Small Japanese Adzes

Small Japanese Adzes

At just 400 g light, with a cutting width of just 30 mm, and total lenght of 230 mm, these small adzes are the ultimate in handy little tools. As in many traditional Japanese cutting tools, the heads are made of a two-layer laminated steel - a cutting edge in hard "Hagane" steel, forged to a softer, tougher body to provide strength.

We have two models of this type of adze: one with the cutting edge outside and the bevel on the inside, and one with the cutting edge in, and the bevel out. The second model is more familiar to us, as all adzes in Europe are made with the bevel on the outside and the cutting edge inside. Given the same cutting angle, an outside bevel permits one to remove more wood at a stroke.
