Description from the seller
Item Overview
This is a premium collection of 9 Traditional Japanese Woodworking Planes (Kanna). Known worldwide for their exceptional steel quality and precision, these tools are the backbone of Japanese temple building and fine cabinetry. This set includes a variety of sizes and types (including standard smoothing planes and potentially specialty edge planes), making it a comprehensive starter set for a craftsman or a significant addition to a tool collection. Antique Japanese steel is highly regarded for its ability to hold a razor-sharp edge, often considered superior to modern mass-produced alternatives.
Condition Details
Status: Vintage / Used.
Details: These items show a beautiful, authentic patina consistent with age and professional use. The wooden bodies (dai) show natural wear, and the steel blades (ba) exhibit some surface oxidation, which is typical for carbon steel of this era and can be restored through traditional sharpening.
Storage: Kept in a temperature-controlled, smoke-free environment to prevent further deterioration.
Important Notes for Buyers
Condition: These are vintage tools. Please inspect the photos carefully as they form part of the description.
Returns: No returns accepted.
Recommendation: To ensure a smooth transaction, we strongly recommend recording a continuous unboxing video from the moment you open the package as proof of condition upon arrival.
Shipping Information
Carrier: Shipped via FedEx or Japan Post (EMS) for reliable global delivery.
Packaging: Securely packed with shock-absorbing materials to ensure the heavy steel and wooden components are protected during transit.
Tracking: A tracking number will be provided immediately after dispatch.
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.
