I can only guess they implemented the smithing event because they were planning to do a bead event AND a regiment battle that both require koban to buy passes after you've run out of the free ones.

If you're like me, you're wanting all the swords from the regiment battle and I desire them much more than Kogarasumaru. I'd rather spend some resources now trying to smith him and save my koban for the regiment battle, just in case I fail miserable during the bead event like I did last time. ^^;

I'll be trying to save my koban for the regiment battle, which seems to require more as it only has drops, not rewards like the bead event (which is merely speculated, but the last bead event they were definitely rewards). We'll just have to wait and see~
