Introduced in 1988, the K’Zool is named after KEZURU(削る) which means to shave or whittle down in Japanese.  The K'Zool allows the user to choose among 5 blade lengths via a dial.  The sharpness of the core remains visible at all times allowing for fine adjustments.  Push-button mechanism to easily clear snapped leads.  Contoured body for comfortable use. Shutter to prevent escaped shavings. Boxed.

The T’Gaal is named after TOGARU(尖る) which means to taper to a point in Japanese (it also means to 'look displeased'.. should you need to show off!)  A classic since 1993, the T'Gaal allows the user to select the optimal angle of the core tip by using a dial.  Use a low number for soft leads or colored pencils and a high number for hard leads that you'd like to sharpen to a long point.  Contoured body for comfortable use; shutter to prevent escaped shavings.  Boxed.
