00:00A beautiful wood grain. A smooth feeling that sticks to the hand. This is not just a tool.
00:12A partner who walks with life. The only fountain pen in the world.
00:18This fountain pen, which was born in a small workshop in Tottori Prefecture,
00:24was made according to each person's taste and habit.
00:30The price ranges from 100,000 yen to 700,000 yen.
00:34It takes more than a year and a half to ship.
00:37Even so, orders are flooding in from home and abroad.
00:43It's the same as people. Everyone is unique.
00:46Here, every pen is unique.
00:49It would be nice if he could act as a partner who can't let go of his pen.
00:55However, the road to this point was not smooth.
01:00Due to mass production, he was at the brink of bankruptcy.
01:05Even so, he continued to stick to handmade pens.
01:08One of the secret measures of Sanagara was to support the company's annual output.
01:15His reputation has surpassed the sea and has attracted fans all over the world.
01:19This time, we will look at whether he was the only company to continue to produce fountain pens.
01:26The fountain pen we will introduce next is a fountain pen from the 1990s.
01:33It's a fountain pen that is used by many people.
01:38It's a fountain pen that you can use for a long time.
01:43It's an adult fountain pen.
01:47It's very popular among adults.
01:53Speaking of gifts for when you become a member of society, I have an image of a fountain pen.
01:57I have a feeling that a fountain pen is something that transcends a single tool.
02:05This time, the stage is Tottori Prefecture, Tottori City, facing the Japan Sea.
02:10Just five minutes' walk from Tottori Station is the fountain pen museum.
02:16Wow!
02:18A beautiful fountain pen lined up in a chic shop.
02:27In the center is a large dining table.
02:30In the back is a glass-wrapped workshop.
02:33Here, the craftsmen carefully make fountain pens.
02:42The company was founded in 1934.
02:45The founder, Yoshio Yamamoto, founded the fountain pen factory with his brother in Manchuria at the time.
02:54He returned to Osaka in 1939, but moved to Tottori five years later to avoid war.
03:03Since then, he has continued to manufacture and sell fountain pens in Tottori.
03:10The fact that he used to have a fountain pen is a proof of his maturity.
03:16It was also a special necessity for a member of society.
03:21At the time, the fountain pen industry was the main industry, and the craftsmen made one by one.
03:28Yoshio Yamamoto, the first founder, was also known as a skilled craftsman.
03:34However, in the 1950s, the mass production wave pushed the fountain pen industry.
03:42In the era of mass production and mass sales, the fountain pens we saw on TV commercials became popular.
03:50So, instead of being made by a country craftsman,
03:54the fountain pens were made by a large number of craftsmen.
03:58It was a period of transition from a business that made fountain pens to a business that sold fountain pens.
04:04Furthermore, the adversity continued.
04:07In the 1970s, fountain pens became popular.
04:11In the 1980s, the popularity of fountain pens increased, and the fountain pen itself became unsellable.
04:20The second founder, Mr. Masaaki Yamamoto, was the one who caught up with the company in the midst of a crisis.
04:27I was determined to quit.
04:35I was determined to quit.
04:39At that moment, I thought,
04:41What have I been doing as a specialist so far?
04:44Do I have a specialist because I buy from a large manufacturer and sell products from right to left?
04:52Did I do my best as a specialist?
04:56I didn't do it.
04:58If I didn't do it, I thought I'd quit after I did it.
05:04This was the moment when he started making fountain pens for custom-made fountain pens.
05:10This was the moment when he started making fountain pens for custom-made fountain pens.
05:19When Mr. Inoue, who won a literary prize, was asked by the publisher what he wanted as a celebration,
05:28he replied that he wanted to make a fountain pen that fulfilled his selfishness.
05:33The manufacturer responded to his request and spent 10 million yen to make a fountain pen.
05:42When I listen to the voices of various customers,
05:46I feel like I'm helping them.
05:49I feel like I'm helping them.
05:53I feel like I'm helping them.
05:57I feel like I'm helping them.
06:01I feel like I'm helping them.
06:07I feel like I'm helping them.
06:12I feel like I'm helping them.
06:13In a large manufacturer that produces a large number of products,
06:16there is a risk of moving the production line for only one product,
06:20but companies can deal with it and sell it.
06:25In addition, there was a craftsman who was a first-generation apprentice who made tools and repaired fountain pens in the era of fountain pens makers,
06:33and he supported this idea.
06:35I see.
06:37In this way, he decided to make a fountain pen for custom-made fountain pens.
06:42Moreover, the second generation aimed at...
06:47There are various habits from the sensor of the writing set.
06:52But I don't know that habit.
06:55I'm going to make a product that I don't know how to read.
07:02I'm going to specialize in that.
07:06The second generation aimed at a fountain pen that was comfortable to write in as if it had been used for decades from the moment it was obtained.
07:14I see.
07:15A new challenge has begun to realize that ideal.
07:21And what made it comfortable to write was not only the craftsmanship of the craftsman,
07:27but also the skill of Dr. Sanagara, who was the second generation to make a fountain pen.
07:34The third generation of Dr. Sanagara, Mr. Yamamoto, has come to the studio.
07:39Nice to meet you.
07:40Nice to meet you, too.
07:42This is a uniform, isn't it?
07:43That's right.
07:44Because you've done all the training.
07:45That's right.
07:46This is Samuei from Oda.
07:48I work on the 6th floor of Shibumi.
07:50I see.
07:51I have a better sense of the skin.
07:53I see.
07:54It's kind of like a pottery.
07:58What is the origin of the name Dr. fountain pen?
08:03This is the name that my grandfather and my grandfather's brother came up with.
08:08At that time, when people around the world were making fountain pens,
08:15there were many places where doctors and hospitals could enter.
08:20It seems that Dr. fountain pen was born with a similar nuance to that.
08:25I see.
08:26When did fountain pens come to Japan in the first place?
08:30It is said that it was in the second half of the 1800s.
08:34At that time, a group of woodworkers made vessels and pottery with wood.
08:41I thought it would be a good job if a group of woodworkers made a fountain pen with this 6th floor.
08:46I see.
08:47As a result, it evolved independently in Japan.
08:50Is that method unique to Japanese fountain pen making?
08:54That's right.
08:55There are a lot of movements that incorporate their own know-how when making foreign things.
09:04That's why it's true that it's a 6th floor.
09:07And that's what it looks like.
09:11What is the secret of Dr. Sanagara's fountain pen?
09:20It's not just about decoration and appearance.
09:23It's about making a fountain pen that fits the person.
09:27In order to realize this, the second generation came up with a secret.
09:33It's called a karte.
09:38I found that you can objectively leave data in a carved karte.
09:43That's interesting.
09:45I made it.
09:47When people write, their individuality appears.
09:54Dr. Sanagara made a karte by carefully meeting with customers.
10:00Based on that data, he creates a fountain pen that fits each person's writing style.
10:06For example, where to put the little finger.
10:08The position to hold.
10:09Where the index finger and thumb go.
10:11It's completely different for each person.
10:14The angle rises when you hold the bottom.
10:18The angle goes up when you hold the top.
10:21The slope of the pen tip.
10:24How to look outside.
10:26How to go inside.
10:29In addition, the pressure and writing speed.
10:32The position to put the paper.
10:34The angle of the arm to put on the desk.
10:37I see.
10:39The ultimate goal is to have the person write the name and address three times.
10:44Even the details are essential for finishing the fountain pen.
10:51At first, everyone is nervous.
10:55Of course, there are times when you write an important letter.
11:04That's where it's important.
11:06If you keep writing, you'll relax.
11:10I want to see all the relaxation from the tension.
11:13I want at least three lines.
11:17I see.
11:19The length of the pen and the center of gravity of the pen shaft are carefully adjusted.
11:27And the most delicate and important process is the polishing of the pen tip.
11:34When you buy a copy of a manufacturer's product and use it for 20 years,
11:39You're going to lose a lot of the same things.
11:43What we're thinking is,
11:45This is what he wrote when he used it for 20 years.
11:48I'm going to make a familiar writing taste from the beginning.
11:52This is a pen tip with nothing in it.
11:56And this is the pen tip that I made for the customer.
12:00If you compare them, you can see that the tip is thin and scraped.
12:05This slight difference creates a big writing taste difference.
12:11And not just the appearance, but the writing taste.
12:14A one-of-a-kind pen tip in the world.
12:20Mr. Ryo Yamamoto, the third generation, is currently working on this delicate work alone.
12:27It was 22 years ago that he became a craftsman.
12:30Even though he's the president's son, he doesn't learn from the craftsman.
12:38As you can see, I didn't do it on purpose.
12:43It's not about numbers or manuals.
12:47I can teach you in words.
12:50I had no choice but to steal my job.
12:53After the craftsman left,
12:55The way the blade is sharpened, the way the stone is sharpened,
13:00And it doesn't make a good sound.
13:03For example, the sound of sharpening a blade,
13:05The sound of the material being sharpened,
13:07It's like an ion.
13:09It's like a squeak.
13:11That's because the blade isn't sharpened.
13:13The way it's sharpened is wrong.
13:15The amount of force is wrong.
13:17I think that sound was one of the reasons.
13:21In addition, there was a limit to the machines that the previous craftsmen had been using for many years.
13:27It was necessary to make new tools.
13:30One of them is a machine called a skull that sharpens a pen shaft.
13:35He disassembled the machines until then.
13:37He put them on the drawing board, improved them, and made them again.
13:43I didn't sell it.
13:45He's been working on this.
13:47He's been working on this.
13:51In addition, he is thoroughly particular about the material used for the pen shaft.
13:55Celluloid, which is a rare product with a small number of producers.
13:59It's also called black charcoal, titanium.
14:02In addition, it can also be used to make water buffalo horns and elephant horns.
14:07The price ranges from 100,000 yen per piece to 700,000 yen at times.
14:14Even so, it's still a favorite of all year-round enthusiasts.
14:18There's no end to the orders.
14:22It takes a year and a half to make a new product.
14:27At my current pace, I make about 8 to 10 pieces a month.
14:39That's the average.
14:41It's a high pace.
14:42He spends most of his day in the workshop, doing business as a president.
14:46He has countless annual holidays.
14:50This is the world's only custom-made fountain pen, with the third generation's commitment and technology.
15:00The reputation continues to spread overseas, not just in Japan.
15:07Why are people all over the world fascinated by this fountain pen?
15:14It's amazing.
15:16You've been working non-stop for a year.
15:20That's right.
15:21I think 100,000 to 700,000 yen is a reasonable price.
15:29This time, we're going to diagnose Mr. Yashima's fountain pen.
15:35I'm a little nervous, but I'm glad to hear that.
15:39Please write your name on the fountain pen.
15:43I'm going to write my name here.
15:45It's better to write it at the same height as you usually do.
15:48That's right.
15:49I'll write my name.
15:56This fountain pen is very easy to write.
15:59Is that right?
16:01What do you know by writing your name?
16:04The thing I'm most used to writing is that it's easy to get a habit.
16:09I wrote a cute name at the end.
16:13Thank you very much.
16:15But you were nervous.
16:17When I'm nervous, I tend to write at a very high angle.
16:22This fountain pen is about 45 degrees.
16:24It's the best way to write.
16:27Is that so?
16:29The biggest feature of this fountain pen is that you can write at a high speed.
16:33It's very fast, and it doesn't pressure you.
16:39What is the fountain pen suitable for Mr. Yashima?
16:43I want to put a cap on the back of the fountain pen.
16:47The length of the pen tip is about 159 mm.
16:51159 mm?
16:53It's not 160 mm.
16:55I'm going to write it in 1 mm units.
16:57The pen tip is about 45 degrees.
17:04I want to put a sweet spot here.
17:07I'm going to make two strokes on this side and this side.
17:10I'm going to sharpen it like this.
17:12This way of sharpening is suitable for people who write Japanese.
17:17I'm going to make a shape like the tip of a brush.
17:21It's like this.
17:23I heard that the budget for the program is up to 400,000 yen.
17:28Thank you for waiting for a year and a half.
17:34Mr. Yamamoto has made more than 6,700 fountain pens.
17:38We can see his personality from the fountain pen.
17:42I got a graceful and elegant image.
17:47I think this is the brightness in front of you.
17:51I think this is the feature.
17:53Is that so?
17:55The speed of writing and the speed of your head are quick.
17:58It's quick to judge.
18:01I think there are more and more beautiful words in the ad-lib.
18:08I'll try to write it.
18:12Why is the company's fountain pen highly rated overseas?
18:22The company's challenge is finally expanding overseas.
18:26The first step was the challenge in Amsterdam, the Netherlands in 2016.
18:32A passionate customer came from the Netherlands to Tottenham.
18:40He asked if I would come to the Netherlands.
18:43Amsterdam, the Netherlands, is a hub airport.
18:46It is said that the access from various European countries is good.
18:51I'm sure people will gather.
18:54I thought it might be a good weather.
18:59So I went there.
19:05The name of the company gradually spread overseas thanks to the event held in the Netherlands.
19:14At the end of November last year, five customers visited the company's workshop.
19:21It can be closed.
19:23But they are afraid that the wood will move inside.
19:27It seems to be a specialty from Taiwan.
19:32One of them, Mr. Tsu, said that he could not think of anything other than this fountain pen.
19:42I usually write with my left hand.
19:47Because I have a habit of writing with my right hand,
19:52I hold the pen in a straight position.
19:57It's basically 80 degrees and 90 degrees.
20:00From this angle, only Mr. Sanpei uses this fountain pen.
20:06I don't have any other fountain pens.
20:09This group is led by Mr. Tsu, a Taiwanese.
20:13He has been working with the company for 18 years.
20:16He is a passionate fan of fountain pens.
20:24This is the first fountain pen I made for Mr. Sanpei.
20:28I have more than 100 of them here.
20:31I change them every week.
20:33When I'm in a bad mood, I'll take a look at them.
20:36Then I'll calm down.
20:38It's like a human being.
20:40Everyone is unique.
20:42Every pen here is unique.
20:45Currently, 65% of the orders are from overseas.
20:50The online ordering system has been adjusted.
20:55Not only does the customer register the fountain pen,
20:59but also sends a video of the actual writing process.
21:03By diagnosing the habit of writing based on the video,
21:07the order system has been significantly improved.
21:12Fountain pens were originally made in Europe.
21:16But when they came to Japan,
21:18Japanese people say that they have more delicate and wonderful technology.
21:23Foreigners say that.
21:28The joy of getting a fountain pen from the company.
21:32This is a letter of gratitude that proves this.
21:37Just having this fountain pen in your hand makes every day fun.
21:41With these words,
21:43the feelings that are contained in each fountain pen are carefully written.
21:50I think it's a tool to leave a living proof for the customer.
21:58It's the same with writing.
22:00It's the same with letters.
22:02The fountain pen itself is very durable.
22:05It can be used up to the age of a grandchild.
22:08I think the fountain pen itself is a living proof for the customer.
22:13I hope you can be a partner who can't let go of the fountain pen.
22:19That's amazing.
22:20100 fountain pens.
22:22100 fountain pens lined up.
22:24I think that kind of person is a fountain pen enthusiast.
22:28Are there a lot of people who come to Japan from abroad?
22:32Yes.
22:33People come from all over the world.
22:35We have a schedule every week.
22:37Is that so?
22:38Especially in winter.
22:39Tottori is famous for crabs.
22:41It was delicious.
22:43In addition to that,
22:45there are many people who come every year to buy crabs.
22:49I see.
22:50It seems that there are a lot of repeaters.
22:53That's right.
22:54It seems that people want to increase the number of such fountain pens in each material and shape.
23:04I think that's the motivation for us to work.
23:08There are times when you use a fountain pen when you sign a contract.
23:15In that sense, I think there is a sense of companionship.
23:20If you can make a fountain pen aiming for the ultimate point,
23:25I think that's the ultimate one.
23:27I want to get to the point where I can make a fountain pen that excites people all over the world.
23:33That's great.
23:34Finally, Mr. Yashima.
23:36Please tell us about today's lesson.
23:38Yes.
23:39This time...
23:42A lifetime partner model.
23:44A lifetime partner model.
23:46Making the ultimate one will make you a lifetime partner.
23:53If you write something and leave what you think,
23:58it's like a time machine.
24:01Even now, reading a letter from 1,000 years ago is like a 1,000-year time slip.
24:09I think that writing a letter and having a lifetime partner there is an incredible thing.
24:19I'm looking forward to it.
24:21Thank you very much for today.
