This comprehensive 14-piece set can be used for every stage of the sculptural carving process, from roughing out to final finishing.

Michihamono has designed these tools' handles to be substantial in the hand while still encouraging fine control. This is so that they feel good whether housing large or small cutting edges. As such, switching between tools doesn't require a recalibration of grip or technique.

 

All flat- and u- shaped chisels use these 18mm-diameter cherry handles. They also all feature excellent white paper (Shirogami #2) cutting edges. 

 

The pair of skew chisels use hinoki (cypress) handles, and use HSS edges as found on a wide variety of Michihamono's excellent tools. They allow the carver to work ambidextrously. 

 

This set ships in a simple vinyl case.
