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.

"Experience forging - a traditional craftsmanship" You can try hammering, filing with a gold rasp, sharpening and quenching processes. You might be excited to see how a piece of metal reborn as a knife. It is a great opportunity to experience a traditional craftsmanship.
This blacksmithing experience with Taro-san was one of the highlights of my trip. Taro-san was a very kind and knowledgeable teacher, and I really enjoyed my time there. Thank you for teaching us the Japanese way of blacksmithing! I look forward for any new classes you host in the future.

伝統技法の鍛金で、銅皿を作るプランです。切断機やガスバーナー、木づちなどを使うので、より職人に近づけたように感じます。制作中は安全性を意識しつつ、個別にしっかりアドバイスします。小物入れとして家に飾ったり、実際に食器として使うこともできる一品です。 * Courses may not be held due to unexpected events (natural disasters such as typhoons, sudden illness of instructors) etc. In that case, we will contact you by phone, e-mail etc before noon of the day. Please acknowledge it beforehand.
