Blessed with raw materials for pottery clay and glaze, this plan allows you to experience full-scale pottery in Tajimi, a historic pottery town.

We do not decide which works to make, and we will give careful guidance to each customer, both beginners and veterans, so that they can freely make what they like.

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.

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.

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.

A swordsmith will teach you the techniques of Japanese sword making and spend a whole day making a short sword with a blade length of less than 30 cm. During the experience, charcoal cutting, tamaheshi, tsutsubokashi, forging, unbending, fire making, soil placement, quenching, and blacksmith sharpening will be performed. The sword will then be registered and sharpened at a later date, and will be shipped to your home along with a registration certificate. If you select an option, you can also choose a Japanese sword such as a wakizashi (large) (small), katana, or tachi. Registration, packaging, and shipping fees are all included in the price. *Due to the Firearms and Swords Possession Control Act, the swordsmith will engrave the swordsmith's name on the sword. It is possible to engrave the participant's name as well. In addition, registration and sharpening are required, so it will take 6 to 9 months to deliver the sword. *The address, name, and phone number are required for the owner's details for the registration review and for shipping the finished product. If they are different from those registered with Activity Japan, please be sure to contact us here. If there is no contact, we will register and ship the sword as is. *If shipping overseas, please check for yourself whether the country can receive Japanese swords. In addition, export procedures, packaging fees, and shipping fees will be required separately. The amount varies depending on the country, so please contact us in advance. Payment will be made in cash on the day. *Damaged or scratched acrylic cases cannot be repaired, so please handle them carefully.

Japanese swords are works of art made of iron. By listening to the explanation of the production process of this work of art that has been handed down since ancient times, you will be able to understand the highlights of swords and the points to appreciate them. You can also observe the forging process (the process of stretching, bending, and gluing steel), which is one of the processes of making Japanese swords. Please take a photo of the sparks. The moment when the sparks fly is only for a moment. It may be difficult to show the process again, so please do not miss it. We recommend the video. In addition, you can experience using a large hammer to strike the iron. We will also accept questions such as why Japanese swords become such hard and strong blades, and why the price differs! If you apply for the "Small knife making experience" or "Kitchen knife making experience" at the same time, you will receive a half price. Please apply from the "Small knife making experience" or "Kitchen knife making experience" options.

[Rafting] Enjoy half the distance of the one-day rafting course. Typical rapids such as Sandan no Se, Crashikari no Se, and Enku no Se are waiting for you. The place you descend varies depending on the season and the course, but exciting rapids await you in a roughly 5km section. [Caving] Enjoy a regular half-day caving course.

Canyon tubing is a new water attraction that combines canyoning (down a stream) and tubing (down a river). You attach an outdoor tube to your buttocks and leisurely float through a beautiful valley with excellent transparency. Just floating around will give you negative ions and forest bathing. In shallow places, you walk while carrying the tube and move to the next healing point. At the last pool, which is the destination, you can enjoy diving into the pool using the tube. Diving with the tube attached to your buttocks is especially exciting compared to normal diving. Once you try it, you will definitely want to try it again and again. In addition, a mini version of the Tarzan Rope, a specialty of Tripper Canyoning, which is usually held, will also be available. Since the river is crystal clear, you can observe aquatic life by wearing goggles. You can play actively, or you can relax and be healed by the forest and river. Canyon tubing allows you to enjoy each way of enjoying it.
