KAKURI Japanese Block Plane 50mm for Woodworking, Kanna Japanese Smoothing Plane Manual Hand Planer for Finishing Wood, 9.5 x 2.5 x 2.3 inches, ECO Oak Body, Made in Japan

JAPANESE MANUAL WOOD PLANE "KANNA": This is a traditional Japanese woodworking plane, perfect for smoothing wood surfaces. Unlike Western planes, Japanese planes are pulled towards you, allowing for more consistent, controlled cuts with less effort. They require fine-tuning of the blade with a hammer before use. KAKURI's plane is trusted by both beginners and professional woodworkers. LARGE SIZE, EASY HANDLING: This is a large-sized plane designed to be gripped firmly with both hands. Its balanced weight provides stability, making it easy to pull smoothly while efficiently covering larger surfaces in a single pass. This size is also ideal for woodworking beginners. RAZOR-SHARP BLADE: This plane features Japanese steel, laminated with soft iron and hand-sharpened by skilled craftsmen. It delivers an incredibly smooth finish on wood and is ready to use right out of the box. The soft iron lamination increases blade durability and makes sharpening easier, ensuring long-lasting performance. With a two-blade structure that includes a chipbreaker, it minimizes wood splitting compared to single-blade planes, offering a safer, more reliable planing experience. DURABLE WOOD BODY: The body is made from natural Japanese oak, known for its durability and ability to provide a smooth planing experience. *To be environmentally conscious and reduce costs, KAKURI uses oak from areas closer to the tree’s core (ECO Oak), which may show distinct grain patterns but does not compromise quality or performance.
