Iron is a human invention. People have walked with iron, as it is said, "Whoever controls iron controls the world." A Japanese sword cannot be made good unless it is made of iron using the traditional ironmaking method. With this plan, you can experience making iron from iron sand using the traditional iron-making method. Repeat the work of cutting charcoal into small pieces and adding iron sand to determine the "steel" part from the finished lump "kera". You can take the finished product home with you. ★We have someone here who can explain things in English, so you don't need an interpreter.

You can make your own clay holder and add a blade crest. Attach the blade, cut your name on it, and sharpen it to complete it.

You can take photos and videos while working! The trial fee is for one Japanese knife. You can also make one book for two or more people.

You will spend a whole day making a small scale attached to the Japanese sword. The material is the same as the Japanese sword, and the world's highest grade iron (tamahagane) is used. You can make a soil holder by yourself and insert a blade crest. Attach the blade, cut your name on it, make a scabbard, and sharpen it to complete it. Only at our studio can you experience making a small pattern and sharpening it. You will learn how to make a Japanese sword while working, and you will not know until you experience the work of striking iron to change its shape and create ripples, so I think it will be a great learning experience. We will proceed according to the ability of the person who will experience it, so there is no need to worry about minors and women. Photos and videos can be taken during production! The fee will be the experience fee for one petite. Two or more people can make one. In that case, please let us know when you make a reservation. If you make a reservation for two or more, it will take about an additional hour for each one after the second one. Please join us with plenty of time before the end time.

日本刀の製作に興味があり数年前から体験できるところを探していましたが、コロナ禍でなかなか機会がありませんでした。 やっと規制緩和になったことから本格的に探して、刀匠正也さんで体験をさせていただくことになりました。 当日は雨になり、送り迎えをしていただけて本当に助かりました。 日本刀作りに関する知識はありましたが、やはり実際に説明を受けながら自分で工程を進めていく中で体験しないとわからないことがたくさんありました。繰り返しの作業や細かな細工(銘切りや焼き入れ、やすりがけや研ぎなど)への集中が求められ、根気とセンスが必要だと感じました。 体験前は一日の作業は長いと思っていましたが、あっという間に過ぎてしまいました。 とても丁寧にご指導いただき、ありがとうございました。
