KAKURI Wood Marking Gauge for Woodworking, KEBIKI Japanese Wood Scribe Tool for Carpentry

KAKURI, the Japanese Carpentry Tool Brand, was founded in 1946 in Sanjo City, the leading production area of cutlery in Japan. Drawing on more than 70 years of experience and results since its founding, the company designs and manufactures hand-made products of superior quality and functions, including gardening tools, saws, chisels, and professional carpenter tools. From a professional standpoint, KAKURI selects and sells only high-quality products, allowing customers to feel and enjoy the authentic Japanese craftsmanship of the KAKURI brand.

The KAKURI Woodworking Japanese Marking Gauge is a prime example of the brand's expertise. This Japanese woodworking marking scriber, called SUJI KEBIKI, allows users to draw parallel lines with a certain width from the edge of the wood, with the width easily adjustable. It is a Japanese professional carpenter tool that enables precise wood marking.

To use the KAKURI Marking Gauge, users first loosen the screw and adjust the length of the rod to the desired width, then lightly tighten the screw. They can then turn the tool over and check the width from the body to the blade using a ruler, making fine adjustments by tapping the end of the rod. After checking the length, the screws are firmly tightened. It's important to note that the printed scale on the rod is only a rough guide, and users should always check the width with an accurate ruler.

When marking a line, the user holds the body firmly against the edge of the wood and pulls it towards them with a light force, avoiding trying to draw a deep line at once. This allows for an accurate line to be made by marking it repeatedly with a light touch. After drawing the line, the user can then cut the wood with a saw, making the KAKURI Marking Gauge a convenient woodworking tool for projects requiring pieces of the same width.

The KAKURI Marking Gauge features a storable cutting edge, with the blade able to be stored in the wooden body when not in use, making it a safe and convenient carpentry tool. The wooden body is made of natural bamboo, which is lightweight and comfortable to hold, and all KAKURI brand products are manufactured in Japan and handcrafted by Japanese craftsmen.

In addition to the Marking Gauge, KAKURI offers a wide range of authentic Japanese woodworking tools, including planes, chisels, drills, hammers, and saws, all of which are designed and produced with the same attention to quality and craftsmanship. The KAKURI brand is a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese carpentry and a must-have for any woodworking enthusiast.
