Description What makes this Japanese Genno Hammer special? The flat face has various woodworking applications while the curved face is meant for flush nail finish without leaving indentations or other hammering marks on the surface The curved face can also be used in a Japanese joinery technique where a tenon is hammered slightly (without damaging the fibers with hard edges) to fit snugly within a mortice, later expanding and locking the joint tight Due to its octagonal shape it’s very handy to use on its side for reaching inner corners and other hard-to-access areas Tempered faces and softer steel body prevents the head from bouncing off the surface and puts less force on the wrist Specifications: Handle: White oak Length: 330 mm Head profile: 23 x 27 mm Head length: 90 mm Weight: 375 g Made in Japan – Susa Seisakusho Co., Ltd.
