For the tacit knowing underlying basic highly-skilled handwork, this research focuses on the clarification of its basic structure and application, constructs the analytical theory, clears up effective aims for general workers to learn the skill, and establishes an efficient self-training method of the handwork. For that purpose, first the application process of the highly-skilled handwork is closely observed from the view point of phenomenology. Then, testing data are taken, and a mathematical model is established to grasp the skill as high-order vector orbits. Furthermore, by applying multi-dimensional differential geometry to this mathematical model, the tacit knowing is substantiated and its configuration is visualized and indexed. The objectives are accomplished by those configuration and indices.
