• Why not try making your own "Sennin's Chopsticks" made from the swaying wood of Yakusugi cedar? Our craftsmen will provide thorough instruction, so anyone from junior high school students to anyone who can hold a chisel can make them. The workshop takes approximately 50 minutes. The time varies depending on the day. Please make your reservation early as seating is limited.
• Authentic hand-finished
• No machines are used and everything is made by hand. The process involves splitting the Yakusugi cedar along the grain with a hatchet (kidori), shaving the tip with a chisel (kizuri), and polishing it with a grinder to give it a glossy finish.
• Making the most of the unique characteristics of Yakusugi
• Each pair of knives has a different curve and wood quality, so no matter how many pairs you make, it's always a new experience. You won't understand the joy until you try it. Please give it a try. Since the knives are made in the natural shape of the wood, they may be a little difficult to use, but that's part of their charm. Enjoy the difficulty of use and experience the charm of Yakusugi.
