Japanese swords are iron works of art. By listening to the explanation of the production process of the works of art that have been handed down from ancient times, you will be able to understand the highlights of swords and the points of appreciation. In addition, you can observe the training process (stretching, bending, and attaching steel), which is one of the processes of making Japanese swords. Please take a picture of the place where the spark sparks. The moment the spark scatters is an instant. Sometimes it is difficult to show the process again, so please do not miss it. We recommend the video. In addition, you can also experience the Ozuchi, which strikes iron. We also accept questions such as why Japanese swords are so hard and strong, and why there is a difference in price! If you apply for the "Knife making experience", you can apply at the same time for half price. Please apply from the option of "Knife making experience".

"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 was an excellent hands on experience making a small knife. Taro was very helpful in guiding us through the process and spoke excellent English. Definitely recommend taking the time to do the workshop.

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.

A swordsmith will teach you how to make Japanese knives using blacksmith techniques. Using the same material as Japanese swords, Tamahagane, the forged iron is shaped with a hammer. 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. Although it is a physically demanding job, the swordsmith will be happy to assist you, so don't worry if you are not confident in doing the heavy lifting, such as children or women. 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. In that case, please let us know how many people will be participating in the experience when making a reservation. If you are making a reservation for three or more, it will take a little longer. Please arrive with plenty of time to spare before the closing time. We may be able to move the start time forward, so please contact us.

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. It is also possible to advance the start time, so please contact us. ★We have someone here who can explain things in English, so you don't need an interpreter.
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。

All registration, packaging and shipping charges are included in the price.(only in Japan) *According to the Firearms and Swords Possession Law, the name of the swordsmith will be engraved by the swordsmith.
