The hiramachi-nomi (平待鑿) is a Japanese bench chisel characterized by its flat, horizontal cutting edge and relatively thin blade profile. Unlike the angled mortise chisel, the hiramachi style is designed for paring, trimming, and fine surface work — delivering precise, controlled cuts across the grain or along flat surfaces. A versatile everyday chisel for the serious woodworker.
