In addition to sharpening, you will also be able to attach a handle at the end, so you can take home a sharp knife that is one of a kind in the world. We hope that you will not only learn about the charm of traditional Japanese knives, but also experience it for yourself. ~Experience flow~10:00 Notes/Explanation We will explain the precautions to take before the experience and the history of Japanese knives. 10:30 Sharpening experience You will experience sharpening. First, you will use a practice knife, and then you will actually sharpen the knife you purchased. 11:10 Handle attachment experience Attach a handle to the sharpened knife. Heat the core, fit the handle into it, and hit it with a wooden mallet to insert the handle. 11:40 Packaging The knife with the handle attached is packaged and handed over to the customer, and the experience is over.
