Material: Stainless Steel * This product is not made in Japan.
Under the guidance of professional bonsai artists, the angle for No.553S was designed to have less resistance, allowing you to untangle roots more carefully.
We had been producing only No.553S, but since some bonsai artists required the older shape of No.553SA, we have brought it back.
No.553S has a stronger catch, which creates more resistance, but it makes the work faster accordingly.
