LOBTEX CO.,LTD.

LOBTEX CO.,LTD.

We are a tool manufacturer founded in 1888 to meet the needs of manufacturing professionals and foster the joy of manufacturing. Our history began when we invented the two-handed hair clipper and spread it throughout Japan. In 1928, the mainstream of work tools at that time were either expensive imports or handmade by craftsmen, but we started producing monkey wrenches domestically in order to be of service to craftsmen. Since then, we have continued to manufacture high quality products in order to provide everyone who uses our tools with a sense of joy, satisfaction, and accomplishment in making things.

story

  1. High quality miniature monkey wrench, the crystallization of manufacturing technology founded 133 years ago!
  2. Real quality even if it is small! Firmly functioning!
  3. Perfect for collections and gifts!

What is "with Monki"?

Founded 133 years, monkey wrench manufacturing more than 90 years

Long-established tool brand "LOBSTER" that is particular about Made in Japan

I want people who love manufacturing to always feel that feeling close to them ...

With that in mind, the technology of "forging" remains the same.

You can carry it anytime, anywhere

A miniature size monkey wrench "with monkey" was born!

story-image

By carrying around, you can tighten nuts up to 13 mm in diameter anytime, anywhere.

story-image

Outstanding durability

With over 90 years of forging technology (described later), it lasts a long time!

Become a lifelong companion

Easy to grasp with little backlash

Because it is genuine quality, there is little rattling and you can firmly grasp and turn it!

Condensed forging technology by skilled craftsmen

What is "forging"?

It is a manufacturing method that heats a metal material and hits it with a hammer many times to bring it closer to the shape of the product. (Imagine a swordsmith, etc.)

Compared to the casting method in which iron is melted and poured into a mold, mass production is not possible, but the feature is that by carefully striking each one, it is finished with firm strength.

story-image

story-image

Shrimp stamp tool craftsmanship

Some things can only be made by our Hammerman (a skilled craftsman with forging technology).

Forging is the process of heating materials and using human limbs to create products.

Hold the material with your hand (hashi) and operate the hammer with your foot (foot pedal).

With the eyes of a craftsman, determine the state (temperature) of the material heated in red,

Hit weakly,

Hit hard,

Hit late,

Hit fast,

Hit with good rhythm,

You can use different methods of striking and train the materials efficiently without waste.

story-image

The products made by our Hammerman are products with beautiful forged skin and outstanding durability .

"With Monkey" is a small but large monkey wrench in exactly the same process and made in the same way.

Is it easy to make because it is small?

No, it's not!

The smaller one is harder to make, that is the forged monkey wrench.

story-image

More than 90 years of history and tradition inherited from our seniors

It's packed in this little "with Monki".

story-image

A gem that satisfies the desire for ownership ...!

story-image

Part of the interior or as a charm on the bag ...

Please enjoy it as a fashion item ♪

To that person who loves tools ... as a gift

story-image

If you order the "name-inserted specification", the specified alphabet will be laser-marked on the handle of the monkey wrench.

It is perfect as a memorable item in the world.

* "LOBSTER 1888" is a sample character.

* The number of characters that can be engraved is up to 14 letters (alphanumericals, commas) .

Project background

Let's make things!

Thoughts on "manufacturing" that have not changed even 130 years after the company was founded

And now I want to make DIY a culture

Take pride in what you make, fix, and maintain

I put the tricks I have cultivated over many years into this monkey wrench.

To all "creators"

We will deliver genuine quality even though it is small .

story-image

To everyone who supports "cultivating the enjoyment of manufacturing"

story-image

We are actively participating in workshops and DIY events at elementary schools with the concept of " cultivating the enjoyment of manufacturing " as our vision.

And the goal is to continue that activity and further expand it .

We would like all of you who support LOBTEX to purchase "with Monki".

And I would like to further carry out activities to "cultivate the enjoyment of manufacturing" and make DIY a culture together with everyone.

With that in mind, I launched the project.

Would you like to become a member of " cultivating the joy of manufacturing " with us ?
