chisels have a steel ring called a katsura on the end of the wooden handle.\u003cbr\u003eBefore using the chisel for the first time, the katsura needs to be prepared.\u003cbr\u003eThis helps prevent the handle from cracking and makes the tool safer and longer‑lasting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 1: Remove the Katsura\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLightly tap the end of the handle with a wooden mallet to loosen and remove the katsura.\u003cbr\u003eDo not pry it off with force, because it may bend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 2: Chamfer the Katsura\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUse a file to round (chamfer) the edge of the katsura.\u003cbr\u003eSome katsura are already chamfered, so check first.\u003cbr\u003eThe katsura has a correct direction:\u003cbr\u003e- Thick side → end of the handle\u003cbr\u003e- Thin side → blade direction\u003cbr\u003eWhen chamfering, file the thin side at a shallow angle.\u003cbr\u003eIf the handle is not chamfered, the sharp edge of the katsura will cut into the wood.\u003cbr\u003eThen it will not go in deeply and may come loose later.\u003cbr\u003eIf you are unsure which side is up, try inserting it lightly and see which way fits better.\u003cbr\u003eA good chamfer angle is 20–30 degrees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 3: Adjust the Handle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter removing the katsura, there may be a small step or uneven area.\u003cbr\u003eTrim this area neatly using a chisel, plane, or file.\u003cbr\u003eA recommended method in Japan is called KIGOROSHI.\u003cbr\u003eThis means lightly hitting the wood to compress the fibers.\u003cbr\u003eCompressed wood makes it easier to insert the katsura, and later the wood expands again to hold it tightly.\u003cbr\u003eDo not hit too hard.\u003cbr\u003eIf you overdo it, the wood fibers will not recover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 4: Reinstall the Katsura\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePush the katsura onto the handle by hand as far as you can.\u003cbr\u003eThen tap it in evenly with a wooden mallet.\u003cbr\u003eDo not hit it directly with metal.\u003cbr\u003eThe ideal position is about 2 mm from the end of the handle.\u003cbr\u003eIf the handle sticks out too much, it will become soft over time and reduce the chisel’s performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 5: Adjust the End of the Handle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTap the end of the handle little by little while rotating it.\u003cbr\u003eThis spreads the corners outward.\u003cbr\u003eIt is fine as long as the crushed corners overlap the katsura.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg
