Where this sits
Manufactured in Japan.
The TADAKUNI MTF and MTJ thinning range covers three tooth configurations: 22-tooth SP1, 27-tooth SP1, and 27-tooth SP2. Tooth count and spacing control the percentage of hair removed per cut — lower counts remove more, higher counts blend more finely. The SP1 and SP2 designations indicate tooth geometry variants within the same count. All variants use an offset handle and are made at TADAKUNI’s Tokoname facility.

Professional Opinion
Tooth count does the talking in this range: the 22-tooth variants take more hair per cut for weight removal, while the 27-tooth options blend more finely for softening cut lines. An offset handle and Tokoname-made build round out a considered thinning tool.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
