This set of Japanese gouges, known as "Sotomaru Nomi," consists of blade widths of 9, 12, 15, 18, and 24mm. These are new vintage gouges (from the 90s) by the "Kenshin" brand.
These are hand-forged, bi-layer white steel carbon gouges. They are imported directly from Japan. Today, this complete set of new gouges is very rare. Furthermore, the few blacksmiths still in operation only make this type of tool on order.
These "Sotomaru Nomi" gouges are 215mm long (Oire Nomi size). They are suitable for carving work involving moldings on furniture.
Like all new chisels, sharpening and hoop adjustment are to be expected. Generally, manufacturers roughly sharpen their production to save time. In Japan, it is always up to the tool owner to finalize and adapt the tool to their own usage; it is a philosophy of the tool...
With these tools, you will be able to discover Japanese tools. For cabinetmakers, luthiers, sculptors, carpenters, or simply handymen.
