This Japanese "Nagadai" type plane (jointer plane) has a 70mm wide blade. Nagadai for Long Dai. The Kanna is vintage new and imported directly from Japan. It was forged by a blacksmith from the "Tsunesaburo" lineage, though I do not know which one precisely.
The Dai (wooden block) is Japanese white oak. It is perfectly new; the blade is still wrapped in its anti-humidity paper and original packaging. You should know that at the time, dais were not adjusted, and this is the case for this one. Therefore, the bed for the blade will need to be fully adapted to it using the oil and graphite pencil technique.
The Dai measures: length 397mm, width 84mm, thickness 36mm. The sole will need to be flattened and readjusted. Indeed, over time the wood moves, so it will need to be flattened and tuned.
It was forged during the "Showa" period (70s). The blade is hand-forged, dual-layer carbon steel. It is impossible to say which type of steel it is given the era. However, the forge mark indicates that it is an equivalent to Aogami (blue high-carbon steel). This kanna is from a very good forge. The blade is sharp, but as with any new blade, fine sharpening is to be expected (6000-8000 grit).
It can be used in joinery to prepare long and very flat surfaces. It can be used for making panel joints, flattening a tabletop, or making long strips. It is the perfect kanna to deepen your use of long Japanese planes.
Unlike European planes, Japanese planes are pulled instead of pushed.
With this tool, you will be able to discover Japanese tools. For cabinetmakers, luthiers, sculptors, carpenters, or simply handymen.
