Japanese plane Azumagenji 60 mm

The Azumagenji meet the highest quality requirements and are very suitable for the carpenter who prefers to work with the best tools. The plane irons of these planes are forged, or "laminated", layer by layer. The planes bear the name of the master blacksmith "Azumagenji" who made them piece by piece with extreme care and by hand. The special attention during production and the steel used result in an exceptionally high quality. The special "Blue Paper Steel" from Hitachi is ideal as a base for these special irons. The machining by the master blacksmith makes the steel harder and makes it possible to grind the steel even sharper. This benefits the tool life and precision. Not only the plane iron, but also the chipbreaker of this Japanese plane has been carefully forged and machined. Their perfect interaction shows in the final result of your workpiece.

The planing block is handmade from selected white oak wood. The specially sawn wood has a very long life and has been processed very precisely. The method with which the planing block is sawn determines, among other things, the precision with which you can adjust and use the plane as a joiner.

Also available in 65 mm and 70 mm.

The gouges of these Azumagenji planes can be sharpened. Use the sharpening stones 3000 and 1000 or higher for this.
