Joe is right, I enquiries directly and was told quite bluntly that Kaneshin has a supply contract with Brian and Megumi Bennet in Sydney. Kaneshin may do mail order to Australia on a retail basis but this would be in some way conflicting with this contractJow wrote:Last time I checked kaneshin were not mailing to Australia because a Sydney nursery had an exclusive deal with them.
however Kaneshin reserve the right to sell their product to whomever they choose.There are heaps of good tools on the market, I saw some rather good ones on the sales table at Bonsai Northwest which Jow may be able to tell you more about

My toolbox is a real melting pot with a small pair of electrical wire cutters, 4-5 Kikuwa tools, one pair of heavy scissors from Japan, a couple of cheapo scissors for root cutting, some home made stuff and a good heavy pair of Felco seccys, (amongst a heap of other stuff
that is perhaps too bizarre to mention). Perhaps that part in brackets is worth a new topic
