Fukui's traditional craft "Echizen cutlery". One of the characteristics of Echizen cutlery, which is attracting attention not only in Japan but also from overseas, is the sharpness created by craftsmen. The tour will visit two workshops: Yamaken Mokkojo, which specializes in making Echizen cutlery handles, which are rare even in Japan, and Ryusen Hamono, which makes knives with beautiful unique ripple patterns.

The first is Yamaken Mokkojo, which specializes in making handles for Japanese knives, which is rare even in Japan. This time, we will also visit the factory and the gallery next to it, "Kara to Etoe". Kara to Ei is the only store in Japan that specializes in Japanese knife handles. Here, you can see the lineup that only a shop run by Yamaken Woodworking Shop can offer.
