Several Japanese makers made slide rules that were sold under a wide variety of brand names in different countries. Relay-Ricoh was one such maker and Fuji was another. The latter made slide rules sold under the Jakar name in the UK. Japanese maker Concise was one of the largest makers of circular slide rules and still makes them.
