▶Craftsman Profile
Chiaki Aikawa / Aikawa Engraving Studio
Chiaki Aikawa's main products are accessories and Kiseru. Since the technique cannot be mass-produced by machines, each item is carefully crafted one by one.
I also specialize in a technique called Mokume-Gane, in which different metals are layered and melted together to create a pattern by repeatedly beating and carving.
▶Craftsman Passion
"For smokers around the world"
I produce smoking pipes for smokers all over the world to enhance the taste of their cigarettes.
I would like to share the chic Japanese smoking culture with the world with my smoking pipes made with traditional techniques. Please enjoy the beauty of the slowly rising smoke!
Please enjoy watching the Japanese craftsmanship!!!!

Product Name: Pure Silver Twisted Kiseru Smoking Pipe / Hassun
Discription: This is a sterling silver reinsmith style smoking pipe with a motif of a yokozuna's (Yokozuna is the highest rank of sumo wrestler / Champion) ornamental mawashi (Mawashi is the loincloth that sumo wrestlers wear) and a temple rope.
The shape is one of the most historic and prestigious of all smoking pipes / Kiseru.
It is made by a traditional Japanese technique of hammered out from a single sheet of plate with a chisel and hammer.
The final pipe looks nothing like the one the craftsmen made.
Was thinking it would be around that much. A lot of work, amazing design and skill.
Pencil eraser metal and pen cap lol
Dude, 1,600? That's absolutely not worth that, not even if it was pressed by the hands of the Lord himself.
@@rabbithedragonsome people appreciate craftsmanship..
That was unreal. Wasn't really sure where it was going towards the end, but the final reveal blew my mind. Clever way for sandblasting the surface.
It sand blew my mind a bit. 😮
Thank you for your comment !
GOOD 👍 JOB ❤
Beautiful work. As a leathercrafter, it never ceases to amaze me how many techniques are similar between crafting mediums, and how much is very different. The "sanding" at the end was a beautifully simple technique that I would have never thought of!
I've always had mad respect for Japanese craftsmanship.
This man put his Soul into making this. Amazing artistry and craftsmanship!
I can't believe I sat through this whole video. Fascinating craftmanship, and mesmerizing to watch the process. Great upload!
昔の人もこうやって作っていたのかな。
感慨深いものがありますね。
この技術は後世に残してほしい。
素晴らしいです。
ご視聴、コメントありがとうございます!
I wondered the same thing. Were people smoking this style of pipe before tobacco came to Japan?
Before WW2 a fair amount of Japanese farmers smoked the uhh buds of female 'hemp' plants, but it's not widely known @@tstodgell

タバコの伝来と共にパイプが伝わり、このキセル、パイプを使用した喫煙が用いられましたよ
An absolute work of functional art. I was completely mesmerized. Thank you.
I absolutely love the old fashioned way of creating with our hands that which we can. Great job
Thank you very much!
A lifetime of skill and knowledge, pure craftsmanship ❤️👍
Despite all the effort to finish and polish it, I preferred it in it's more raw, hand-hammered appearance. You could see the amount of human effort that had gone into making it.
Ironically, all that work and by the end it was so perfect it looked like it had been made by machine!
Thank you for your comment !
That’s why I assumed
He was hand hammering. For the finish. I mean he had the heat, wasn’t cold forged. Maybe he doesn’t own a roller.
すばらしい技術です!
Oh my ! What a piece. The rhythm of the hammers, the attention to detail, and an absolutely stunning end result.
I don't quite understand why he used so much cold hammering. Wouldn't it have been easier to heat up?
Or also, why not just pour the initial smelt into a flatter, longer mold closer to the finished product of all that hammering. I'm sure the answer is that the hammering does something very special to it, same with the heat vs cold.
I'd say it's likely a matter of tradition and a process handed down via ancestry. Some people work for efficiency but, some people work because the art compels them to.
Wonderful craftsmanship
Gorgeous. Phenomenal craftsmanship, real passion, and heart put into creating this piece.
Thank you for the comment !
That's freaking amazing result. All that craftsmanship 😳
I like his anvil setup. What an awesome craftsman.
I almost cried at the final reveal. Beautiful craftsmanship
I got misty too...
Thank you for the comment !
This is what I love about Japanese culture. Everything they have ever done is done with patience, precision, and masterful skill. For the world I hope they and all with these skills and traditions stay alive forever.
Even what they did in Manchuria?
@@benwilms3942 especially what they did in Manchuria
@annihilation777 boom. You have a point I suppose.
Really cool. It’s so good to see masters in their craft. The world we live in has gotten away from that kind of thing so much. Everyone wants mass production but I think some of us are slowly realizing that we need these craftsmanship. Thanks for showing us
Not so, I am 57 and after a severe work injury offshore I now make jewellery. I smelt my own metal and work in gold and silver. With the utmost respect most competent smiths could produce this pipe. It's never too late to learn a skill/skills.👍🏴
Thank You for your comment ! Glad you liked the video !
A master class from a craftsman 😊
This is the quintessence of luxury: Mystifying and complicating the production of an object to such an extent that this object is sold for extremely high amounts of money, even though one could make this object in just a few minutes... 🤪⚡
Watching him hammer that made me flinch so bad, the pure precision and art of this man
Can you imagine how many times through our his career has he smashed his thumb or index finger?? Omg! That's a painful craft lol.
Im totally blown away at the skill and patience of this craftsman. He is truly a master!!!
Simplemente gracias por tan bello poema creado con sus manos.
I didn't even knew that something like that exists. Thank you for the very interesting documentations about Japanese craftmanship.
Wow. Beautiful. Amazing stopwatch
Thank you
Absolutely mezmorizing. Beautiful piece.
Unbelievable handmade item!
Respect 🫡
Thank you very much!
I wish there was a channel dedicated to teaching the different crafts. I know in japan some of the cloisonne recipes have been lost due to the secrative nature of craftsmen in general. It is beautiful to watch these crafts but more interesting to take up as a hobby.
Sou fã de artesanato,esse é perfeito!!!
what a profoundly beautiful process and end result. I don't smoke but one day I have to get my hands on one of these.
I have never seen satin finished done that way, I am amazed that works so well
Thank you for making this video
Truly, an inspiration. Great craftsmanship :)
Thank you very much!
WoW beautiful pipe, and real traditional hardworking artist master!!!
Thank you so much!!!!
Increíble producción!! Un vídeo verdaderamente mañoso una maravilla
The satin finish was a fantastic finishing touch!
Thank you! Cheers!
È stato davvero emozionante vedere tutta la preparazione e la realizzazione con una maestria davvero eccezionale e davvero tanto amore. Non so quanto tempo hai impiegato ma hai fatto nascere dalle tue mani un autentico capolavoro. Ti sei creato anche tutti gli attrezzi e in pochi metri quadri di spazio come laboratorio tutto a misura tua non posso che dire che sei un grande maestro. Complimenti davvero. Italian linguage
Grazie per il tuo commento! Mi fa piacere che il video ti sia piaciuto!
Beautiful work, master craftsman. 😍
Thank you very much!
Thats the 2nd finest crack pipe i’ve ever seen
Класс 👏 Удачи и всего хорошего мастеру
whoa, really beautiful piece
Thank you very much!
I almost couldn't watch when he was heating the seam billets at the 5th Process. That takes nerves of steel putting a torch to silver after so much work put into it. Bravo to the craftsman!
Thank you for your comment !
Seen a lot of pipes like this , used for smoking opium. Very pretty work
Opium pipes look very different
Another video that shows your dedication and skills, congratulations on your work.
Thank you so much!!!!
He's really making it in the traditional sense as I would just use my rolling mill to flatten and stretch the silver.
Amd couldnt he have just started with a longer, shallower mould so he wouldnt have to beat it as much ?
No complaints here! I love the finished product!
Thank you so much !!!
You are a great artist, bravo 😊
At first i was going crazy by the sound of the hammer. Then by the middle of it i was in a trance 😆 it was weirdly therapeutic. I feel very relaxed now. Great vid ❤
Thank you !
Beautiful work.❤
Ein absoluter Meister in seinem Handwerk. Ein Prachtstück und so professionell jeder Schritt
Amazing craftsmanship!
Thank you !!!
Japanese craftsmen sure are something else. All handmade, no machinery in site. I sure hope these items sell at the price he wants.
日本の職人技は素晴らしいですね❤
ご視聴ありがとうございます!
Beautiful. And it’s silver. I like silver. It’s my favorite color.

You're an artist...
It's really unbelievable...
Thank you so much 😀

Craftsman at his finest 🤙
From Germany ich habe gesehen was sie da gezaubert haben es ist eine echt wunderschöne rauchpfeife geworden diese Eleganz Präzision Verarbeitung ist echt auf einem so extrem hohen eleganten Niveau das ist echt spannend war in bei dem Video zuzuschauen einfach nur Spitzenklasse mit vollstem Respekt und Ehrfurcht danke sehr

クリスマス曲で叩いてるところを発見してしまいました。メリークリスマス!
Beautiful work.
Thank you very much!
Watched that whole thing. Very calming
thank you so much ☺️
In the past, a man would toil his life away, mastering a skill or craft , never really knowing if anyone truelly appreciated their art . Today , masters of various unseen crafts are able to be seen by the world and appreciated. It is a small but meaningful improvement.
Great Craftsmanship.❤
Beautiful work greeting from Switzerland
Magnífico! 👏👏👏👏👏
Wow, that was incredible.
This is incredible work.
I just use a 1L glass bottle, gauze and a socket, oh and a pail of h20.
This is outstanding craftmanship.
hermosos trabajo
saludos desde argentina
It's like the Japanese swords of pipe making!

Awesome work

Просто восхитительно!😮
This is incredible.
Thank you for the comment 🙏
Dudes hands and fingers are straight out of anime, im sure they are like vice grips.💪🏻
Nice! I watched a old very bad video from years ago on a master craftsman making a Kiseru from scratch. but the video quality of course was bad.
Thank you for uploading this!
Glad it was helpful!
I would love to send you a few Kg of .999 silver I recovered from scrap, to make a solid silver fighting pipe (Kenka Kiseru). Interested? @@Craftsmanship-Process
Lovely, fine art.
Kudos!
Such talent and a job well done! 😊
If I had the materials, tools and a thousand years to learn I still couldn’t make something as beautiful as this.
and yet at some point they'll let you vote, think about that ..
@@Hardy_H_HI’m not sure what you mean. I can’t create something so beautiful so I shouldn’t vote? You think me a child? Your comment is just odd.
wonderful
There is also a documentary about Japanese fountain pen craftsman. Same, all made by hand and stunningly beautiful.
A true master! ❤
Beautiful
Thank you!
Why would he start with such a large ingot? Great craftsmanship and patience.
nice work!
Thank you! Cheers!
