Nice video that gives a look into how Japanese chisels are made.

The interesting part starts at 7:20. It doesn't show the entire process but it's interesting nonetheless.
 
Interesting to watch, though I doubt anything we can buy in the west that is labelled "Japanese" is made in a manner even remotely similar to this.
 
It's all in Japanese so I would imagine it's made for the Japanese market. I would also think a master blacksmith uses grinders to shape the chisels as well.
