Myochin Munehiro forges swords that live in the modern age while inheriting tradition.

The birth of a single sword requires numerous processes and stillness of the heart.

Applying fire, striking the iron, shaping it, and breathing life into it. The beauty that captivates observers is the crystallization of accumulated handwork.

We will carefully introduce this process with photos and words.
