Genno - Japanese Bronze Square Hammer 225g (Tonkachi)

Genno - Japanese Bronze Square Hammer 225g (Tonkachi)

Brand: Tonkachi (Japan)

There are several essential differences between a Japanese (Genno) and a Western hammer. The Japanese hammer is very much a do-it-all tool, from driving nails to striking chisels (hence the iron hoop on the top of Japanese chisels). One face is flat, this is for driving nails and striking chisels.

Description

There are several essential differences between a Japanese (Genno) and a Western hammer. The Japanese hammer is very much a do-it-all tool, from driving nails to striking chisels (hence the iron hoop on the top of Japanese chisels). One face is flat, this is for driving nails and striking chisels, the other face is slightly crowned, used mainly for the final blow to the nail head thus driving it flush without damaging the surrounding surface. This hammer is ideal for delicate work to avoid damaging the work surface or the object you want to strike. 

  • One flat face, one slightly crowned
  • Long slim white oak handle
  • 225 grams

Made in Japan
