Vintage Japanese Hand Plane (Kanna) and 7 Woodworking Chisels (Nomi) – Traditional Carpenter's Tools

Item Description
A vintage set of traditional Japanese woodworking tools consisting of a wooden hand plane (Kanna) and several Japanese woodworking chisels (Nomi). These tools were used by carpenters and woodworkers for precision woodworking, joinery, and finishing work.

The hand plane features a wooden body with a steel blade and displays signs of age and use consistent with its vintage character. The chisels have forged steel blades with wooden handles and show oxidation, surface rust, wear, and patina acquired through years of use.

This lot offers an authentic glimpse into traditional Japanese craftsmanship and would be suitable for collectors, woodworking enthusiasts, restorers, or as a decorative display of historical tools.

Please carefully examine the photographs for details regarding condition, dimensions, completeness, and wear.
