CARVING A SHIRASAYA EXPERIENCE

¥29,000

CRAFT A PLACE OF REST

The shirasaya means “white scabbbard” in Japanese. Each shirasaya is hand carved to a particular katana it’s meant to store when at rest. Made from aged magnolia wood to absorb moisture and seal out oxygen, it prevents rust without varnish. You’ll be guided through woodworking techniques used to carve a shirasaya, using authentic materials including 7-year aged wood.

Shirasaya masters are in high demand because of the need for their products. We’re extremely privileged to have access to our master craftsman.

Length: Approximately 2 hours.
