Rediscover Tours gives you a chance to know Japan in depth. We can arrange any kind of activity carefully selected by our team.

While staying in rural Kyoto, one of the best experiences is to visit Yuya Nakanishi, a real Japanese swordsmith.

In his forge you can make your own Japanese knife, learn how Katana are made and how to appreciate them. Watch the light reflecting on the blade, discover every detail carefully created by hand; first the Hamon or blade pattern; then the Hada or steel grain and finally the inscription, Mei in Japanese.

We hope this video made you want to learn more about Japan and that you will look at the katana with new eyes and communicate with its soul.
