KAKURI Corporation was founded in 1946 in Sanjo, the leading production area of cutlery in Japan.
From a professional standpoint, we have designed and made high-quality Japanese products for over 70 years.
Please feel and enjoy authentic Japanese craftsmanship products.
The blade edge is made of Japanese carbon steel and hand sharpened by Japanese craftsmen. It is sharp right out of the box, making a smooth silk surface to the wood.
*Blades need to be tuned before use. Japanese hammer GENNO (8-16 oz) or wooden mallet (36-55 mm) are recommended.
The blade edge (Japanese steel) is laminated by soft iron. The layered construction of the two steel materials increases blade durability and improves sharpening ease. This is the traditional structure of the Japanese-style blade.
KAKURI uses only natural white oak that has been carefully and naturally dried for around three years after logging. Excellent durability and comfort in your hand.
*The oil-finished body is less deformed, slides better on wood, and also the blade can be adjusted more easily.
Each plane is made, tuned, and finished by skilled Japanese craftsmen. Enjoy authentic Japanese woodworking tools.
