What you can expect

    1. Lecture (10 min)

    2. Factory Tour (15 min)
      Seki’s knife-making tradition is based on a division of labor.

You will see the entire process up close and can even hold samples from each stage to feel the differences.

      Experience the finished products firsthand. Seeing them after the factory tour will help you better appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail. If you wish, purchases can also be made on-site.
