Item Overview This is an exceptional collection of vintage Japanese professional woodworking tools, featuring 2 Kanna (Hand Planes) and 6 Nomi (Chisels). Kanna (Planes): Includes a prominent plane marked with the brand "Inari" (稲荷), known for its reliable craftsmanship. The bodies (Dai) are made of seasoned Japanese oak. Nomi (Chisels): A diverse set of six chisels, including a specialized crank-neck chisel and various widths for intricate joinery. One chisel features the esteemed "Betsu Goro" (別五郎) label, signifying high-quality laminated steel. Craftsmanship: These tools are forged using traditional Japanese methods, where hard carbon steel is laminated to a softer iron backing, allowing for an incredibly sharp and durable edge. This set is perfect for collectors of traditional artisan tools or woodworkers looking to restore and use authentic Japanese steel. Condition Details Vintage Status: These are authentic used tools with a rich history and patina. Steel/Body: There is visible surface rust and signs of use on the metal parts and wooden handles/bodies, consistent with their age. Maintenance Required: To reach their full potential, the blades will require sharpening and the plane bodies may need minor tuning. This "project" aspect is highly valued by enthusiasts. Environment: Stored in a smoke-free, temperature-controlled professional environment to prevent further degradation.
