This is the Kurogane Iron Workshop where master Hayashi-san has been making knives for over 20 years in Shimanto, Kochi. He'll explain the process in his workshop an talk about Japanese swords and kinves. You can actually work with him and make your own knife over 6 days, staying in a local bed & breakfast. A super unique experience.
