    Kanagawa Kamakura-shi Onarimachi 13-29
    "This workshop, a three-minute walk from JR Kamakura Station, makes knives, blades, and ironwork crafts. During the Kamakura period, the great swordsmith Masamune created the Soshu tradition of sword making. Hiromasa, the fifth-generation inheritor of Masamune's sword smithing and head of the family, served the Odawara Hojo clan and, after being bestowed the name of ""tsuna"" from the second generation Hojo Ujitsuna, son of the founder of the clan, he took the name ""Tsunahiro."" Later, Tsunahiro became an official swordsmith for the mighty Tokugawa clan. The family continued to flourish as swordsmiths up until the start of the Meiji period and today is led by its 24th head. In the early Showa period, the family began making kitchen knives, shears, and other edged tools based on sword making techniques, as well as ironwork crafts."

Kanagawa Areas

around-area-map

Kanagawa prefecture acts as an extension of the Tokyo metropolis that spills over into coastal towns, most notably Yokohama city, heavily populated and known for its Chinatown and seaside attractions. Just the right distance for a day trip out of Tokyo, Kanagawa is home to some of Tokyo’s most accessible beaches, including around Kamakura, best known for its Big Buddha. Visitors can also travel a little farther afield for a weekend at Hakone onsen town.
