福岡の博多包丁「大庭鍛冶工場」長く愛されるには理由がある #博多包丁

Operating as an agricultural blacksmith since the Taisho era, the workshop—now led by third-generation smith Toshio Oba (88)—continues to hand-forge "Hakata kitchen knives" (a style long cherished in Fukuoka households) using the warikomi (sandwich-style) forging method, crafting each one individually. Above all, Mr. Oba is the only craftsman in the country who produces the "dohyo-guwa" (sumo ring hoe)—an essential tool for constructing the dohyo (sumo ring). He is truly a precious figure who has upheld this aspect of Japanese traditional culture. In this video, we share the conversation we had with Mr. Oba. 【Table of Contents】 00:00 Introduction to this feature 01:16 About knife making 02:10 Mr. Oba at work 03:53 Mr. Oba's background 05:30 Information on blacksmiths in Kyushu 06:56 About knife steel materials 08:06 History of the workshop 08:46 Purchasing Hakata knives 09:29 Summary ▼ "Oba Blacksmith Workshop" Information Toshio Oba 3-9-21 Kiyokawa, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture 810-0005 TEL: 092-531-5625 On my channel ("Hōchō no Koto Arekore" / All About Kitchen Knives), I typically post videos covering everything related to kitchen knives, including product introductions, sharpening techniques, and information on whetstones. ▼ I would appreciate it if you subscribed to the channel:    / @foodmanage.knives   ▼ I operate an online shop where you can purchase knives: Hōchō-ya Togitokaji (BASE Shop) https://foodmanage.base.shop/ ▼ Here is the website for my business: https://foodmanage.amebaownd.com/ ▼ Here are some recommended past videos: [Sharpening a Custom-Made Knife] Sharpener Shotaro Nomura + Blacksmith Genkai Masakuni    • 【オーダー品の包丁研ぎ】研師 野村祥太郎+鍛治 玄海正国   Sharpener Shotaro Nomura Perfectly Sharpens a High-End "Genkai Masakuni" Knife!!    • 高級包丁【玄海正国】を 研ぎ師【野村祥太郎】が完璧に研ぎ上げる‼   What’s the 2024 Sakai Cutlery Festival Like?!
