What kind of chuck are these guys using?

I've seen a lot of Japanese turners using this type of chuck, but I have no idea what it is or where to find one. Any ideas? Whether you know or not, these are really cool videos. The third one shows him mounting the wood.

The 0.53 second mark in the third video shows the "chuck" really well. :-)

I have not seen it but it might be a pin chuck.

As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

Watching him drive the wood on and still have it not fully centered tells me it's a tapered (friction) mandrel.
Better to follow the leader than the pack. Less to step in.

When he takes the piece off there's just a ring in the wood. It's almost like it's a circular blade. I've never seen anything like it. Been searching all the tool shops out of curiosity, of course.

Try a Steb center.

Look at 4:10 in the 1st video. Looks like a screw chuck on the end of a taper.If you look close you will see him unscrew it off the chuck. I want one.

At about 40 seconds this gent appears to be using a plane blade without a tool rest:

It appears he's using similar to how a person would use a card scraper, I can see how that would work. He's also got his arms braced against the tool rest while he's using it.
