The Japanese Oire Nomi Maru chisel is a high-end professional tool traditionally used by woodworkers in Japan for precise roughing, shaping and finishing operations.
Made entirely by hand by the workshop of master blacksmith Ioroy, this chisel is distinguished by the high quality of its forged steel, which ensures a very durable edge retention and excellent cutting capacity.

The handle, made of Japanese red oak, a wood renowned for its strength and durability, is reinforced by a forged steel ring, increasing the tool's lifespan and allowing for moderate strikes without risk of the handle splitting.

Available in various widths (3 mm, 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm, 18 mm, 21 mm, 24 mm, 30 mm, 36 mm, 42 mm), it is suitable for a wide range of work — from fine notches to wider sections — in the fields of joinery, traditional joinery, cabinetmaking or wood carving.
