In July, I traveled to Japan with my associates. We had a super nice dinner in Osaka with Aoki-san from Sakai Takayuki, then traveled to Echizen to say hello with everyone there. After Echizen, we visited Sukenari in Toyama and finally drove to Sanjo to meet with Yoshikane, Hinoura and other suppliers there.
I documented the trip in a series of blogs, which is about the makers that we met, as well as some restaurants that we went to.
In the future, I will try to write more about varies of topics that is either Japan (and / or) knife related.
Hope you enjoy
Day 2: Echizen (Takefu)
Day 3: from Toyama to Sanjo
Day 4: from Sanjo to Tokyo
I also wrote a few smaller (buy maybe interesting, useful) topics as well:
Two things that you just have to try in Toyama
Side Mission: Grab that Bottle!
Where to buy Shigefusa in Japan?
and finally a tip if you are travelling to Japan
Don’t buy a JR Pass, it is a rip off
