What makes them Japanese? I don't recall seeing them here, but I've never paid much attention to sawhorses since I've been renting (until next month!).
Well it’s how it has two legs going straight up and down, vs 4 legs which are angled. Idk I’ve never been to Japan (must be nice!!) but that seems to be the difference
They look somewhat similar in design to the Japanese planing beam inspired sawhorses made by Len Cullum. FWW has a bit write up on it here:

Neat. Thanks!
Any open source designs for these?
I'd be curious about the joint fabrication.Thanks! This was my inspiration but I did all different joints. I used bridle joints on top and half-laps for the legs and stretcher.
That table saw picture makes my fingers crawl
Cool pegs! Did you use any nails or screws?
Thank you! No nails or screws, just the 3/4” dowels glued in
Neat.
