MISSION
Our mission is to spread ideas from Japan by tapping on your knee.
- The Japanese name for Japan is Nippon (pronounced Knee-pon).Also, the sound 'pon' can represent a tapping sound in the Japanese language.
Moreover, when Japanese people are surpised or impresed by something, they say it taps them on the knee.Therefore, we devised the name knee-pon to represent our jaw-dropping creations emanating from Japan.
