This "Hira Kanna" Japanese plane has a 70mm wide blade. The plane is vintage and pre-owned, in very good condition. It was forged by the sought-after "Fusaito Yamaguchi" in Miki. The signature on the back is typical. It is a kanna appreciated and sought after by Japanese plane enthusiasts. The Yamaguchi name is prestigious, with some Kezuroukai having won the competition with this blade.
The Dai (Japanese white oak block) is solid and in good condition. The sole is straight and has been beveled on the sides. The Dai measures: length 289mm, width 87mm, height 36mm.
The iron is made of hand-forged, bi-layer "special" carbon super steel. Some blacksmiths keep the composition of certain ranges secret. The edge performs well. The Ura (back of the iron) is clean. The chip breaker is thick and also laminated. This is the type of chip breaker found on all high-end planes. It has a polished finish and its Ura is particularly well-executed.
This kanna is of excellent forge. It is indeed the work of this class of craftsman who works with the greatest devotion to their craft.
This is a high-end plane for an experienced user or a user who would like to take it to the next level. It can be used in joinery, on timber framing pieces, or on cabinetmaking panel work. The plane can be delivered raw or tuned (the sole) according to your preference (finishing or stock removal).
Unlike European planes, Japanese planes are pulled instead of pushed.
With this tool, you can discover Japanese tools. For collectors, cabinetmakers, sculptors, carpenters, or simply (advanced) handymen.
