The company's emphasis on utility, durability, and adherence to the strictest international standards is undoubtedly why their products are relied on by people across Japan, from engineers to boy scouts. And yet, in spite of their success, Bagworks continues to strive for a surprisingly humble goal: to become "the most decent bag shop in the world."

Bagworks Toolman Bag
$ 138.00 USD
Despite its utilitarian name, the Toolman Bag from Bagworks is more than just a home for blue-collar implements; it's a chic, practical accessory for all walks of life, one that sports a clean, angular design and long-lasting construction. Each bag is made from 15 oz Army Duck canvas - a durable material formed from tightly woven cotton threads and processed with paraffin for superior water resistance. Somehow, though, this spacious bag remains both soft and pliable, offering a level of comfort and versatility typically reserved for fine leather wares.

Higonokami Folding Knife
$ 22.00 USD
This cult classic pocket knife has been produced in Japan since 1904. Made from carbon steel for strength, the Higonokami pocket knife features a hand-forged blade that folds into the base and a small latch to reopen it safely. The Japanese characters for Higonokami are engraved on the metallic base, letting you carry a little piece of Japanese history with you wherever you go. Not for use on a keychain.
About Higonokami Knives
In the 19th century, a blacksmith in Kyushu is said to have added a simple lever to a basic pocket knife to help open and close the blade more easily. The knife proved to be successful and a guild was formed to oversee the manufacturing of the knife. Only those belonging to the guild could manufacture the knife and use the respected name Higo No Kami, which translates to "Lord of Higo" in honor of the Lord of Kyushu. Today, each higonokami knife is still handmade by the last remaining maker in the guild, Nagao Seisakusho.
Materials: Nickel, carbon steel
Dimensions: Blade: 1.5"; Folded: 2.05"
Care: After use, wipe away any stains with a cloth and camellia oil or other anti-rust oils. Store in a place free from moisture.

Hirali Tenugui
$ 28.00 USD
A longtime fixture in Japanese homes, the tenugui is an all-purpose textile with as many applications as you can imagine. Add a reversible Hirali tenugui to your wardrobe as a bold accessory, or repurpose it as a table runner your friends will love. Give a tenugui as a decorative gift, or grab one to dress up your bento box. When used as a towel, tenugui soak up moisture quickly and dry nearly as fast - thanks to the lack of a hem - making them handy additions to any kitchen or bathroom. Try a tenugui for yourself and experience a perfect combination of function and form.
Learn about the craft behind the creation of Hirali textiles and the inspiration for their vibrant motifs in the rikumo journal.
Please note: Tenugui are purposefully designed without hems, which means that some initial fraying is normal. Do not pull loose threads; instead, trim them with scissors. The frayed edge will develop a natural fringe over time.
