Koyamaichi chisels.

Hand made in Miki, Hyogo prefecture.

While not an especially well known name outside of Japan, they are a regular feature in professional tool sets and stores, especially in the Western half of Japan.

A reputation for no nonsense quality, performance and acute attention to detail makes these chisels an excellent choice for those woodworkers looking to upgrade from their existing tools or for the professional requiring a dependable tool with which to ply their trade. Koyamaichi Blade Works' willingness to adapt to the changing needs of craftspersons has allowed them to continue manufacturing professional quality edged tools, in the same location, for over 100 years where many others have closed their doors and fallen by the wayside.

One of the most significant advantages we present with Koyamaichi is choice. We offer the ability to change handle material, a choice of Yasuki white steel (standard) or Yasuki blue steel (optional extra) for the blade's edge and various options mean that however you want your chisel, you can have it.

As these tools are hand made to order, please allow up to 6 weeks for order processing. Most of the more common options are available at all times, but please allow for any additional time required to produce your tools to your liking.
