Title
10 Vintage Japanese Nomi Chisels
Item Overview
This is a professional-grade set of 10 traditional Japanese woodworking chisels (Nomi). Hand-forged using the "Sumi-nagashi" or "Awase" technique, these tools bond extremely hard high-carbon steel (Hagane) with a softer iron backing (Jigane), providing an edge that stays sharp far longer than standard Western chisels.
• Quantity: 10 pieces
• Variety: Includes various widths (e.g., 15mm clearly marked) for different joinery tasks.
• Era: Vintage (Showa period).
• Maker Marks: Some handles feature engravings (e.g., "Gomi") and original manufacturer stickers, signifying authentic Japanese craftsmanship.
Condition Details
These tools are in vintage, pre-owned condition. They possess a beautiful, authentic patina and minor surface oxidation consistent with their age, which many collectors prefer. The wooden handles are structurally sound, with some featuring the traditional iron hoops (Katsura) for heavy striking. Some blades may require professional sharpening to reach their peak performance, a common practice and joy for Japanese tool enthusiasts.
