NOTICE:
Traditional Japanese woodworking tools distinguish themselves with extremely good edge retention. They are however made from carbon steel, very hard but also brittle (more brittle than most people are used to) and rusting. Therefore take good care of this tool, keep the tool clean after use and wipe the blade down with camelia oil ocasionally. We offer a Steel Maintenance Package great for all Japanese edge tools.
Dimensions may vary slightly and body might differ in colour and grain from those showed in the pictures. These variations in no way affect the quality of a chisel but rather add a touch of uniqueness.
