The Way of Making
A pair of Ichiro passes through the same sequence its maker's teacher learned, and their teacher before them.
鋼 — はがね
Japanese VG-10 and ATS-314 forged at 58–62 HRC. Each blank rested, oriented to the grain, hand-selected.
刃 — やいば
Convex hamaguri-ba profile, ground on three stones. Thirty-two touches before the first inspection.
合 — あわせ
Blade to blade at five pressure points. If the whisper is wrong, we start again.
仕 — しあげ
Polished by hand to a sixteen-thousand grit mirror. Stamped, numbered, sealed by the maker.
The Collection
Each series is named for a quiet thing — a month, a blossom, a shadow. Every pair is numbered to its maker. Available through approved professional distributors.
Saitama Workshop
A single pair passes through twelve benches. None of them are rushed. The maker's initial is struck last, when the scissor has earned it.
Inside the Bench
Our Saitama workshop produces fewer than forty pairs a day. We do not intend to produce more.
Where to Find Ichiro
Ichiro does not sell direct. Each pair is placed in the hands of a stylist through an approved distributor in the professional trade.

A voice from the chair
They disappear. The scissor is gone and there is only the line the client asked for. I have not felt that in twenty years of cutting.
