Kakuri Bronze & Brass Genno Hammer

Hammers Made of Metal Softer than Iron

The hammers are made of a material softer than iron. While they are not suitable for driving iron nails due to the risk of the head becoming dented, they are useful in situations where you need to strike metal surfaces while ensuring minimal damage to the components.

Suitable for Adjusting Planes

Given these characteristics,
these hammers are highly recommended for adjusting the blades and chip breakers of planes, as they cause minimal damage. If you find it difficult to make adjustments with a wooden mallet because you feel it’s too light, these hammers are an excellent alternative!
