KAKURI Japanese Wood Chisel 42mm (1.65") for Woodworking, Made in Japan, Professional Japanese Oire Nomi, Razor Japanese Carbon Steel, White Oak Wood Handle

I've bought a few Kakuri tools in the past (Japanese chisels, planes, hammers and measuring equipment) and I get the impression that they're aimed at the serious DIYer/hobbyist market. They're always high quality, but competitively priced, as is this chisel. Comes sharp and ready to use (apart from driving the top ring more tightly on to the handle, as is the Japanese tradition) and with some pictorial instructions which can be followed without reading Japanese.

Nice!

I had seen good reviews for this brand and wasn't disappointed. The chisel is performing exactly as I had hoped it would. Great product with fast service.

Perfect for home woodworking

Brand-new addition to my chisel set

Better than the English equivalent, I had a fatmax which was really good when it eventually broke I opted for this having started to use a lot of Japanese tools, I'm very happy with the price and quality of this tool.

Had a small ding on the edge so I’ve had to regrind it. Once done it’s a nice chisel and seems to hold an edge.

Excellent

Mine did horizontal paring of tenon in grey iron bark (Australia) straight out of the packet. Excellent. Mike

Good weight, feels nicely balanced in the hand. Steel seems high quality, typical Japanese hardness, so the cutting edge holds its sharpness but it very brittle. Mine was basically sharp, but needed me to add a micro-bevel before it passed the paper cutting test. I think I will get many years of pleasure from using this tool.

Sehr schöner Stechbeitel in einer für Europäer eher ungewöhnlichen Breite; in Japan aber durchaus üblich. Der Stechbeitel muss vor der ersten Verwendung noch eingerichtet werden. Einpassen des Griffs und des Rings sowie Schärfen der Klinge. Wenn man sich hierfür etwas Zeit nimmt bekommt man ein sehr schönes Werkzeug, dass für vielfältige Holzbearbeitungen (Stemmen, Hobeln) genutzt werden kann. Gute Tutorials zum einrichten gibt es bei You Tube oder auch für die Freunde von Büchern in dem Buch die Werkzeuge des japanischen Schreiners von Toshio Odate.

Shipped fast and looked good. As a woodworker and owner of other brands I took a wetstone to the blade, and spent some time on it. It did come pretty sharp but I still did some fine tuning! Strong construction and slices through like butter! Very happy with price and quality! Went back and bought the 4 pcs set !

Me gustó mucho y quisiera saber si no tiene este formon de 1/2 o 1/4?
