KAKURI Japanese Wood Chisel Set 3-Piece – Made in Japan | Oire Nomi

A compact, capable 3-piece chisel set

Meet the KAKURI Japanese Wood Chisel Set, a compact 3-piece toolkit crafted in Japan for precise woodworking. This set blends traditional craftsmanship with modern engineering to deliver clean, controlled chiseling across a range of tasks—from quick detailing to mortises and dovetails. The trio of blades, along with a sturdy white oak handle, helps you approach projects with confidence and focus, whether you’re new to woodworking or expanding an existing toolkit.

Sharp, durable blades you can rely on

The blades feature laminated Japanese high-carbon steel with a softer iron exterior. This construction supports long-lasting sharpness and makes sharpening with a whetstone straightforward. The back of each blade is hollow-ground to reduce weight and resistance, while chamfered edges on both sides contribute to smoother, cleaner cuts with less effort.

• Blade widths: 9 mm, 15 mm, and 24 mm for versatility from fine detailing to mortising.
• Chamfered edges on both sides minimize cutting resistance for cleaner chiseling.
• Made in Japan and handcrafted by skilled Japanese craftsmen for authentic quality.

Solid handling for hammering and control

The blade-to-handle connection features a hoop-reinforced grip made from Japanese white oak. This design supports hammering and steady control, helping you feel balanced and secure as you work through tasks that demand precision and patience.
