About this supply
The great legacy of blade technology in Japan and the requirement for precision carving in the production of Ukyo-e prints gave rise to the development of carving tools such as these. Crafted from a high quality two-part steel: high-carbon steel which holds the cutting edge, laminated to a softer steel which provides strength with a little flexibility to help prevent breakage. This Michihamono very fine V shape tool has a width of 0.5mm for cutting highly detailed work in wood and lino. The handle is made from smoked oak and is 110mm in length.
The tools leave the factory very sharp so please take care when handling. This 0.5mm V gouge is very fine and delicate so use with care to avoid breaking the blade.
