Additional Information: Unused, in good condition. It comes from the collection of a carpenter in the Tokyo area, who purchased it from the Naohei store in Tokyo about 20 years ago. The chisels made by blacksmiths at that time were more precise than those made in recent years. This chisel appears to be specially made; it is longer than chu-tataki chisel, and the blade is made thinner. It is more suitable for use in the final precision stage.

※ There is a rust mark on the "ura", but it is shallow and can be easily removed with sharpening. The blade has a small notch and needs to be sharpened before use.
