Navštivte certifikovaného mečíře a vyrobte si vlastní samurajský nůž

真的非常推薦對鍛刀有興趣的人來體驗，於實於虛都會是一輩子的回憶寶物！ 🔨師傅/溝通： 不會日文沒關係，師傅會用翻譯軟體全程解說溝通，讓你了解鍛刀的流程；師傅非常親切、專業，情緒價值給很足，讓你不只學到很多也充滿成就感。 🔨體驗： 可能會看到我們做的刀型和其他旅客不太一樣，因為我們行前有另外寫email跟師傅溝通想要的刀型（後續我們回家要自己做刀柄），師傅也回覆沒問題，並在當天為我們準備了客製刀雛型，並且增加製作刀紋等步驟，參與完整流程把自己心目中的刀一步一步打造出來，心中真的無敵感動。（以上增加的行程是有跟師傅協議加價的） 🔨時間： 我們因為有2個人+額外加價行程，大約待了7個小時（含休息）；師傅都是一個人帶完換下一個，所以如果來的人是複數，要估一下時間可能會比網頁寫的需時再久一點點。

It was AMAZING! worth the long trip from Kyoto. Took all day so plan for that. Uses a translator device on his phone to talk to you, and hands you and egg like device you can speak into that communicates to him. My teen boys had a blast! P.s. this is the ONLY excursion I booked through KLOOK that I did not have a problem with locating the facility using Google directions with the address that I was given :)

Hospitality and kindness are two things that make the Japanese people great; the swordsmith at Hayamitsu is not only a master at his swords, he is a master of humanity. I showed up late due to being lost, but he nevertheless showed me a craft I've only seen portrayed in the movies, doing it with a patience I was so grateful for. If you're curious about making Japanese swords, please check this out. You won't regret it. :)

this was the best thing I did in my trip to Japan. the location is a very beautiful town, away from the busy cities. the sword maker is one of the few official sword makers of Japan. he showed us how the steel is forged to make Japanese swords. then provided steel molds to make our own knife. patiently Teaching us at each step. what better souvenir to take home than something you made with your own hands.

You owe it to yourself to book this experience. We were a party of three and he made us all feel inclusive in the experience. you'll learn a lot and do a lot as a part of making your own knife. While you won't be making your ow ln billet (it's not reasonable considering the time restraints) you will be making your knife and being very involved in the process from heating the metal and shaping it with a hammer and filing and polishing it. Hayamitsu sensei is patient, caring, helpful and encouraging all the way through. a thorough tier 1 experience. Also, my child of 10 years old also managed to make his own knife too with lots of guidance.

Kikyo Hayamitsu is a wonderful host and provided a great tour of sword smithing followed by an excellent guided exercise where you participate in heating and hammering out a knife, hardening it and finally polishing it. The language barrier is overcome by small handheld translators which work suprisingly well. Definitely a big highlight from our Japan trip and I cannot praise how nice Mr Hayamitsu was

An awesome experience for both myself and Patrick, the organisers were patient with our English, and made us feel special. The venue is a little bit out of the way but with the help of some friendly locals and a taxi we got there no problem! Not the cheapest experience but was one of the most special and ethnic we have done in Japan!

This was one of the best experiences I've had in Japan and would recommend it to everyone coming either to Kyoto or Osaka. It might seem far at first, but it is most definitely worth it. The swordsmith is incredibly nice and the whole session is very intimate and friendly. You get to witness the process of layering the steel, then you get to forge and refine your own knife. At the end, you can engrave it too for a personal touch.

This experience was absolutely amazing. We were 40 minutes early and he was so kind and welcoming and jumped right in. He was very kind and patient and funny. He went out of his way to make us feel comfortable. We learned so much about Japanese sword making and making our own knives was just a bonus. Would absolutely do this again whenever I make it back to Japan.

An absolutely amazing experience that we cannot recommend enough. An absolute highlight of our entire trip thanks to such an informative and engaging host and what a brilliant souvenir. Do yourself a favour and do not miss this opportunity
