Vintage Japanese Chisel Laminated Forged Iron Blade Nomi Red Oak Handle 1/4"

Vintage Japanese nomi are truly impressive in the quality of their steel. This exceptional Japanese nomi (chisel) was made around 60 years in the tradition of the samurai sword, with high carbon laminated steel that holds an edge like no other in the world. It was used for precise paring and finishing of many kinds of wood joinery. This is a nice blade, great for all around detail or paring work.

It has been well used yet well loved and is still razor sharp. This chisel remains in very good condition. Overall it measures 8" long (20 cm) with a nomi blade that is 1/4" wide (6mm) wide. A great sized nomi you will enjoy for a lifetime before passing it onto another generation.
