Experience the Soul of the Sword-smith : Samurai Spirit in Seki

It was a good museum on the sword making process and history. We drove a rented car to venue but I don’t know how would anyone travel to this location. It was informative with video on sword making process But it’s a small museum.

Great experience. All staff and instructors were highly trained and I am impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of everyone. I was able to attend a samurai sword class and received a mini lesson. The museum was so informative and houses a large number of swords to admire and learn from it's history. Looking at the videos and observing the skilled sword forgers produce these incredibly beautiful swords contributed to having a most fulfilling experience while in Japan.

We spent a fantastic day with Hiroyasu exploring Seki including the Museum, an introduction to Iaido and a wonderful lunch at a local Tempura restaurant. As well as being a knowledgable guide both with ancient and modern local history, Hiroyasu also had a great sense of humour and a luxurious vehicle transporting us from site to site. I’m planning to return to Seki and Gifu with my son and will be absolutely taking advantage of Hiroyasu’s tour services!

Hiro Is a very interesting and enjoyable host. I went out of his way to make sure that I had the best possible time in Seki. He was very knowledgeable about the area, spoke great english, and was able answer all of my questions. After the tour, Hiro was able to give additional information for suggestions of things to do around the city, as well as for the rest of my trip in Japan. I felt like he genuinely cared about making me have the best experience possible. Highly recommend.

Amazing experience and friendly hosts with detailed explanation on the topic. Very interesting :) Would definitely recommend to experience!
