I have a large collection of Japanese chisels, so if you don’t see what you’re looking for in my store, please send me a message and I will check my inventory. I have multiples of this item so the one you receive may not match the photo but it will be in similar condition. This is a Japanese chisel set made by master blacksmith Kakusaburo Ouchi, the second generation Ouchi, using traditional forging techniques with laminated steel construction. The high carbon steel provides an extremely sharp edge while the soft backing steel provides toughness and durability. Condition: New old stock. The chisels have never been sharpened or used and are in excellent condition, there are some light marks, stains, patina, etc from storage. As this is an unused item, you will need to set up and sharpen the chisels. These are as close to brand new as you will find for the age (likely 50+ years old). The style is Mukoumachi or mortise chisel in western terms. It’s a thick chisel with straight sides which makes it ideal for chopping mortises. Length: 240mm 9 1/2. Blacksmith: Ouchi – the second generation, Kakusaburo Ouchi. Hard Steel: Hitachi white paper steel. Style: Mokoumachi (mortise chisel). Handle Wood: Shiragashi (Japanese White Oak).
