About Makoto Tadokoro 田所真琴

Makoto Tadokoro is a renowned knife sharpener from Tosa, Japan. He started his career at the young age of 15, shadowing renowned Sakai sharpener Morihiro-san. Now in his early 40s, Tadokoro-san already has 25 years of experience under his belt. Tadokoro knives are forged by Sakai's famous Shiraki Hamono, then grinded and finished by Tadokoro-san in Tosa, following the finest 30+ steps finishing tradition he mastered. Tadokoro knives are absolutely superior when it comes to their grind and their finishing details. 

Care:

Shirogami #2 (white #2) steel is one of the most popular types of high carbon steel found in Japanese kitchen knives (Wa Knives). It is not stainless, therefore you must wipe your knife dry after each use. Patina will develop over time. Rust may develop if left in prolonged contact with water or acidic food. Use a rust eraser to clean if rusts develop. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethylene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

Keyboard and mouse combo IPAD
Color: Yellow, Color: Yellow
It’s perfect and super cheap. Makes iPad into a mini pc, mouse and keyboard lights in different colors, for under 50 dollars that’s pretty good. Considering the official Apple magic keyboard is 250.00 with no mouse, and no color on their keyboard options.

Very sparkly!
Color: Pink
My iPad fits perfectly with only a small issue that it pops out in the corners easily if not careful. I am a gently user anyway so that’s a non issue for me. It’s easy to keep clean, the keyboard and mouse work flawlessly and were easy to connect.

My daughter loves this for Roblox
Color: A-Pink
This 11th gen iPad case with keyboard is exactly what I needed. The case feels sturdy and protective without being too bulky, and the keyboard connects instantly with no lag. The keys have a nice, comfortable feel—much better than I expected for a compact keyboard. I love that the case has multiple viewing angles and holds the iPad firmly in place. The built-in keyboard makes typing so much easier for work, school, or travel, and the battery life lasts a long time between charges. Overall, it’s a great all-in-one setup that turns the iPad into a mini laptop. Excellent quality, great fit, and definitely worth the purchase!
