You can get this product from the link below! suigenkyo.store/products/match-whisk-white-bamboo-100-prongs?_pos=1&_sid=9b6119d43&_ss=r 10% off coupon "SUIGENKYO10" Product Name: Match Whisk / White Bamboo / 100 prongs Discription: This Matcha Whisk is made entirely by skillful Japanese craftsmen. Why don't you experience Japanese culture by making authentic matcha tea with a real Matcha Whisk? Number of prongs: 100 prongs ・Only 5 whisks can be made in a day! Although mass production is the norm in recent days, all matcha whisks are made by craftsmen, and they can only make about 5 tea whisks in a day. The process of making a tea whisk consists of splitting bamboo cut to about 10 cm in length into more than 100 pieces with a special blade, shaving it, and weaving the threads to complete the process. All of these processes are done by hand and fingers, without the use of machines. ・How to Select a Chasen In generally, a tea whisk with a small number of prongs is used for dark tea and a tea whisk with a large number of prongs is used for light tea. Therefore, you should choose a Chasen according to the tea you want to make!

We used to make these as children for fun! Bamboo stalks used to grow near the rail road tracks. The good ole days, if only we could go back.

Thank you very much. One of the most impressive transformations from simple object to beautiful and functional object. Goes back to time when everything you use was provided by very skilled members of your community, and making the best uses of what materials you have. Now people stuck at jobs they hate and just buy next plastic thing

[@Craftsmanship-Process]

It really is! Great products are created by crossing great secret arts with great materials. We will continue to do our best to carry on this technique.

[@smedleyx]

I occasionally drink ceremonial-grade matcha and wondered how they make the whisks. It's fitting they cost as much as professional watercolor brushes.

[@Craftsmanship-Process]

This is the ultimate tool of hospitality in the Japanese mind. Come back to Japan again to taste matcha tea! It will be a wonderful memory for sure!

I like how Japan still have a traditional way to make everything still. I can see how this has survived over 500 years. All they need is a few knives and their raw materials replenish overnight. It’d be a pretty sweet life. Beautiful Japanese village, you walk to the stream and cut bamboo that will grow back tomorrow, get back to the shop and do your part.

Fascinating video. If you ever want to do comedy could just add a quick line to step one when you measure after cutting that they are all the wrong size.

[@hibagon5919]

Chasen was made in the middle of the Muromachi period. It is said that the second son of the lord of Takayama Castle, Munetsugu, created it at the request of his best friend, Murata Jukoh.　The sound of cracking bamboo and mixing tea are pleasant sounds.

I have no idea why such a whisk is necessary, nor if it has any advantages over other such tools. However, the craftsmanship and dedication are impressive. Such fine cuts with a blade take an extremely steady hand to perform even a few times, and he does them many times that. I can only wonder at how much practice it must have taken to be able to do so many precise cuts without error.

I don’t understand why tea needs a whisk? I’ve never heard of that.

[@cheses.]

Matcha is made frothy. That's in a nutshell.

[@BlueCaesar13]

This is specifically for matcha, which is green tea that has been ground into a powder. The powder does not dissolve in water, so instead you need to whisk it (or something similar) to allow the matcha to suspend/integrate properly into the water.

[@apeman505]

I dunno, you have to go through all these steps just to make just one of these, and who still uses them in this day and age? Seems to me like a ... whisky business!!

[@leviathonlx]

This stuff tends to be dying off as they find it harder to find people to want to do such mundane and repetitive tasks over and over in the modern world where a machine can replicate this process perfectly. Stuff like this tends to be the equivalent of the hipster artisinal crafts in the west.

It’s a WHISK. The Japanese are really good at a lot of things including over-Inflating the importance of the most mundane objects. “I was an apprentice for over twenty years before I was considered a bona fide maker of wooden spatulas”.

[@Craftsmanship-Process]

It will take considerable time to become a full-fledged craftsman!

[@RipperRUS]

Культ времени.

[@lindamitchell-fox1926]

100% agree. It seems everything becomes an “art form” and takes a ridiculous amount of time to complete. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the skill and time for something handmade…but I’d probably always purchase commercial for the cost and not having to think my simple tools are “precious”.

[@thethirdchimpanzee]

​@@lindamitchell-fox1926Well I don't see why everything shouldn't be an art and a craft. Many things in Japanese culture and other Asian cultures are beautiful to look at and brings peace of mind to be around and loot at and inhabit. Utility *is* a good thing, and efficiency has it's place...but the diametrical opposite is the American culture, where EVERYTHING is cheap and disposable...and ugly. Most people, given the opportunity, would prefer to live in an old "quaint" Asian or European village, or a walkable American town.

[@mitchellpierce6233]

Your statement shows that you don't get it. It isn't about the object itself. It's about devoting your life to a craft and mastering it to its fullest potential. It's about giving yourself to that work and the personal drive to make perfection. I'm going to guess you have no real concept of what I'm talking about or what these people devote themselves to. That's a shame, and I hope that you can find your "whisk" one day. It can give an otherwise dreary life a bit of meaning, even if other people fail to recognize that.
