Media appearance information (RCC Radio)

[Media appearance information]
I appeared on RCC Radio's popular afternoon program "Hiroshi Michimori's Barishaki NOW"! I never dreamed that the day would come when I would step into the RCC studio. By the way, although he has not come out yet, announcer Michimori is a senior at his university (Kwansei Gakuin University).
The theme is "Japanese knives that attract the attention of the world." Based on past experiences and examples, we introduced the appeal of Japanese knives, which are so obvious to Japanese people that they don't notice, from a foreigner's perspective.
My heart was pounding as it was my first live broadcast, but I was able to enjoy the conversation with announcer Michimori and Mr. Fujita's light-hearted talk. As expected of a professional speaker. I was very impressed with his quick wit, his skill in counterattacking, and his ability to follow up.
I have something like a simple progress chart, but once the game starts, I don't have time to look at it... Finally, the time was up and I was asked to "please come again." But will there really be a next time? ? Look forward to it♪

I visited Miyazaki Blacksmith's workshop in Goto, Nagasaki Prefecture. I have been in contact with the representative, Haruo Miyazaki, for about two years, and I was finally able to meet him. We would like to take this opportunity to introduce you as our new business partner.

Mr. Miyazaki is well-known for his Hakata knives, and was trained as a blacksmith at the Oba Blacksmith Factory in Fukuoka City, and his knives are popular overseas as well. He is particular about making handmade knives, such as honwarikiri, which takes a lot of time and effort, but he is able to make high-quality knives that are truly flavorful.

We have already placed orders, and the first batch of products is scheduled to be completed this winter.
