Great place to visit. At the moment they are rebuilding the visit center. But expect it to be open in 14 days. Great selection of blacksmiths and knifes. If possible ask for a tour of the factory... Enjoy
We came here by bus. A nice place to visit. We bought some handmade knife as a souvenir. A lady named Ms Modoka help and gave us a ride to go to the Washi Paper Village, which situated about 3 km from Takefu Knife Village. So if you plan to to Takefu Knife Village and Washi Paper Village, check the bus schedule or booked a taxi to commute between that place. Very peaceful surrounding. Opposite Takefu Knife Village is Manyo Village, a beautiful flower park where you can walk around. Recommended! 🤗
(Visits 3+) Unfortunately they are currently upgrading everything so this review is PRE-renovation. I have been here a few times. I did the knife making class nearly a decade ago and remember it being expensive but awesome. We bought some knives here for my chef brother-in-law and bring our Takefu knife here to get sharpened (about 700 yen). Awesome place.
Industrial shop with plenty of hand made knives for sale. I picked up an amazing paring knife for ¥5000 and got to meet the person who crafted it. It would appear that many of the artisans stop by the shop with their wares. It is definitely off the beaten track, but if you are anywhere in the area it is worth stopping by.
No shower, kitchen smell in the room and old authentic-like hotel
