Overview
  • Get the privilege to enter a real knife factory, with over 100 years of history, where the raw blades arrive directly from the Blacksmith. Visit the Sharpening Station and the main office. Observe the blades being turned into proper handmade cooking knives. Learn and practice the traditional Sharpening techniques with a professional and get the chance to order your own customizable knife you can watch being made in front of you.
  • Pour la demande de guide francophone:
  • Nous ne pouvons pas garantir la francophonie pour un tour partagé, car mélangeant plusieurs nationalités, la priorité deviendra l'anglais.
  • Pour garantir la disponibilité du guide, veuillez nous contacter à l'avance. Merci pour votre compréhension.
  • IMPORTANT - 3RD TUESDAY
  • Every 3rd Tuesday of the month, the museum has an inventory and might close without notice on that day. In that case, your guide will take you directly to The knife company and include the history of cutlery while walking, and at the office. Thank you.
What to expect

Learn about the 400 years old origin story of the Traditional Japanese cinnamon mochi and receive one as a present. Chance to buy more if you want to.
