Abstract

Japanese Kyoto bows consist of bamboo and several different wood materials and are the adhesive structure of natural materials regarded as composite structures. Mr. Kanjuro Shibata is the 21st generation Kyoto bow maker and one of the most famous bow making experts in Japan. A lot of tacit knowledge in the fabrication of the bow is not disclosed. In this paper, the interviewing process called as the Oral DENTO MIRAI technique is performed to understand skill and process from materials to structures of the bow. The interview with Mr. Shibata led to the educational information reflecting his tacit knowledge to fabricate excellent bows.
