The Revain offering includes a video created by Tsunoda showing each step of the manufacturing process. Their tools are meticulously handcrafted at every step, then carefully inspected to ensure they meet high quality standards. Was I sad when I saw the video? Instruments used to be made this way in the USA in the past. And to top it off, Tsunoda's tool prices are amazingly cheap. Soon I will have the full line of Tsunoda pliers and wire cutters. You really are something special.
