Hi Folks,
20 years ago, When I was a kid, my dad told me about the reduction of manpower of traditional trades due to the industrialization and modernization of Japanese society, traditional products started to become outdated and forgotten.
Today, I'm proud to be a Miyadaiku (carpenter) to build and repair traditional temples and shrines, when my dream has come true and my passion has been achieved. We want to spread this to the younger generation and glorify them as much as possible.

Discover Why Kishu Binchotan Charcoal Makes Our Food Taste Amazing
At Yakitori restaurant, we use Kishu Binchotan charcoal made by Yukami-san from Hidakagawa Town in Wakayama Prefecture. Kishu Binchotan charcoal has excellent heat, aroma, and stable burning properties, which are qualities not found in other charcoals, and we use them at our restaurant.
The key to the exquisite taste of our top-notch yakitori is Kishu Binchotan charcoal. We highly value Kishu Binchotan's ability to quickly finish cooking at high temperatures and make the skin crispy and delicious.
Its history is ancient, with the carbonization technique brought back from China by Kobo Daishi during the Heian period and spread throughout present-day Wakayama. In the Edo period, a charcoal merchant named Bitchuya Chozaemon from Tanabe in Kishu named it Binchotan after his hometown and his own name, and it was sold in Edo, which is how it got its name. About 1,200 tons of Kishu Binchotan charcoal are produced annually in Wakayama Prefecture.
In 1974, the traditional carbonization technique was designated an intangible cultural asset by the prefecture, Now, the Kishu Binchotan Charcoal Technology Preservation Society is responsible for passing on the techniques. The artisans were historically known as "charcoal burners," but today they are called "charcoal makers."
A young man inheriting the traditional methods of Kishu charcoal making, Kishu Charcoal maker: Akihiro Yukami. Continues the family business as a third-generation charcoal maker, using his father's workshop to produce Kishu Binchotan charcoal.
Kishu charcoal-making process
1. Felling
2. Wood preparation
3. Loading the kiln
4. Mouth burning
5. Carbonization
6. Refining
7. Unloading the kiln
8. Ash removal/sorting and packing

Thank you very much!
I cannot get over the AI voice- it's SO disconcerting and really pulls me out of the immersion of watching the video, especially with how glaring its pronunciation mistakes are.
why not just burn the wood instead of burning it to make charcoal
I mean, ask ANYONE who uses charcoal in a grill. Why does anyone use propane, or an electric grill? Every type of fuel has different characteristics. Charcoal normally burns longer than base wood, and binchotan especially has long-lasting burn time. It is also generally smokeless and odorless, which makes it ideal for showing off the flavors of what's being cooked on it. Charcoal is more compact and easier to use than large hunks of wood, and because it is primarily carbon it burns hotter than the base wood.
They are making it look like rocket science. 😅
ai voice. fake.

Always wondered about this proces in Japan. Thank you for the video!
❤❤❤❤
The translation is TERRIBLE. It'd have been nice to get someone who's knowledgeable about Japaneses Swords and fluent in English to intervene.
So incredibly beautiful.
His constant attention to detail by inspecting each step is a true sign of a craftsman.
Watching this from Japan in my old japanese house sitting on tatami is so satisfying.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
There are amazing craftspeople and then way above there are Japanese craftspeople !
unexcelled
Does Kumetsugu Ebisaki say..."Wax On, Wax Off"....
Sadly in my country that kind of bridge is almost illegal to build because of universal accessibility laws and regulations.
Amazing Bridge and amazing bridge builder💮 wonderful to see this preserved.
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice
Beautiful. But I am especially glad that they used wooden carpentry and not some other type of carpentry.
I spent 6 years in Iwakuni. Kintai was a favorite destination.
Wow so cool 😎 ❤
5h forest was destroyed
Not really. Japan had been coppicing cedar for about 700+ years.
Why does this narrator pronounce the “j” letters as a “y” sound??? This isn’t Spanish or other language that does that. Japanese pronounces the “j” as a “j”.
His overall grasp of Japanese pronunciation is pretty bad. It's so easy too, simple consistent rules. Cool bridge though.
@@mooseymoose agreed!
The japanese garden i volunteer at has a foot bridge made of wood reclaimed from this bridge when it was rebuilt.
My old man was a master carpenter back in the day. Growing up seeing what he could do with a relatively small (by today’s standards) collection of both hand tools and power tools, it is really baffling to see these social media guys yammering on with their wall-to-wall floor-to-ceiling gadget collections behind them. Especially looking at the 1980’s shop class level work most of them are making 40 minute videos about 😳
This is Stone Age in advanced Japan .
and there i thought wrapping the grip tape on road bike handlebars perfectly symetrically was an effort. is still is, though!
