Kanjuro Shibata | Master Bowyer
Profile
Established in 1534—the very year of Oda Nobunaga’s birth—and passed down through a single, sacred lineage for 21 generations, “Shibata Kanjuro Bow Shop” stands as Kyoto’s sole purveyor of traditional bamboo bows (takeyumi), boasting an unparalleled heritage. It is said that even the legendary warlord Nobunaga himself deeply favored bows crafted by this historic house.
Today, the 21st-generation grandmaster, alongside his son, continues to preserve their highly guarded secrets. From the supreme gijo bows utilized in the most solemn rituals of the Japanese Imperial Court, shrines, and temples, to the refined bows that support modern Kyudo practitioners, each piece is meticulously and painstakingly handcrafted. Because every step of the creation process demands absolute precision by hand, production is strictly limited to only about 25 bows per month.
The breathtakingly beautiful curves, imbued with over 450 years of historic reverence and the very soul of the artisan, possess a timeless value meant to be cherished for a lifetime.
