Best Hardware Shops in Japan - Cainz Home - One of the Largest in Japan

[@diatonicwastaken]

As someone who works as a merchandiser at Home Depot, the attention to detail and impeccable cleanliness is beyond exceptional. Every display shown was dusted and clean to a shine, the lumber section was clean and organized, and the floors were impeccable as well. Also the fact that the table saw had a system as to prevent any sawdust from escaping and making a mess is quite possibly the most Japanese thing I've seen. Intentional, engineered, and upheld. A work of merchandising art.

Most ACE hardware stores here in the states do screws like you showed. It's an honor system, but incredibly helpful if I only need two specific screws. It'll cost less than a dollar versus going to a big box store and buying a 20 pack for 4 dollars

I was going to say the same thing.

I love walking through Japanese hardwares and tool stores. Joyful Honda Mizuho out near the Yokoda AB is another fantastic hardware. Thanks for the vid.

[@adamallen8863]

Thanks for all your videos this year. I find it so interesting as an Australian Carpenter/Japanese tool enthusiast. Merry Xmas and happy new year.

[@mickmurphy1837]

Ditto that

Please keep making videos like this I could watch your videos for hours on end!

[@deborahf3738]

I think you're trying to tell us to come to Japan for a shopping spree......Thanks for taking us shopping, I love seeing the stores and shops.

[@anthonywall5227]

Thank you

[@susanlooeezy]

Where shall I go in Japan for the best lumber? And by the way, I love your content. You’re just getting better and better at making these videos.

[@RichardDenRooyen1973]

i work in a DIY store myself (Hubo in Kapelle, Netherlands 🤗) and boy, i would love to explore some DIY stores in Japan... it looks great and tidy! 👍👍

[@ComboMuster]

Wow...

[@dawgtheundying5303]

Working at Bunnings in Australia, Cainz feels ao similar but so different at the same time.

[@paulstanding7267]

Hello what was in the Stanley box towards the end of the video. Nice contents. You both have a very nice Xmas and new year. 🎄🎄🎄👍😀😀

[@thecarpentrylife]

Not sure. Maybe a pressure washer or something.

[@skeeter197140]

I don't know why, but when it comes to other countries, I'd rather check out the hardware and grocery stores than the touristy stuff. I guess I'm just really curious how other people go about their daily business.

[@thecarpentrylife]

Same here!

[@RichardDenRooyen1973]

u are not the only one! 🤣

[@lalitaescuela]

Thanks for posting all the video!!!!! I would like to know if there is any book on how houses are built today in Japan, structures, foundations, bolts etc... I am very interested in the process and I can't find anything, I also wanted to suggest that you make an account on Amazon, to put tools and things that you use, for those of us who are outside of Japan we can buy those products..... and in this way you could also have an extra income, thanks again Big hug from Spain

[@MrKikoboy]

Besides this channel you can also check out: www.youtube.com/@ShoyanJapaneseCarpenter for home construction - he has 2 channels 1 in English and 1 in Japanese..

[@Timothylaing]

Shoyan is the man

[@ArasKC]

Hi mate, May ask is that shop locate in Tokyo? And do you know if they sell Anex and Vessel impact bits? Thanks

[@thecarpentrylife]

That one is not in Tokyo. But there are several hardware store in Tokyo that carry bits by the brands you mentioned.

[@ick5353]

What boggles my mind isn’t the selection or availability of products… it’s the amazing cleanliness of the hardware/home store! LOL my local Home Depot/Lowes is a pig sty compared to that store.

[@jomo350350]

🤑makita good prices !!!!!!!!!!

[@uncannyvalleywoods]

Are the cedar 4x4s pressure treated?

[@thecarpentrylife]

Some of the wood in Japan is pressure treated. It can also be order this way.

[@mikaelkorpela]

How's the tool section at these places? Good stuff, variety?

[@thecarpentrylife]

Not bad for DIY.

[@tongtong-bh6rc]

this cainz home near chiba?

[@ianmcginnis1570]

Lowes, Home Depot, ace hardware, pretty much all hardware stores do that.

[@seymourbirkhoff9297]

I love the video, but have to speak up and say that sometimes the phrase we use of "Only in Japan, can you...." is often not true. To this day, here back in the US, you do the same thing with produce every day AND we even have roadside produce/fruit stands based on "honor". You put in at the register how many you have and no one checks.

[@alainthery5224]

Only in Japan can one find the honor system of selecting screws and marking prices? Really? I can understand your passion for Japan but that is far from true. Here in MD several hardware stores use a similar system (and also cut the wood to one's specification). Just sayin'...

[@stevenguevara2184]

I thought they are anti hard ware

[@Timothylaing]

Does anyone in Japan wear hearing protection or is it just not considered cool?

[@thecarpentrylife]

A lot of carpenters will have ear plugs in.
