KAKURI JAPANESE HAMMER BENEFITS: - Made in Japan using quality Japanese steel - Moderately weighted head requires less power - Double face for nailing - flat for most use, domed for finish - Best for nailing, planing, chiseling, and more - Heavy-duty double wedge construction

As a leading brand of carpentry tools for beginners and professionals, KAKURI produces not only hammers but also high-quality planes, chisels, saws, and woodworking knives. The Japanese traditional woodworking hammer, called "Genno," has a double face - a flat face for most hammering and a curved "Kigoroshi" side for the final nail set without damaging the wood surface.

All KAKURI hammers are manufactured in Sanjo, Japan by master craftsmen, utilizing the skills and craftsmanship that have consistently produced carpentry tools since 1946. Please feel the authentic Japanese quality of these tools.

How to use the Japanese woodworking hammer: 1. Chiseling - Great for hitting Japanese wood chisels for accurate cutting, mortising, chopping, paring, and shaping. 2. Adjusting and setting planes - Essential for adjusting the blade on Japanese block planes to achieve a beautifully smooth wood surface. 3. Nailing - An ideal hammer for driving nails, especially when used with a pilot hole drilled in advance. Start with the flat face, then switch to the domed face for the finish strike to avoid damaging the wood.

In addition to the Japanese hammer, KAKURI offers a full line of high-quality woodworking tools, including planes, chisels, manual drills, and sharpening jigs - all made in Japan by skilled craftsmen.
