to see masters at work
Fabulous , I’m so lucky to have a pair of scissors hand made by Cliff at Earnest Wright , worth every penny . Cliff has now retired but goes into the workshop often . I consider my scissors which I use for fabric cutting to be an heirloom . British made to last a lifetime .
Business Insider, please do an episode with UK, German, and Japanese scissor makers visiting each other’s forges.
I really enjoyed watching this and the expertise it takes to do ones job of choice. Could watch for hrs.
Learn to master your skill and you can be special.
I know more about brushes than I anticipated at the end of this awesome vid!
As a woodworker and carver I apprieate this.
Listing the names of the artisans in the timestamps would be much appreciated (alongside their individual profession/skill/task). This would allow those interested in seeking products/services from these highly specialized artisans a chance to contact them.
the french baguette baker. that intense passion is enjoyable to watch.
I‘m not surprised non of the masters comes from Germany. This country literally lost all its culture in crafts.
I admire Japan for its culture which is still alive.
You forget France as well
And many over country to ...
Thats such an ignorant message.

Thank you for this documentary. It is so refreshing. The music is beautiful also.
Fascinating to see skilled workmen and women from all over the world , thank you for sharing.💯♥️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Love this video thank you for putting it together
japan has the most master skilled workers
@@matilda628 no is it on youtube? I cant wait to visit japan some day and soak up some of their amazing culture
True! They are not only workers they are skilled Craftman in their own right. Many of them following traditions
No words
Beautiful presentation, I wish some of them were longer. I fear that slowly but surely all these precious specialties will disappear...they already are. It makes one wonder to what degree technology and high speed manufacturing are really a benefit.
Uplifting to see people produce something else as minimal viable products.
humans are amazing
Anyone else gipping looking at the fugu fish heart beating on the table 13:18
It is sad that the most skillful jobs may disappear once the old master passed.
Thought of the sams thing 😢
What we have lost by now far outweigh what we have gained.
I am very pleased to know that even professional baguette bakers slap the dough
As always, you create excellent videos that are full of interesting information and are a pleasure to watch. Great job!👍
Wonderfully ASMRish, thank you 🤗
Quite fascinating!

I learned so much! Wow, amazing dedication these people have
I love that this new product (lotus silk) is being made from stems that would otherwise be discarded.
Perfect video

And the future of environnement, most of this craft respect the planet we live on

@@themustar601 they weren’t there originally
You ever heard of manners?
Go ahead, add them. You can copy and paste from the drop-down description.
This guy is a legend, straight to the point
What turns this good documentary onto a wobbly table is the omission of the prices
Killing Greenland sharks is terrible. They can live for hundreds of years

It looks so creamy there, being rolled through again and again, bringing it to fruition.
Lots of companies add yellow coloring to try and get the same look so you can't always judge the quality by it's color.
I don't doubt it. I come from a heavily dairy-based country, so I have a sneaking suspicion any company that tried it here would be promptly run out of business, but even then that's just a suspicion, not a known quantity.
Great compilation of artisans. Some were a bit short. The bit about the French baguette was incredibly long and windy.
yall missed the captions for the ink maker
where to buy that authentic japanese knife?
Did you search the web?

Good morning Matt and fixin family hope you have a great day is beautiful outside in Massachusetts

beautiful.
30:43 - Kolinsky sable brush maker - for artists
I don't think I've ever seen anyone go deep into bread like that french baker.
His 20 yrs ahead of everyone in the world..
But why.. 😮
Beautiful ❤️

This video should be called Patience😳
Have you seen the bubbles?
When does anything in Japan not take decades to master, cmon even washing sushi rice takes 5yrs to master lol
Me: Masterclass please?
Masters: Here you go!
Missing CC from the Ink maker
I can coach line taught myself and you have to keep doing it as it’s easy to mess up and I can’t do it if I’ve had a coffee makes me shake lol
the poisonous parts of the pufferfish is just every internal organ
Doesn't feel like making bread and bonsai belong in the same list though
I would love to own one of those japanese knives, but they are probably +$2,000.
Kolhapuri chappal also handmade and world famous and Skillfully made
Yashiyukis 20 year old magical brush☠️
Sadly, the world is losing the skills to do these jobs and tasks. Master craftsmen have not been teaching other craftsmen to do top notch work. This is why so many things are no longer done well nor beautifully.
I like Business Insider videos but it's a bit weird to jump from Lotus Silk to Rolls Royce to Fugu..
1:17:05 Lol "there are days where it's -10 to -20 maybe". Bro try -40 or -50
some guy eats pufferfish, he collapses, he's pronounced dead, they put him on a slab in the morgue and he comes about days later..
I knew at the start that most of these would be in Japan 😂
They have a high regard for tradition.
*I went on a trip to Japan and spent $15,000 on dining and hotels in 8 days. The only place more expensive is Tahiti! Traveler beware (Or be rich).*
8 out the 21 skilled artisans are Japanese or 38 percent😲
4:28 bro said highly controlled that shit looks like neopolitan icecream buckets on some walmart shelves
Maybe the admin is from Paris, France.
@13:35 I feel you pain
Oysters getting in vitro fertilization 🧐😲
It's not fertilization, which is connected to reproduction.
He used machines and commercial yeast for the baguettes so not artisan. Probably very good but not the art it once was. There are bakeries that make artisan baguettes.
These are the last people to hold on their job when AI takes over.
No subtitles for the ink master :(
nah, seen them all already
When he said Caitlyn Jenner was the same I don't think he was thinking Caitlin I think he was thinking one of the two other ones that are Kaitlin's daughters.

And how many knives did you make, mr keyboard warrior?!
Hopefully the squirrel hairs are volunteered by the resident squirrel, who lives at Rolls Royce in a Pent House Tree, in the lap of luxury.
The guy in the bagel clip loves the sound of his voice... dude needs to calm down
Doesent durability fit in the same category as strength or does the knife give u a 4% strength boost??☠️
Is 50yrs teenagers???
Who is narrating this?

"Tears gonads..." c'mon maaaaan
I cant help but think of the health issues a lot of these folks sacrifice for their craft. no doubt alot of these flks have bad back or neck pain and other ailments like carpal tunell.
But making this isn't easy...
how? no thanks to your advanced computer technology
Bro !!! if you're the one and only detail artist for Rolls-Royce I'm sure you make a pretty bundle take some time out to go to the dentist fix all your teeth
The intro is spoken as if the voice actor does not belong to the human race
