Field notes
The process guide names five stages, including cold forging with a belt hammer and heat treatment at 780–800°C. The site lists five material-based product series and sharpening from ¥1,400 including tax. Its access notes give nearby stations and warn that the maker may be out for lunch around noon; there is no on-site parking.
