Description
Tweezers KURATA FACTORY, Tokyo Meister "2mm Thickness Iroha, k1-013" Japan
Edomoto hand-plucked method by the traditional technique of hitting and extending a 2 mm thick metal rod. The quality of this hand-made product is the same, but by using a material that is 1 mm thinner than usual, it is a reasonably priced product.
It has a traditional shape because it is named after something similar to the Hiragana "i". It is also an altimeter hair remover that can be used for a variety of purposes, even for stubborn beard and armpit hair.
About KURATA FACTORY:
The founder of the Kurata Factory, Yonekichiro Kurata, entered the world of making tweezers at eleven years old, when he became an apprentice of a fifth-generation tweezers maker, Kakuhisa Ozawa. In those days there were many craftsmen who were known tweezers smiths in Asakusa. However, they drastically diminished in number during the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and the Pacific War. In the midst of this, Yonejiro fathered six boys and five girls, with all six boys, including the first-born Fukutaro, entering the world of tweezers craftsmen. In the post-war era, the Kurata family made a name for themselves in the edged tool industry.
The second generation Kurata, Fukutaro, apprenticed under Yonekichiro since he was ten years old and eventually learned under the predecessor of a respected shop "Ubukeya" of Ningyocho in Nihonbashi. There he learned the handmade forms passed down from the Edo Period and what is now considered the highest quality products such as "Iroha", "Komaru", and "Hyotan". Living only for his work, he continued to work until the age of 88, two years prior to his passing. Fukutaro's strong work ethic can be seen in his invention of a special set of pliers to bend a piece of metal for making tweezers or this quote attributed to him,"If the tweezers I made ever hurt you, I am a craftsman after all, I could chop a finger off."
