The Stando project is a result of my interest in updating the ubiquitous kitchen tongs — which often tears or breaks food and feels like cooking with two clumsy thumbs. We calibrated Stando to feel like a delicate extension of one’s fingers.

We ditched the bland and clinical look of tongs, and replaced it with a soft streamlined shape. 

The namesake feature, a curved stand in the middle of the tool provides a wide surface area for finger placement and grip. The stand also keeps the tips elevated off the ground while not in use.

The curve has been strategically placed to lean on vessels like 1/9 pans, pint containers, bowls, pan handles - anything with a lip or corner, really. 

If you think of tweezers as solely reserved for micro greens and delicate plating, I encourage you to give Stando a try as an every day tool.

Each piece is stamped, etched, and finished by hand at Mr. Ando’s workshop. 

Form-
Stando combines the long tapered profile of Japanese cooking chopsticks with the tension and precision of plating tweezers. It is comfortable everywhere from turning small veg in a small pan, to handling noodles and grilling.

The Chocera are one of Naniwa's premium whetstone offerings. Similar to the Shapton Glass but with better feedback, albeit a slightly faster wear rate. A thick, firm, high-end stone perfect for all steel stypes and applications.

Made In Japan

If you asked: "Give me a stone that isn't too soft, isn't too hard, has great feedback, is splash and go, and has its own base but won't cost me an arm and a leg,", we're reaching for the Shapton Kuromaku every time. 

Somewhat reminiscent of the Chosera (albeit with a slightly thinner stone), the Kuromaku are a splash and go dream. Softer than the Glass HR, harder than Suehiro Cerax, they represent excellent value. 

Grit: #8000 Very Fine (For honing or edge polishing, use after the 5000)

The 'Ever Peeler' took a lot of time and planning, after comparing over 200 types of peelers from around the world before the final design was settled on. Completely made in Japan this peeler can not only peel potatoes and carrots but is able to shred cabbage too. Crafted to have the sharpest possible blade and also durability of that sharpness has resulted in a peeler of the highest quality.

To reduce wastage the creators of the 'Ever Peeler' also made replaceable blades available so your peeler can be restored with a new blade if needed.

Includes the small brass fish scaler and matte black brushed fish bone tweezers
