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.
01:27Fountain pens.
01:44I think it's a great gift for adults.
01:49I think it's cool when I see people using it.
01:54When you become an adult, you think of a fountain pen as a gift.
01:57I feel like a fountain pen is something that transcends a single tool.
02:05This time, the theme is the Tottori Prefecture, Tottori City, which is famous for the Japanese sea.
02:11Just five minutes' walk from Tottori Station is the fountain pen shop.
02:16Wow!
02:18In the shop, which has a rich and chic atmosphere, there are beautiful pens lined up.
02:27In the center is a large table for customers, and in the back is a glass-wrapped workshop.
02:33Here, the craftsmen carefully make fountain pens one by one.
02:42The company was founded in 1934.
02:45The founder, Mr. 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 his hometown of Tottori five years later to avoid war.
03:03Since then, he has continued to manufacture and sell fountain pens in Tottori, and has kept the tradition alive.
03:11The fact that he used to have a fountain pen was a proof of his maturity.
03:16It was also a special necessity for a social person like him.
03:21At that time, the fountain pen industry was the main industry, and the craftsmen made one by one.
03:28The first founder, Mr. Yoshio Yamamoto, 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,
03:55the fountain pens were made by a large number of craftsmen.
03:58It was a time when the fountain pens were made by a large number of craftsmen and sold.
04:04The counterattack continued.
04:07In the 1970s, fountain pens became popular.
04:11In the 1980s, Warpro became popular, 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 wondered what I had been doing as a specialty store.
04:44I was trying to make a profit from a large manufacturer and sell products from right to left.
04:49I was wondering if I was a specialty store.
04:52I was wondering if I had made 100% of my efforts as a specialty store.
04:56I didn't.
04:58If I hadn't, I thought I'd quit after I had done that.
05:04This was the moment when he started making fountain pens for custom-made fountain pens.
05:09This was the moment when he started making fountain pens for custom-made fountain pens.
05:19Mr. Inoue, who won a literary prize, was asked by the publisher what he wanted as a celebration.
05:28He replied that he wanted a fountain pen that fulfilled his selfishness.
05:33The large 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, I feel like I'm helping them.
05:49I feel like I'm helping them.
05:53I feel like I'm helping them.
05:58I feel like I'm helping them.
06:01I feel like I'm helping them.
06:07I feel like I'm helping them.
06:12As you say.
06:13There is a risk of moving the production line for only one fountain pen in a large manufacturer that produces large quantities.
06:20However, this is a company that can cope with it and it will sell.
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 pen makers.
06:33He supported this idea.
06:35I see.
06:38He decided to make a fountain pen for custom-made fountain pens.
06:43Moreover, the second generation aimed at...
06:47There are many characteristics of fountain pens.
06:52However, I don't know the characteristics of fountain pens.
06:55I'm going to make a product that I don't know.
07:01I'm going to make a product that I don't know.
07:06The second generation aimed to make a fountain pen that was comfortable to write in.
07:14I see.
07:15A new challenge has begun to realize this ideal.
07:21And it was not only the technology of the craftsman that made it comfortable to write.
07:27It was the masterpiece of Dr. Sanagara, who was the second generation to make a fountain pen.
07:34The third generation of Dr. Sanagara, President Yamamoto, came to the studio.
07:39Nice to meet you.
07:42This is a uniform, isn't it?
07:45Yes, it is.
07:46I'm Samuei from Oda.
07:48I work on the floor.
07:51I have a sense of bare feet.
07:53I see.
07:54It's like a pottery.
07:58What is the origin of the name Dr. fountain pen?
08:03My grandfather and my grandfather's brother came up with this name.
08:08At that time, there were many places where doctors and hospitals were allowed to enter.
08:20Dr. Sanagara came up with a name similar to that.
08:25I see.
08:26When did the fountain pen come to Japan?
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.
08:41They thought it would be a good job if they made a fountain pen with this wood.
08:46I see.
08:47As a result, it evolved independently in Japan.
08:50Is that method unique to Japanese fountain pen making?
08:54Yes, it is.
08:55There are a lot of movements that incorporate our know-how when we make foreign products.
09:04I think that's why the name Dr. fountain pen came to Japan.
09:11What is the secret of Dr. Sanagara's fountain pen?
09:16GASTAM MADE
09:20GASTAM MADE is not only about decoration and appearance, but also about creating a fountain pen that suits the person.
09:27In order to realize this, the second generation came up with a secret.
09:33I made a fountain pen called Karte.
09:38I found that it was possible to leave an objective data as a fountain pen.
09:47When a person writes, each person's personality appears.
09:54Dr. Sanagara made a fountain pen by carefully meeting with customers.
10:00Based on that data, he creates a fountain pen that fits each person's writing habits.
10:06For example, where to put your little finger.
10:07The position to hold.
10:08Where the index finger and thumb go.
10:11It's completely different for each person.
10:14The angle rises when you hold the lower part.
10:18The angle goes up when you hold the upper part.
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 pen to be placed on the desk.
10:37I see.
10:39The ultimate goal is to have the person write their name and address three times.
10:44Even the details are necessary to create a fountain pen.
10:51At first, everyone is nervous.
10:55Of course, when you write an important letter, you stretch your spine.
11:04That'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.
11:18The length of the pen and the center of gravity of the pen shaft are carefully adjusted.
11:26And the most delicate and important process is the polishing of the pen tip.
11:33When you buy a copy of a manufacturer's product and use it for 20 years,
11:39you will find that the same parts will decrease.
11:43What we think is that this person's writing is like this when he used it for 20 years.
11:48We make a familiar writing taste from the beginning.
11:52This is a pen tip with nothing added.
11:56And this is a pen tip that was finished according to 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.
12:11In this way, not only the appearance, but also the writing taste,
12:15a one-of-a-kind pen tip has been completed.
12:20Mr. Ryo Yamamoto, the third generation, is currently working on this delicate work alone.
12:27He started as a craftsman 22 years ago,
12:30but his son is not taught by a 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 it in words.
12:49I had no choice but to steal my job.
12:53After the craftsman left, I learned how to sharpen a knife,
12:57how to sharpen a stone for sharpening a knife,
13:00and how to make a good sound.
13:03For example, the sound of sharpening a knife,
13:05or the sound of the material being scraped,
13:07or the sound of the sound of the material being scraped,
13:11I think that the sound of the knife being scraped is one of the reasons.
13:21In addition, there was a limit to the machines that the previous craftsman had been using for many years,
13:27so he had to make new tools.
13:31For example, he disassembled a machine called a saw to sharpen a pen shaft,
13:37laid it on a drawing board, improved it, and made it again.
13:45He is making a fountain pen according to the person who uses it.
13:51In addition, he is thoroughly particular about the material used for the pen shaft,
13:55so he uses rare celluloids, black charcoal, titanium,
14:02and even water buffalo horns and elephant horns.
14:07The price ranges from 100,000 yen per pen to sometimes over 700,000 yen.
14:13Even so, it is still a favorite of fountain pen enthusiasts,
14:17and there is no end to orders.
14:22It takes a year and a half to make a fountain pen.
14:27At my current pace,
14:31I make about 8 to 10 pens a month.
14:39It's a high pace.
14:42He spends most of the day in the workshop,
14:46and has countless annual holidays.
14:50This is the world's only custom-made fountain pen,
14:53which is full of his third-generation commitment and skills.
15:00The reputation is spreading not only in Japan but also overseas.
15:07Why are people all over the world fascinated by this fountain pen?
15:14It's amazing.
15:16You spend most of your annual holidays on this fountain pen.
15:20Yes, I do.
15:21I think 100,000 to 700,000 yen is a reasonable price for a fountain pen.
15:29This time, I'm going to ask Mr. Yashima what kind of fountain pen suits him.
15:36I'm a little nervous, but I'm glad.
15:39Please write your name on the fountain pen.
15:43I'm going to write my name here.
15:46It's better to write it at the same height as usual.
15:49Yes, I'll write my name here.
15:57This fountain pen is very easy to write.
16:00Do you think so?
16:02What do you understand by writing your name?
16:05The most familiar thing to me is that it's easy to get a habit or a characteristic.
16:10You wrote a cute name at the end.
16:13Thank you very much.
16:15But you were nervous.
16:18When I'm nervous, I tend to write at an angle.
16:22But this fountain pen can write at a 45-degree angle.
16:28Is that so?
16:29The biggest feature of this fountain pen is that it can write at a very fast speed.
16:35And it doesn't get pressured.
16:37I see.
16:38What kind of fountain pen suits Mr. Yashima?
16:43I want to put a cap on the back of the fountain pen.
16:47The length of the cap is 159mm.
16:50159mm?
16:52It's not 160mm.
16:55I'm going to write my name in 1mm units.
16:57I'm going to write my name at a 45-degree angle.
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 okay 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 an elegant image that spreads out to the side.
17:47This is probably the brightness in front of you.
17:51I think this is the characteristic.
17:54The speed of writing and the speed of the head are quick.
17:58It's quick to judge.
18:01I think there are more and more nice words in the ad-lib.
18:08I'll try to write it.
18:12Why is the company's fountain pen evaluated overseas?
18:22The company's challenge is finally spreading 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 it is a good place to access from various European countries.
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.
20:08This group is led by Mr. Tsu, a Taiwanese.
20:12He has been working with the company for 18 years.
20:16He is a passionate fan of fountain pens.
20:24This is the 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 look at them.
20:36Then I calm down.
20:38It's like a human.
20:40Everyone is unique.
20:42Every pen here is unique.
20:45Currently, 65% of orders are from overseas.
20:50The online ordering system has also 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 that,
21:06the order system in the communication sales has improved dramatically.
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.
21:32It is a letter of gratitude that proves this.
21:37Just having this fountain pen in one's 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 that person.
22:13I hope he can be an active 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.
22:37I see.
22:38Especially in winter.
22:39The theme of Tottori is crab.
22:41It was delicious.
22:43In addition to that,
22:45there are many people who come to Japan every year and want to have crab season.
22:49I see.
22:50Then there must be a lot of repeaters.
22:53That's right.
22:54It seems that more and more people want this kind of fountain pen for each material and shape.
23:03I see.
23:04I think that's the motivation for us to work.
23:08There are times when we use the fountain pen when we sign the petition.
23:15In that sense, I think we have a sense of companionship.
23:19When I hear that story,
23:21if we can make a fountain pen aiming for the ultimate point,
23:25I think that's the ultimate one.
23:28I want to get to the point where I can make a fountain pen that excites people all over the world.
23:33That's amazing.
23:34Finally, Mr. Yashima.
23:36Please tell us about today's lesson.
23:38Yes.
23:39This time,
23:43I will make the ultimate one
23:46that excites people all over the world.
23:49It's like a time machine.
23:51I can still read letters from 1,000 years ago.
23:55It's like a 1,000-year-old time slip.
23:58I think it's amazing that I can write a letter
24:03and have a life partner there.
24:06I think it's amazing.
24:08I think it's amazing.
24:10I think it's amazing.
24:12I think it's amazing that I can write a letter
24:15and have a life partner there.
24:19I'm looking forward to it.
24:21Thank you very much for today.
