AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Item Overview
This is a premium collection of 9 vintage Japanese woodworking planes (Kanna). This set includes various sizes and brands, featuring renowned names such as "Ougiri" (扇利).
Japanese Kanna are world-renowned for their exceptional steel quality, typically using laminated high-carbon steel (Yasuki Hagane) fused with soft iron. These tools are designed for professional Japanese carpentry (Daiku) and offer precision that modern factory tools cannot replicate. This bulk set is an excellent opportunity for collectors, restorers, or woodworkers looking to own authentic Japanese blacksmith-made tools.

Condition Details
Vintage / Used Condition. The wooden bodies (Dai) show natural aging and signs of use, which is typical for authentic antique tools. The blades possess a rich patina and some surface rust, consistent with their age. These planes are being sold as-is, providing a perfect project for those who enjoy the traditional process of sharpening and tuning (Dai-naoshi) to bring these masterpieces back to life. They have been kept in a smoke-free environment.

Important Notes for Buyers
No returns accepted. Please review the photos carefully before bidding.

To ensure a smooth transaction, we strongly recommend recording an unboxing video from the moment you open the package as proof of condition upon arrival.

As these are vintage tools, they require maintenance (sharpening and adjustment) before professional use.

Shipping Information
Shipping Method: Shipped via FedEx or Japan Post (EMS/International ePacket).

Tracking: A tracking number will be provided immediately after dispatch.

Packaging: Securely and meticulously packed using bubble wrap and sturdy cardboard to ensure they arrive safely across the globe.

International Buyers – Please Note
Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.
