Fukube Kaji
A blacksmith forge that has been crafting tools to support people working in the satoyama and satoumi (rural landscapes) of Noto for over 100 years. Tools used in the rich natural environment of the Noto Peninsula are designed differently even within the same category, depending on their intended use for the sea or mountains. For the crucial part, Yasuki Steel Aogami is used to maintain sharpness, and local pine charcoal is used for quenching. Craftsmen continue to meticulously create these blacksmith tools, which are difficult to mass-produce, just as they have for generations.
