SUWADA Traditional Flower Shears S-17
Straight, slim Japanese shears for fresh flowers, fine twigs and bud work. The narrow blades are designed to reach into dense growth where broader pruning secateurs can be harder to position.
Cutting capacity is approximately 3 mm near the blade tip and 5 mm at the base, making the S-17 a fine-work tool rather than a heavy pruning shear.

Questions about this tool
Flower scissors or secateurs: which should I use?
Flower scissors are designed for fresh stems, floristry and arrangement work. Secateurs are designed for pruning woody live growth. For ikebana, traditional Ikenobo or flower-shear forms can offer a different handling style suited to arranging stems.
How should I care for Japanese flower scissors?
Keep the blades clean and dry after use. Carbon-steel tools benefit from a light protective oil before storage, while coated Sakagen scissors should be wiped clean and kept dry.
Experience true Japanese craftsmanship.

Japanese Nail Nipper - Suwada Classic
Kogu teapot
Beautiful teapot from Kogu. I saw this one while I was in Japan and fell in love with the design. The material is beautiful and the size is perfect. Also the packaging was lovely and shipping was very fast.

Nippers sheath
To be honest, I bought the case solely because it protects the nippers and fits them perfectly; I didn't bother looking for a different $5 option that would offer the same fit. Unlike the nippers—which are simply flawless—the case is vastly overpriced; the cost of three cases equals the price of one pair of nippers. Yet, the nippers represent sheer perfection and embody a huge amount of time and effort, whereas the case is just a piece of leather stitched together.

Nail Nipper Leather Case - Large - 5 colors
Sizes L and S
I spent a long time deciding whether to buy size S or L, so I ended up buying both. I had never used cutters like these before, but when I tried them out, I found the blades to be incredibly sharp and precisely aligned. The leverage mechanism works perfectly—there is absolutely no play, and everything fits together tightly. Having worked as a fitter for ten years, I appreciate tools that perform with precision and flawlessness; I even examined them under a magnifying glass and couldn't find a single defect—it is truly amazing that these cutters have been perfected to such a degree.

Excellent Precision and Premium Quality
I am really happy with the Suwada Round Nail Clipper. The quality feels exceptional from the moment you hold it, and the precision is truly impressive. It cuts very cleanly and smoothly, which makes nail care feel much easier and more controlled.
What I like most is how accurate it is, especially around the edges of the nails. It gives a neat result without needing much effort. The design also feels solid, elegant and made to last.
Overall, I am very pleased with this nail clipper. It is definitely a premium product, but the precision, comfort and quality make it worth it for me.

Round Tip Nail Nipper
First class nipper
Perfect craftsmanship. +They’re so sharp that they cut very smoothly (no snapping) and accurately. That’s the quality I love. The straight & pointy edge on this model is definitely the best for big toes nails. Consequently, the rest is a breeze.

Japanese Nail Nipper - Suwada Classic
Utilitarian item of no equal
Deep frying chicken or shrimps with oil needs a lot. It makes sense to re-use it again the oil for next time. Hence we find this a very utilitarian item of importance, which helps in re-using the oil. It also comes with a filter. The filter keeps the over-fried fritters out of the oil.
