[2025 Echizen Shopping Mall] Travel Guide for Takefu Knife Village (Updated Mar)

✵ Fukui Prefecture 2024.02 ＼Recommended Spot in Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture／ I visited the beautiful mirror art at 'Takefu Knife Village,' which will make you wonder if it's really made of knives! This place actually has workshops and shops for 'Echizen Uchihamono,' a traditional craft of Echizen with a 700-year history! The knife-made objects each have different designs, and I was captivated by them💎✨ 📷Taken in February 2024 📍Takefu Knife Village, Fukui Prefecture 🚗About 30 minutes by car from Fukui Station

Takefu Knife Village is a place where Echizen Uchihamono, a knife with a history of 700 years, is manufactured and sold. Of course, you can buy knives, but it is a rare industrial tourism facility in Japan where you can watch blacksmiths and sharpeners at work for free! And the photo spot at the back of the store is recommended. Using a mirror, you can take a photo of countless knives pointing at you. It is not a very large facility, so you can look around quickly. #DomesticTravelRecord

Fukui is famous not only for glasses but also for knife making. This is a facility where you can watch craftsmen making knives for free. There is a shop at the entrance, and next to it is a little scary because there is a knife art exhibition. The factory is large and there is also a museum where you can learn about knife making in Fukui. I am always too scared to go near knives, so I really respect them😂 Craftsmanship is cool, isn't it😎 . . . 📍Takefu Knife Village 🗺️Fukui, Japan 🕑9:00-17:00 💰 – #FuriTabi #HokurikuTrip #Fukui
