Tokoya
A current Tokoya maker, model sheet and working seller have not been confirmed; check these before relying on material or origin claims.
This inherited Japan directory route is under review; no current Tokoya maker or factory country has been verified.
Directory snapshot
Tokoya needs current maker, model, factory-origin and buyer evidence before a Japanese steel or price claim can be trusted.

A current Tokoya maker, factory location and model catalogue could not be established from a working primary source. The previously listed US seller now redirects to a parked domain, so it is not a usable way to check stock or place an order. The inherited Japan directory route remains for navigation while the country classification is reviewed.
What to verify before buying
Ask a seller for the exact Tokoya model number, maker or importer name, country-of-origin marking, blade material, size and hand, along with warranty and sharpening terms. Earlier references to 440C and a fixed US price are not a substitute for a current product sheet. A Japanese word in the brand name does not establish the factory country.
If you already own a pair, a clear photograph of the blade marking and packaging may help identify the manufacturer and a compatible service route. Until current maker and seller evidence is available, treat this as a fact-held directory profile rather than a confirmed Japanese-made buying recommendation.
Tokoya FAQ
Is Tokoya a verified Japanese-made brand?
A Japanese factory or current brand owner has not been established from a working maker source. The Japan directory address is an inherited route, not proof of manufacture.
Can I rely on the old 440C and price claims?
No current maker sheet confirms a steel grade, size range or price for the line. Ask for documentation for the exact pair before using those details to decide.
Where can I buy Tokoya scissors?
The previously listed US seller domain now opens a parked page. Request a current authorised seller or direct maker contact and verify payment, returns and service before ordering.
No verified maker website link is available for this profile. Confirm the maker, model specifications and seller terms before buying.
