弥作 鏝鑿 鎬型 Yasaku Trowel chisel (Kote nomi) Dovetail type

I have ordered many fine tools from Kurashige and hope to finally visit the store in person in the new year. Every order over the years has been well packaged and has arrived in good condition. Looking forward to using the Kote Nomi during my next project.

Im an aussie that prefers Japanese chisels, kote nomi isnt really available to buy in Australia, also its hard to know if your getting an authentic hand forged kote-shinogi-oire nomi thats made from a laminated white paper steel. Tbh the kote nomi is probably one of the most useful chisels, i use it for pairing, and joinery that a normal chisel cant reach. Sharpens easy, definitely need to set the bevel at 30 degrees though if your working with hard wood like Australian trees

Fantastic service and delivery to the UK was super fast. Beautifully crafted chisels and take a razor sharp edge within minutes. Used them to pare some dovetails and they are a joy to use.
