Knife making in Japan

Hi all

Lewis , Trish and myself are in Japan for a little break.
One of the things on our list of things to do is, Make your own Samurai Knife with a Certified Swordsmith!

Today we meet Taro and had a great time making a knife. I will have the story and photos for you when we get back next week.
