Shredding Scissors by Evan Orensten
With the rise in identity theft and the unrelenting solicitation from credit card companies it makes sense to shred all of the offers that hit your mailbox. Power shredders don't make the cut for the most attractive items in the house (there's an opportunity), take up a lot of space, and use electricity. These Japanese shredding scissors provide an inexspensive (under $20) and green solution to the problem. They are handy for light shredding needs at the office or all those times you wish you had some home made confetti.

Split Ruler
A cleverly subtle (and totally Japanese) update to the classic wooden ruler, the Split Ruler by Tokyo-based Cina has a pencil-shaped cut-out for placing pens or pencils when not in use. The duo behind Cina are the same two behind the snowflake-patterned flash drives that have been circulating around the internet this week, but in this case we're more captivated by the reinvention of...
