The products we offer are the culmination of a rich Japanese tradition and extensive knowledge that has been cultivated over a long history of meticulous handcrafting. We are proud to introduce three major features that distinguish our chisels from their Western counterparts.
Firstly, our Japanese chisels are characterized by their unique double-layer steel blades, which provide excellent cutting performance and ease of sharpening. The two distinct layers of soft iron and carbon steel work in harmony to reduce the risk of chipping the blade. Additionally, the slightly beveled back of the blade helps to minimize friction with the cutting material, facilitating a smooth and efficient cutting process.
Secondly, the handle of our Japanese chisels features a metal ring (known as a "katsura") that can be hammered. This innovative design element not only enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the tool but also contributes to its durability and functionality. The sturdy metal ring reinforces the handle, ensuring a secure and comfortable grip during use.
In terms of blade specifications, our chisels are available in a range of widths to cater to various woodworking tasks. The blade widths offered are 9mm (approximately 3/8 inches), 15mm (approximately 19/32 inches), and 24mm (approximately 16/15 inches), providing users with the flexibility to choose the most suitable tool for their project requirements.
The exceptional quality of our Japanese chisels is further enhanced by the use of hand-forged, high-carbon steel that has been meticulously heat-treated to achieve a hardness of HRC63. This exceptional level of hardness ensures the blades maintain their keen edge for extended periods, allowing users to work with confidence and efficiency.
The single hollow-ground back of our chisels reduces the contact area with the workpiece, minimizing friction and facilitating smooth, controlled cutting. This design feature, combined with the well-balanced Shirakashi (Japanese White Oak) handles, provides users with a comfortable and responsive experience during use.
Lastly, it is worth noting that our Japanese chisels are delivered to you in a sharpened state, ready to be put to work immediately upon arrival. These premium tools are imported directly from Japan, ensuring that you receive the highest quality craftsmanship and performance.
In conclusion, our Japanese chisels are the result of a rich cultural heritage and a commitment to excellence in woodworking tools. With their unique features, exceptional materials, and impeccable craftsmanship, these chisels are a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese artistry and the pursuit of perfection.
