April Release 2026
April's release features some ranges that are in extremely high demand! Takeda in particular have been out of stock for 18 months, so we're extremely glad to have them back, but no doubt they'll be gone in minutes. We welcome back restocks of Nigara Hamono, Hatsukokoro, Masutani and Morihei as well as new pieces from Nakagawa and Ashi Hamono. Enjoy!
