Handcrafted in Japan for exceptional durability. Each hatchet has unique characteristics. Dimensions: 140mm (5.5in) (Single Bevel) blade length, 70mm (2.8in) blade height, 7mm (0.28in) blade thickness above heel, 460mm (18.1in) overall length, and 700g (24.7oz) weight. Blade material is cutlery-grade carbon steel. Great for pruning branches and twigs. Designed for right-handed users with a cherry tree handle and leather sheath for protection. Japanese quality craftsmanship.
The product seems rougher than machine made ones, but the quality is great, which you cannot feel with machine made one! We do not recommend this for those who do not like small irregularities, as this is a handmade, it could have some. We will not accept any return requests and claims on small flaws proof of handmade.
To protect the blade from rust during shipment, we apply a specialized varnish coating. As a result, the cutting performance may initially feel diminished.
The varnish will gradually wear off through regular use, but if you wish to experience the blade’s true sharpness sooner, it can be removed using nail polish remover or a similar lacquer thinner.
Please note that once the varnish is removed, the blade becomes more susceptible to rust.
We recommend thoroughly wiping off moisture after use and applying camellia oil or similar protective oil to maintain its condition.
