JATAI’s company history identifies a California distributor founded in 1950. Its relationship with Feather and other Japanese makers does not make JATAI a Japanese company. Its named BMAC shear collaboration is listed as made in Japan. For a country comparison, distinguish that model-level origin from JATAI’s California business location.
Compare the BMAC models by job
The BMAC range includes Tokyo cutters, a Tokyo thinner, Osaka cutters and a Kyoto cutter. The Tokyo thinner is listed as a 6-inch, 29-tooth VG10 shear with a maker-estimated 30% cut. Section thickness and technique alter the result. The current catalogue also includes other brands and replaceable-blade tools, so do not extend BMAC material or origin to everything JATAI distributes.
Ask for the exact SKU, origin marking, service provider and return terms before ordering. A Japan-made BMAC model does not establish the origin of every shear sold by the California distributor.
