He later trained with a master blacksmith in Kyoto, spending years perfecting his skills by studying ancient techniques and creating prototypes to fuse tradition with functional artistry. Each Kyokokaji Shoukei piece embodies his philosophy: to offer not only the beauty of craftsmanship but also the strength of a tool designed with purpose and history.
