Japanese knives in Hungary exhibition
Rector's Office (7622 Pécs, Vasvári Pál u. 4.)
Just 4.5 years ago, the Japanese Knife Shop (Ferenc Tompos' shop) opened in Budapest in the 11th district, which is unique in Hungary in many ways. Although the shop was not very big, the Japanese knife selection was even more so. The search for manufacturers started with a knock on the door, and today you can buy knives from more than 15 masters and manufactories, including some of Japan's best master smiths. The shop has since moved into the city centre and has almost tripled its selection - there are now more than 500 knives on display for you to see, touch and, of course, buy.
In the framework of the Japan Days, nearly 100 special Japanese knives will be on display in Pécs until the end of March in the lobby of the Rector's Office.
