Noguchi Kajiten (野口鍛冶店) is a traditional Japanese blacksmith shop founded in 1887 (Meiji 20) in Kuki City, Saitama Prefecture. Established and passed down through the Noguchi family, the forge is currently operated by the fourth generation, continuing to hand-craft agricultural tools such as sickles and hoes using traditional smithing techniques. Today, Noguchi Kajiten remains a small, family-run workshop focused on durability, practicality, and meeting the real needs of farmers and gardeners.
