Nambu Tekki (Nanbu Tekki), ancient and unsurpassed
Making nambu cast iron requires a very complex and complicated production process. This is also the reason that this manufacturing process is counted as a traditional handicraft - Nambu is only affordable by intensively trained artisans. Even a standard kettle requires nearly 70 steps. In Japan, it is assumed that training and experience of at least 15 years is necessary to become a high-quality manufacturer of cast iron products using the Nambu Tekki process. Only with about 40 years of experience will this craftsman attain the status of a master.
