 It takes about five minutes to get to the Knife Village by car from here. I had asked an artisan to sharpen my tools for woodblock. He called me after a few days , so I went to visit him to have my renewed ones. 

The scenery there was so beautiful too. I took a photo for my work on the day, but recently sketches seem to work much better for me, so I took a quick one, then tried it with ink on a sheet of paper made by one of the artisans here.
