Description from the seller

This fine-tuning plane set—comprising a standard plane and a mini-plane—features premium "Blue Paper" steel and stands as a classic tool for precision Japanese-style woodworking.
Each plane features a body crafted from natural hardwood and a hand-forged blade made from Japan's finest "Blue Paper" steel. The dual-screw micro-adjustment mechanism allows for precise control over the blade's cutting depth, making these tools ideal for delicate surface finishing, chamfering, and shaping curved contours—processes central to Japanese woodworking. The plane bodies are engraved with the "Aogami-awase: Kikuchiya" brand insignia, and a label marks them as "Specially Selected" (Tokusen); the blades arrive razor-sharp and ready for immediate use.
