Description from the seller

Japan – Oversized Forged Nomi Chisels – 5-Piece Set – 27–33 cm – Traditional Carpentry Tools

Item Description

A substantial set of five oversized Japanese chisels (Nomi), featuring robust forged steel blades and traditional wooden handles. These tools are significantly larger than standard woodworking chisels, making them suitable for heavy-duty carpentry, timber framing, or as collectible examples of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.

The chisels display a well-used patina consistent with age and practical use, adding character and authenticity. Their impressive dimensions and weight make this an attractive set for collectors of Japanese tools, woodworkers, or enthusiasts of antique craftsmanship.
