Sakai City Traditional Crafts Museum

This facility showcases the allure of Sakai blades, featuring a permanent installation that outlines the production process and the different blade types (iron instruments and construction tools in addition to knives), as well as an area featuring the sales of instruments in numerous styles, including knives for industrial and home use.On the weekends, seasoned professionals offer presentations in the first-floor demonstration area showcasing the process of finalizing a knife (sharpening its edge). Those interested in attending are asked to call in advance. The museum also has a special service called the “blade clinic”, which takes queries on matters such as caring for one’s knives or scissors, and also offers repair services.
