The reason is that this profession is so abnormal that the Japanese country has no shame in publicizing it to the outside world.

The job of a knife tester is actually to use the most professional techniques to test whether a knife is sharp enough.

It doesn't sound special at first, but the problem is that the "knife table" they used for testing is not the straw mat that is common in later generations, but human corpses.

The Japanese sword is often said to be "several cuts", which refers to how many corpses can be cut off with one sword when testing it.

A qualified Japanese sword must reach at least "one sword", and an excellent one must be "two swords". If it reaches "three swords", it will be included in the category of treasured swords and be called "karma".

On top of it there are the "Great Property" and the "Supreme Great Property".

Many people confuse sword testers with executioners.

Indeed, in order to help samurai test the performance of swords, sword testers would often do the work of executioners, but they actually looked down upon the executioner's remuneration.

You know, the cost of a trial of beheading is at least ten times the executioner's income.

Do you think the job of a knife tester ends here? That can only mean that your pattern is broken.

In addition to using people to test knives, knife testers also sell medicine part-time.

However, what they sell is not ordinary medicine, but "Rendan Pills" made from a mixture of human liver, brain plasma, gallbladder, etc. In ancient times when medicine was underdeveloped, it was regarded as a miracle medicine for treating lung diseases by the people at the bottom.

It is said that the price of one "rendan pill" can be equal to the monthly income of an ordinary person.

The original work of "Hell Music" only focuses on the decapitation work of the "Yamada Asaemon" clan, but uses Spring and Autumn style for testing knives and selling medicine. Obviously, he knows that this profession is disgraceful, and only does it for the rationality of the plot.

Can be beautified a little bit.

Just like domestic martial arts movies always set eunuchs from the East and West Factory as martial arts masters.

"Hey, this is the Yamada family, if you have nothing to do, don't linger in front of the door!"

Seeing Luo Jie standing at the door for a long time without moving, a doorman with a knife came forward and shouted loudly.

Luo Jie bowed politely and put a small piece of gold broken off from the gold coin into the doorman's hand without leaving any trace.
