Dozuki Saws

Dozuki saws are indispensable for cutting wood joints and making precise crosscuts and shoulder cuts. the
ultra-thin and fine-toothed saw blade allows precise, tear-free cuts and the finest kerfs. the reinforced back
stabilises the blade and makes it less susceptible to breakage, but also limits the possible cutting depth.
Dozuki saws with universal tooth pattern are especially suited for making dovetails and other wood joints.

White Silver Steel


this steel has a significantly lower alloy content than the steels commonly
used for saws and is thus purer. We
use it for saws. the resulting finer
structure of the steel makes it easier
to sharpen and harden, which gives
it a much longer edge life. tests have
shown a 30-40 % increase in edge
life under identical conditions.

Content: In this
course, you will
make different
types of dovetails on
sample pieces using
hand tools. You will
learn the different
methods of marking
as well as how to
cut the dovetails by

half-blind and mitred
dovetails, you will
learn how to make
angled dovetails,
corner dovetails at different angles, and
special tail shapes like devil dovetails.

My reason for getting the Dozuki


Universal Extra-Fine X 240 is that it
does a splendid job for dovetail cuts
in about 8 mm thick hardwood. The
ripping is excellent and the crosscut is not too bad either, though the
Dozuki Tenon X 240 Crosscut is a
little faster.

Ryoba Saws

With its two different tooth patterns, the Ryoba saw ensures optimum
cutting performance not only across but also in the direction of the grain,
making it the most versatile saw for carpentry and joinery. the thicker
saw blade allows backless control and thus cuts of any depth flush to
the surface. Because the teeth become successively finer from the tip to
the tang, it is easy to start a cut and less force is required as the stroke
progresses.

Sharpened by hand:
Western saws of exceptional quality, optimised for specific uses. the blade teeth
of Swedish spring steel are first milled and set on the machine and then fine-tuned
by hand. each saw undergoes an intensive cutting test before it leaves the factory.
Handles of curly maple, secured with traditional split-nut screws, and a solid brass back complete these
premium saws.
Advantages of tapered saw blades
Less weight on the saw blade
Centre of mass is closer to the
handle for a more balanced saw
Faster and more aggressive
cutting; if the back of the saw is
held horizontally during cutting,
each tooth is lower than the one
before, resulting in faster stock
removal

PARING CHISEL WITH
BIRCH BARK HANDLE, 6-PIECE SET
What makes this paring chisel stand out is the new material bm1 made from birch
bark. the robust handle is manufactured in an elaborate, patented process
involving bonding together individual slices of birch bark, which produce
a unique natural texture, and applying them to a solid, impactresistant hornbeam handle core. bm1 birch bark not only has
a pleasantly smooth, warm feel but also boasts unique
technical qualities. an ultra-durable natural material
that keeps its shape extremely well, it is sustainable and ecologically produced, easy-care,
water-repellent, and slip-proof even in
perspiring hands.

only bark from Siberian birches is used for


the handles. Central european bark is too
thin for use in handicrafts. the material has
an antiseptic effect, as it is antibacterial,
antiviral and inhibits fungal growth. the soft
and flexible bark has traditionally been shaped
to form vessels, shoes, backpacks, knife
sheaths, mats and baskets using weaving,
sewing and tucking techniques - a material
with virtually unlimited possibilities.

Hand-worked blades for
connoisseurs:
these premium-quality chisels are extremely durable. the blade is laminated
with White Paper Steel, and finished by
means of hand-forging with low deformation. Like sword steel, this material is
melted from purest ironsand. the back
of the blade has multiple grooves for improved support when working near edges.

Blade length 60 mm

Tapered blades
the blade is set at a slight angle to the tang to increase the
working depth to nearly double the blade length.
Integral design
the neck is seamlessly integrated in the handle and therefore lies comfortably in the hand. the conical steel ferrule
protects the handle against fracture when struck with the
hammer.
Hollow-ground back
the hollow relief (ura) on the back of the blade reduces
the contact surface and therefore also the friction and the
required cutting force. It also simplifies sharpening, as only
the edges of the hard carbon steel of the blade need to be
lapped. Due to the abrasion during sharpening, the straight
cutting edge remains intact, even though the blade becomes
shorter through sharpening over time.

european-style handle and oiled surface:
these chisels are hand-made in a
japanese master forge and have a cutting
edge of specially developed YC3 steel.
YC3 steel is in its characteristics and
composition similar to White Paper Steel
and therefore takes a very fine edge. It is
however considerably tougher which reduces the risk of chipping when working
in knotty wood. the extra-long handle
of japanese white oak optimally absorbs
impact and its oiled surface provides a
very comfortable grip.

What is the difference between the steel


ferrule on Japanese chisels and the ferrule
on Western-style ones?
on japanese chisels, the impact
is transferred to the blade via the
handle and the steel ferrule that is
held in place by the conical shape.
unlike the ferrules on Westernstyle chisels, japanese steel ferrules are solid and turned.
on Western-style chisels, the impact is transferred via a tang
and the shoulder of the blade. japanese blades are therefore
connected to the handle in two ways, while Western ones are
only fixed by the tang.

Tang:
there is no difference between
the tang in a japanese or Western
chisel. the steel ferrule in japanese chisels and the ferrule in
Western chisels prevent the handle
from being split by the impact of
the hammer.

japanese

Western

Conical section:
the forged-on shoulder touches the ferrule in the Western version, but it only fixes it additionally and does not transfer the
impact to the blade. In the japanese version, the forged-on
shoulder of the blade also touches the steel ferrule, but the
ferrule itself sits on a turned conical section on the handle.
thus the impact is also transferred through the steel ferrule.

How does the steel ferrule have to fit?

Set up tips:
nomi do not come ready to use
(except the HSS and tataki models).
they must first be sharpened and
finished. We recommend using japanese waterstones. For high-precision
applications, the back of the blade
should also be flattened prior
to use. this can be done
using a steel plate and silicon
carbide powder or a diamond
stone. the ferrule on the butt
end of the handle should
also be driven down prior
to use so that the hammer
only makes contact with
the wood when striking the
chisel. Detailed instructions
are included with every
chisel.

Inclusive free sharpening pass. For more information see page 4.

the steel ferrule transfers the impact via the conical


section. therefore, if the ferrule touches the wood at
the upper end of the turned conical section, you should
remove some of the wood there. otherwise the impact is
not transferred via the conical section but via the area of contact.

Tonoko Nuri technique

During this chisel manufacturing step, the


ground iron is covered with a liquid mixture of
aluminium oxide and carbon powder. this coat
allows a constant temperature of all parts of the
blade when tempering and causes an all-over
black oxide layer which prevents rust.

If the steel ferrule becomes slightly


loose on the first variant, it looks as if
the chisel is cracked. But what looks
like a crack is actually created when
the steel ferrule is joined with the
blade, where the steel ferrule buckles
slightly. Because the edge of the steel
ferrule deforms unevenly, the ferrule only fits in one position,
and if the fit opens slightly, it appears as if a crack had formed.

the answer to this question lies in the manufacture.


there are two ways of making the steel ferrule in japan.
In the first and most common variant, the area where the
steel ferrule joins the forged-on shoulder is ground. At first
sight, the two parts seem to be made of one piece. In the
second variant, the steel ferrule is accentuated by either a
hammer finish (hand-forged) or blueing.

under a spring

the blade is
forged evenly to its final thickness. A traditional technique allows the tool to be forged as
thin as possible while ensuring high stability.
Before hardening, the blade is pre-ground
to remove the decarbonised surface layers

produced in the forging process. this ensures


a consistent hardness at all points throughout
the blade.

Gouges are used for anything from rough work to shaping and finishing, and are therefore
the most versatile sculptors tools. If necessary, each of these gouges can also be used the
other way round to work on convex surfaces. the 11-sweep tools, which take you from gouge
to v-parting tool, are often used to create shape transitions.

Inside bevels on carving gouges - sharpening techniques by DICTUM


in cooperation with Chris Pye
An inside bevel adds a very special configuration to carving gouges, altering the
whole feel and performance of these tools to great advantage. Its true: some carvers produce excellent carvings without this inside bevel; so make your own mind
up by carving with two similar gouges, one with and one without the inner bevel,
experiment and compare how they feel.

This in turn allows a lower cutting angle


since the outer bevel can be longer
An inner bevel eases the shaving up
and out of the channel in deep and
u-shaped gouges

Guidelines
Make the angle for the inner bevel
quite low, 5-10
Add the inner bevel early when
you commission your carving tool
(before dealing with the outer bevel)
The flatter the gouge (i.e. the lower the
number) and the more it will be used
upside down, the longer the inner
bevel; the deeper the gouge, the shorter
and sharper; v tools and bent gouges
need very little, if any inner bevel

inside
bevel
outside bevel

the edge starts to


catch in the wood

In effect the flat face is an


infinite bevel with no heel
the edge pivots on the
heel and cuts through

For a detailed version of this sharpening


technique and more techniques
see www.dictum.com

Reasons for an inside bevel


You can cut more easily with the gouge upside down; without the inside bevel,
the cutting edge tends to jig on the flat inner face and bury itself into the wood,
rather than rising out by pivoting on the inner heel (see picture A)
The inside bevel throws the cutting edge to the middle of the metal, thus buttressing and strengthening the edge by increasing the combined, overall bevel angle

Gouges are used for anything from rough work to shaping and finishing, and are therefore the most
versatile sculptors tools. If necessary, each of these gouges can also be used the other way round
to work on convex surfaces. the 11-sweep tools, which take you from gouge to v-parting tool,
are often used to create shape transitions.

these carving sets, with handles made of


oiled plane tree heartwood made exclusively
for DICtuM are not just aesthetic but also hardwearing. the decorative plane tree wood with its
slightly red colour is due to its small annual rings
and scattered pores very hard and tough and
therefore takes more blows than ash wood. this
beautiful wood is also characterized by its striped
pattern that is a result of the cutting face of the
medullary rays. Delivered in a practical roll-up

Content: In this course, you will learn the
basics of designing an expressive head and
sketch your own design. In the second stage,
you carve your design out of linden wood
using a template, band saw and carving
tools. as no experience of carving tools is
necessary for the course, students can carve out the puppet head each
according to their own skill and effort and can also finish it at home.
the focus is on getting to know what it is all about. Depending on your
progress, you may also be shown the basics of carving hands. the course
also covers subjects such as materials, cutting techniques and sharpening
sculpting tools.

What are sweeps?


Sweeps depict the shape of a tool as viewed from the front. to make tool selection
easier, these shapes are numbered. the gouge sweeps go back to a standard
that was set by the so-called Sheffield Illustrated List, where the number has no
particular meaning. People often think
that the number relates to the diameter
of a circle on which a specific sweep is
based, but this is wrong. It may well be
possible that the shapes of the sweeps
were based on archimedean spirals
rather than on circles. In general, the
sweeps of the different manufacturers
follow the basic system of the Sheffield
Illustrated List, but some may also
differ. to allow you to compare the
sweeps, we print a 1:1 sketch of the
individual sweeps in our catalogue
wherever possible.

Japanese Carving Tools

as with many other handcraft traditions, the japanese woodcarving craft


has its origins in the ecclesiastical sphere. even today, lavishly carved
temples and precious family altars as well as the Buddha carving craft
bear witness to the centuries of refinement of the sculpting art and of
sculpting tools. japanese sculpting and carving tools are characterised
by double-layered blades with excellent sharpness. their integral design
and sturdy ferrules allow them to be struck with a mallet or hammer.

Sculpting tools

Traditional Chinese Carving Tools

these exceptional carving tools emanate from two forges on the southern
Chinese city of Dongyang, a centre of the sculpting craft. With the small
chisels, the durable blades are sharply tapered into a pointed tang. the
larger tools have a socket-shaped throat which holds the handle and
prevents splitting. the small carving blades are made of carbon steel
(C 60, approx. 58 HRC). the socket tools are of forged double-layered
steel (above 60 HRC). In line with Chinese tradition, the chisels are only
roughly ground by the blacksmith. It is the user who makes the chisels
ready-for-use by fine grinding to the required sharpness and mounting
the handles. note: Due to the entirely manual production, the stated
dimensions are subject to relatively wide fluctuations.
note how close to the blade the chisel is held.

Shape of
the mallet

White Beech Mallet

Designed together with our master sculptor, these


mallets are perfectly balanced in their proportions and weight.
the head is made from a single piece of fine-grained white beech.
the mortised, varnished handle of smoked robinia wood will resist
even the hardest impacts.

the round
shape of
the mallet
is essential
for its use
in sculpting
because it
allows you
to control
the impact
in different
directions.
the head widens towards the top,
which allows an ergonomic grip and
precise blows. Since the wrist cannot
be angled by 90 in the direction of
the blow, the tapering of the mallet
head makes up for the extra 10-15.
this allows an ergonomic grip with
maximum striking precision.

Swedish Type
Frost Knives

Cutting tools have been forged in the Swedish town of Mora for over 400
years. the Mora Knife, developed by erich Frost over 100 years ago is
synonymous with functionality and reliability. the majority of the blades
presented here are forged from rolled 2.5 mm thick traditional triplelayered carbon steel. the knives are distinguished by their excellent
sharpening properties and long edge life (the hardness of the core layer is
approx. 61 HRC). to preserve the steels fine grain structure, alloys have
not been added, meaning that the blades are not rustproof. the birch
handles are firmly attached to the full-length tang.

Svante Djrv

Svante Djrvs carving tools,


hand-forged from uddeholm steel,

Swedish knife making. the textured,
nordic-ash handles fit comfortably
in the hand.

Content: In this course, you will


focus on carving miniature human
and animal figures and faces as
well as crib figurines. Besides making miniatures, the methods are perfectly suited for developing three-dimensional projects, because it does not
take long to carve various design ideas into wood. We will hold the objects
in our hands while carving, so that the participants can continue practicing
on new objects at home, without fully equipped workshops or workbenches.

Tips on the use of drawknives


Pull the drawknife with the bevel
to the bottom at a slant to the work
piece. this makes for better control
and reduces the cutting force. For fine
material removal you can achieve better control by placing both thumbs on
the blade. For work after scribing and
heavy material removal, it is advisable
to first make several cuts close up to
the scribe line and then to cut to size
with continuous strokes.

adzes
the adze has always been an important and highly versatile tool for carpenters, cabinet makers, boat builders
and sculptors alike, and different versions have therefore evolved for different purposes. they are used for
hollowing-out large objects such as troughs, smoothing, and other large-scale carving projects. the most
important detail of a good adze is the right combination of form and length of the handle, which must suit
the shape of the head. But also the bevel must be customised for the individual application.
Outside bevel:
this type of bevel changes
the geometry of the adze.
Similar to a bent back, the
outside bevel also changes
the angle of the support
surface. Material can only
be removed with additional
hoeing movements. an
advantage of this version
is that the blade cannot
penetrate the workpiece
too easily because the back
quickly drives it back out. this bevel type is particularly
suitable for rough removal of material. It is also easy to
sharpen, similar to an axe.

Inside bevel:
the more elaborate inside bevel allows precise
application of the adze
and, if the back is swung
correctly, ergonomic use
from the wrist. an inside
bevel is a must whenever
you require highly precise
strokes, e.g. in sculpting.

Flat Adzes

Flat adzes are used to flatten and


smooth planes. these planes may
be finished later or keep their characteristic hewn surface. therefore
these adzes usually have an inside
bevel.

Combined inside
and outside bevel:
If the outside bevel is
slightly changed by using
a very flat bevel, this
allows a combination that
offers all the advantages
of both bevel types:
inside bevel for precise
application, outside bevel
to prevent the adze from
catching in the workpiece.

Sharpening Axes
as axes are mostly used outside the workshop,
a mobile sharpening device such as the
DMt folding diamond sharpener
no. 705391 is recommended.
See page 118.
It has two different grits and is extremely
wear-resistant. You lay the blade of the axe
on a solid support, such as a tree trunk, and
guide the sharpener with uniform strokes
transversely to the cutting edge, while
maintaining the bevel angle.

Grnsfors Splitting Axes

Hatchets and axes


with splitting
function

the thick heads of these axes have wide flaring cheeks and progressively
increasing wedge angles to ensure maximum splitting power. the shaft
has an iron sheath to protect it from wear and is textured at the end to
provide a more secure grip.

Obtuse wedge angle


for maximum splitting
action
Straight handles for
more accurate strokes

Wood-chopping tips:
It is usually easier to split a piece of
wood from its narrower end. to split
knotty or irregularly grown wood, the
axe's edge must be extremely sharp.
always try to strike the centre (the
mark) of a piece of wood to facilitate
splitting, especially when splitting a
knot. If the piece is not split on the
first strike
and the axe
gets jammed
in the piece,
turn it over
and strike the
back of the
head on the
chopping block.

to split particularly large or irregularly

two wedges. Start by driving one into
the edge of the round to make a gap.
Insert the second wedge into this gap
and work alternatively towards the
centre of the round, increasing the gap
until the wood is split into two pieces.

Wood-chopping tips:
Keep a safe distance to others. use
a wide, heavy chopping block that is
stable and approximately knee high.
any type of wood will do, but oak will
last the longest. Place the piece to be
split towards the back of the chopping
block so that, should you miss it, the
axe will hit the block and not the ground.
A

Hold the axe by the end of the shaft


to make best use of your strength. at
the moment it strikes the wood, the
axe shaft should be horizontal and
your arms should be almost
fully extended.

A
DouBLeBItteD MoRtISe axe
Hand-forged:
the double-bitted mortise axe, the
symbol of carpentry, is a combination
of mortise axe and mortise chisel and
is used for cutting mortises. at one end
there is a double-bevel axe blade, at the
other end a chisel blade that is offset by
90 with a bevel at the top. Both cutting
edges are conical to allow mortises to be
cut to their full depth.
the two ends that are precisely offset by
90 and the unusual length make this
type of axe extremely complex to manufacture. to ensure precise orientation and
optimum balance while making the axe
as robust as possible, our model has a
diamond-shaped eye forged from a single
solid piece. the axe's centre of gravity is
thus shifted towards the eye, providing
optimum balance and striking control.

E BunDGeSCHIRR
the Bundgeschirr (German for
t
carpenter's gear) comprises the most
important tools used by carpenters.
then and now, journeymen in Germany
t
carry it with them when they take to the
road in time-honoured tradition. With
time, however, the tools included in the
Bundgeschirr have changed because of
the increased use of machines. With our

Secure the log approx. at knee height
and fasten it using log dogs. Make
notches in the log down to the desired
depth every 30 cm (for green wood)
or 50 cm (dry wood). always work
with the grain.
use uniform strokes and shearingtype cutting action. the upper body
should move in rhythm with the
stroke. use very little effort, allowing
the weight of the axe to do the work
for you.
the thickness of the shavings removed
should not be more than 0.5 - 1 cm.

CaRPenteR'S HatCHet
Hand-forged:
unusual, versatile carpenter's hatchet,
design based on a baroque model from
the 17th century. Besides its main use
as a hewing axe for small to medium
beams and for trimming boards, the
forge-welded poll means the axe is also
suitable for striking. thus it is used not
only for driving in log dogs, wood nails
and wedges, but also for releasing and
driving together joints as well as driving
heavy mortise chisels. the hand-made
handle is curved on one side and allows
you to swing the hatchet freely when
hewing. the well-balanced shape provides
an excellent grip.

BeaRDeD HanD HatCHet
this hand-forged bearded hand hatchet is
based on an original archaeological find
from the administrative district Lneburg
(Dumstorfer hatchet) in Germany dating
back to the turn of the 18th and 19th
century.

the hallmark of the bearded hand hatchet


is the strong ridge that extends from the
head over the middle of the blade for
reinforcement.

the wedge shape of the ridge, which also


has a splitting effect, and the slightly
curved eye make the hatchet ideal for
trimming all kinds of workpieces. then
and now an excellent tool for splitting
out bars, rails and fillets when making
furniture from green wood.

Splitting Wedges
D SaFetY SPLIttInG WeDGe, MaDe out oF aLuMInIuM
In former times axes were used to cut down trees, but nowadays these have been replaced by chain saws. this rapid development
also affected splitting wedges. the oldest models, usually made of wood, have been replaced by low-wear splitting wedges made
of steel. now engineering has taken another step: Safety splitting wedges are made from extremely impact-resistant, forged aluminium. they do not splinter and are no risk for chain saws. at the same time they are very light and protected against corrosion.

D

1 Twisted Splitting Wedge with Tip
Because of its twisted shape, the wedge
angle enlarges while the wedge is being
knocked in. this results in higher splitting
forces. the tip is easily applied to the wood
and forces itself in. Grooves on the side of
the wedge bite into the wood and therefore prevent the wedge from recoiling.

Planes
Based in the uS, Lie-nielsen specialises in re-introducing and improving
traditional plane types. Lie-nielsen makes its tools from only the finest
materials, many of which had previously been too expensive, not yet fully
developed or unavailable in suitable tool-making quality. today, Lie-nielsen
plane blades are made of a2 steel, which prolongs the edge life and
prevents rust. In all models, a blade thickness of 3.2 to 4.8 mm reduces
vibrations when the tool is in use. During production, blades are hardened to approx. 62 HRC and subjected
to low-temperature treatment (cryogenic hardening) for an even finer grain and enhanced durability. Plane
bodies are made of stress-relieved, wear-resistant spheroidal cast iron, which is highly resistant to cracking
and absorbs vibrations.

2 Low-Angle Jack Rabbet Plane No. 610


a perfect combination:
a cross between the low-angle jack
plane no. 62 and the bench rabbet
plane no. 10 , resulting in one of
the most versatile planes. With its low
angle and its function as a rabbet plane
with nickers, this tool will expertly handle
any tasks. trueing and smoothing end
grain, long grain and difficult grains both
across and in the direction of the grain,
and even working into corners, can now

be mastered with just the one plane.


You can even finish large shoulders and
rails with this model. the blade sits
bevel-up in the milled bed at a 12
angle. Bevel angle 25. Results in a
cutting angle of 37.

Based on an early Stanley version, this
router plane is very useful for planing
precise mortises, grooves and other
recessed areas. the improved depth-stop
and fine blade adjustment allow for precise adjustments of the square-shaped
and therefore directionally stable guided
iron. the blade can be fixed centrally
(normal position) or close to the edge for
working corners. an included fence is
fixed through elongated holes to the cast
iron body and can be turned around for
guiding along curved edges. the open
throat design offers more visibility in front
of the tool. the closed throat design is
ideal for working on the edges of boards
or cleaning out the end of a stopped
groove in a rail or stile.

with precisely ground soles aligned
at right angles to the sides, together
with the 3 mm thick blades made
from SK4 steel (61 HRC) signify
top quality. the blade adjuster

Cast steel vs. grey cast iron


For financial reasons, manufacturers
of planes in the lower and middle price
segment use plane bodies made of
grey cast iron. this material is easy to
cast but prone to breaking. a breaking
test regarding the sides of the plane
body shows, that the cast steel used
for DICK planes does not break but
only deforms under high pressure. the
sides of a grey cast iron plane body,
however, tend to break even under
small pressure, e.g. when falling off a
table-edge.

Planes
the corporate philosophy of
Canadian tool manufacturer veritas
aims to develop new adjustment
mechanisms and enhance historic
plane design. With bodies made of
stress-relieved spheroidal cast iron,
these tools are highly resistant to
cracking and distortion.
their soles are perfectly plane and
trued at right angles to the sides.
their thick blades of high-strength
a2 steel are hardened to 60-62 HRC
and additionally subjected to a
special low-temperature process to
achieve a finer grain. two setscrews
on the sides constrain the blade
laterally, keeping it in place regardless of the type of stress applied.
unless otherwise specified, the blade
is angled at 45. With their material combination of finely-ground
or black-coated cast iron bodies,
polished brass setscrews and beautiful bubinga handles, these planes
are also pleasing to the eye.

japanese Planes (Kanna)


japanese planes bring the woods true inherent beauty to the fore.
Kanna have been reduced to their most essential plane functions. the
double-layered, tapered blade is much thicker than standard european
blades, allowing chatter-free planing. the cap serves as a chipbreaker.
the numerous adjustment mechanisms found on european planes are
completely absent. Before using a Kanna for the first time, the blades
back must be flattened and the blade properly seated in the tapered
grooves of the body. to minimise friction, the sole can be given a slightly
concave profile using a scraping plane. anyone willing to make the initial
effort of setting up and learning how to use these fascinating tools will
be rewarded with exceptional results. unless otherwise noted, the blade
angle is 40. Instructions included.

Ready-to-use Japanese Planes with


Replaceable HSS Blades
the Kannas remarkable smoothness is primarily attributable to its
particularly thick plane blade, which
generally must be sharpened by
hand and set into the body before
use. the Kanetomo planes allow
you to forego these time-consuming
steps by using replaceable HSS
cutters. the cutters fit flush into
a recess in the back of the heavy,
vibration-absorbing blade.

the razor-sharp cutters will produce


first-class surface finishes even
when working difficult materials.
they are hardened to 68 HRC to
guarantee superb edge life.

Tips on how to use Japanese planes


In japan, the workpiece is not fixed
between bench dogs, but is simply laid
on a planing board or a planing beam
with a stopper.

the right hand is used to hold the front


of the plane, push it down and pull. the
left hand remains behind the blade and
guides it. Softwoods are easier to plane
if they are moistened slightly. a dustfree workshop is recommended for high
surface quality when planing. Grinding
dust in particular blunts plane blades.
Clean the wood surface thoroughly
before planing.
after working, push the Kanna blade
back somewhat to reduce the tension
on the block.

traditional Chinese Planes


the basic design of the Chinese plane (Mu Bao) is similar to the japanese
Kanna. the major difference is that the Chinese plane can be used on
either the pull or the push stroke, whereas the japanese Kanna can only be
used on the pull stroke. the larger Chinese planes have a cross-handle
to facilitate push stroke use (which can be removed for use on the pull
stroke). the blades are held in place using a wedge or cap. the slightly
wave-shaped plane bodies are made of either Hei tan (a fine-grained

type of ebony from Indonesia) or Shun-Gee (a type of rosewood). the


uncoated surfaces are worked using scrapers and are polished. the plane
blades are made of wear-resistant HSS steel (approx. 64 HRC), or forged
carbon steel (approx. 58 HRC) for special-purpose planes, which make
Chinese planes visually appealing and solid all-round tools. unless otherwise specified, the blade angle is 40.

F uLMIa DovetaIL PLane


this Western-style model has a solid plane
body made of red beech with a white
beech sole, which is hard and wear-resistant. the sole is inclined at an angle
of 73 to the right-hand surface. the
metal fence allows for adjusting the
required depth. the inclination and the
pitch of the iron allow a skewed cut and
also easier sharpening because the iron
is formed like a normal plane iron. the
blade also guides the cutting forces towards the inside to prevent surface tearing
along the dovetail tip. this technical solution is not considered by many other suppliers and therefore fairly rare. a scoring
spur which can be fitted as required
minimises the risk of surface tearing.

G FISCH DovetaIL CutteR


With this dovetail cutter for use with a
router, you can not only make joints more
quickly and precisely, but also a lot more
easily. the router cuts the grout into the
wood and the matching sliding dovetail
is added to the counterpart using our
ulmia Dovetail Plane no. 703800. Cutter
17 and plane 73 match perfectly. the
cutter is made of carbide metal and thus
provides a long service life even when
used for hardwood. Shaft diameter 8 mm,
overall length 60 mm, diameter 20 mm,
tilt angle 17, max. depth of cut 16 mm.

Scraper Blades and Scrapers


Scraper blades are indispensable for
smoothing wooden surfaces, removing
marks left by planing and routing,
cleaning glued joints and levelling
uneven varnish coats. Sharpened properly
and burnished with a fine hook, they are
capable of removing the finest shavings
and leaving a smoother and more precise
surface finish than can be attained by
grinding. By varying the pressure, angle
and curvature of the scraper, you can
achieve superb results even against
the grain (knotty wood, inlays, parquet
etc.). We recommend using a fine-grain
waterstone for finishing the cutting edge
and a diamond stone or fine flat file for
levelling and squaring the edge when
necessary.

Sharpening of scraper blades


tRueInG tHe BLaDe
Scrapers are usually punched, which means the edges must be worked with a file
to obtain an evenly square edge, using one of the following methods:
There are file holders with a 90 fence which allow even less-experienced users
to control the file securely. You can make similar holders of wood yourself.
But the simplest and cheapest method is clamping the scraper between
two pieces of wood.
Find two pieces of wood (90 edge at the top) or bits of sheet material with
which you can fix the scraper in a vice (alternatively, you can clamp the scraper
between these two supports on a large beam with a clamp
Let the scraper project by about 1 mm
Work on the projecting scraper with the file until it is almost flush with
the supports
Make longitudinal or slightly diagonal strokes until the file almost touches
the supports
the wooden supports now provide a large support area that makes it easy
to guide the file or stone at a 90 angle

FInISHInG tHe BLaDe


Hold the combination stone in your
hand and guide it along the support
area you have just created (scrapersupport combination in the vice)
a few strokes with the 1000 grit
side and then with the 6000 grit
side should be enough
RaISInG tHe BuRR
Slide the scraper further up between the supports
How far the scraper should project depends on the required angle (normally 10-15)

108

to estimate the angle, place the burnisher not only onto the scraper edge but
also onto the edge of the support. Viewed in profile, you can estimate the angle
Drawing the burnisher along the edge of the support creates a consistent angle
Pull the burnisher over the entire edge in a single stroke, applying sufficient
pressure (a slightly diagonal stroke enables accurate application, even at the
end of the scraper)

CHeCKInG tHe BuRR


You can now feel the raised burr with
your fingertips. Depending on how hard
the scraper and the pressure applied,
you may need to burnish the edge again.
However, you should not burnish more
than three times, as each process may
ruin the even burr. the deeper the angle
used in burnishing, the larger and more
aggressive the burr. How large a burr is required
depends on the intended use: Removing varnishes
and coats requires a large burr. Surface finishing
requires a small burr.
ReConDItIonInG tHe BuRR
You can also right the burr with the burnisher and
raise it anew, but this process does not usually
produce consistent results. We therefore recommend
completely removing the burr on worn scrapers with a
file before raising a new one.

Bench Stones
King / Sun Tiger

Matsunaga is one of the largest manufacturers of sharpening stones in japan. In the West, these stones are
usually known as King stones or Sun tiger stones. the stones of the King or Sun tiger series have a relatively
soft bond, which allows the abrasives to be continually exposed during use, making the stone highly effective.
these stones are particularly suitable for extremely hard, low-alloy carbon steels (White and Blue Paper Steel).
Before use, soak the stones in water for at least 15 minutes. they can also be stored in water permanently.

Suehiro

WORKSHOP

Suehiro is a smaller japanese company which has been producing sharpening stones for three generations.
Kenkichi okumura, who founded the company, began with selling stones from his own natural stone deposit,
which gained high recognition in the whole of japan. these many years of experience in the field of natural
stones enable Suehiro to successfully produce synthetic sharpening stones.

Suehiro Standard Series

the stones from the original Suehiro series have a relatively soft bond
and are thus designed for extremely
hard, low-alloy carbon steels (Blue
and White Paper Steel). Before
use, soak the stones in water for
at least 10 minutes. It is not recommended to keep them in water
permanently.

Cerax is the best-known brand of the Suehiro company. the stones sold under this name have a mediumhard bond and are particularly suitable for high-alloy tool steels but also for low-alloy carbon steels. the coarsegrained alloy constituents (e.g. chromium and vanadium) in tool steels require a stone that wears slowly.
the stone with the base has extra stability and is easy to store. a nagura stone is used for cleaning and
unclogging the surface of the stone and for creating a fine polishing paste. Before use, soak the stones in
water for at least 10 minutes, but do not store them in water permanently. White aluminium oxide abrasive.

Glass Stones by Shapton

the premium range from japanese company Shapton is the


glass-stone series. the sharpening
particles are highly pure and homogeneous. this is noticeable when
changing to finer grits: the traces
from the previous grit are quickly
ground out. a special bond allows
quick sharpening on a flat surface.
the sharpening stone has a base of
tempered glass
and is thus
100 % warpfree. Conventional sharpening stones
may warp
microscopically
by absorbing
water, but
Shapton stones
solve this
problem with their extremely flat
base of tempered glass. another
advantage of the glass base is that
the grit rating on the underside is
always visible even after much use.
Before use, spray the stones with
water. It is not recommended to
keep them in water permanently.

DMT Diamond Stones

the uS-based company Diamond Machining technology, (DMt) is the


leading manufacturer of quality diamond sharpening stones. DMt tools
are precision manufactured, highly wear resistant and extremely effective.
the monocrystalline diamonds*, permanently embedded in a nickel matrix,
guarantee remarkable sharpening speed even when working the hardest
tool steels. the diamond-coated blocks remain permanently plane, and
are especially suitable for tools with straight blades as well as for producing plane surfaces (e.g. backs of plane and chisel blades, plane soles,
scrapers). also suitable for carbide coated cutters, HSS, as well as nonmetal materials (glass, ceramic etc.). We recommend moistening the
DMt stones with water and grinding with little pressure.

In the photograph from a scanning electron microscope, you


can clearly see the difference
between varying and uniformly-sized grains.
DMt (left) uses diamonds with
even grain sizes, while the
photo on the right shows a cutprice abrasive with different
grain sizes. In addition to the
grain size, the density of the
diamond coating is crucial to
the durability and effectiveness of the abrasive.

In its March issue 2012, Wood Magazine (uSa) tested how quickly the different
abrasives (diamond, water and ceramic stones as well as sandpaper) remove stock.
according to the test, involving rough pre-sharpening (25 bevel) of plane blades,
DMt was clearly the best of the quick sharpeners, with results ranging from
1.20 minutes to 4.19 minutes.

Sharpening Devices

Sheet - Explanation:

a) Grain purity

(1) Coarse Shaping Stones

the more even (pure) the grain, the better the sharpening result. a mixed or impure grain will always result
in less effective abrasion.

Coarse-grained stones for abrading large


amounts of material. For repairing nicks
and chips, altering the bevel geometry,
removing corrosion etc.

(2) Sharpening Stones

Medium-grit stones for sharpening


blunt edges.

(3) Honing Stones

Fine-grit waterstones for removing


burr, polishing and honing.

b) Recommendation steels

to get started,
we recommend one
stone each of
the two types
of stone.

c) Abrasive surface

(4) Polishing stones

ultra-fine grained stones for honing and polishing.

Norton

uS-based company norton has


been developing industrial abrasives since 1885. With separate
production facilities for individual
divisions in 28 countries, including
Germany, France and japan, the
company has become the world
leader in abrasives of all kinds.

Low-alloy carbon steels


Japanese chisels and plane blades
Knives with a core layer of White/Blue Paper Steel
Axes and hatchets
High-alloy tool steels
Western chisels and plane blades
Knives with a core layer of powder
metallurgy steels or stainless steels
e.g. vG-10 steel
Sculptors gouges from Pfeil

the abrasive surface should always match the tool


to be sharpened in size, although generally speaking,
the larger the better.

A

A noRton InDIa oILStone


the gentle, highly pure aluminium oxide
used for the manufacturing of this stone
is much finer than the abrasives of other
synthetic oilstones. additionally the
stone is highly effective and does not
clog easily.
Pre-soaked with oil in the factory,
it comes ready for use.

How do I clean and true oilstones?


Clotted oilstones can be cleaned simply by wiping them with petroleum. to also
get the pores clean we recommend using an old toothbrush. For trueing, it is best
to use 100 grit wet/dry sandpaper with petroleum on a strong glass or stone plate.
after cleaning, you should saturate the stone with oil again.
For honing oil
see page 126.

For trueing set see page 119.

Natural Japanese Stones

WORKSHOP

a blade and sharpening stone must be as perfect a match as bride and groom according to legendary blacksmith, Shigeoshi Iwasaki. Finding the ideal pairing is no easy task in either case. Despite the excellent performance of synthetic stones, many experienced sharpeners still prefer natural stones for sharpening their finest
blades. japanese sharpening stones are particularly renowned for their ability to harmoniously sharpen handforged carbon steels. they can bring a blades full potential to the fore and allow the sharpening process itself
to become a pleasant ritual. the finest stones from the Honyama quarries are becoming increasingly difficult
to acquire - we take great pleasure in still being able to offer these rare treasures. natural japanese stones may
only be used with water and must be kept protected from frost. Please note that the stones may have slight
natural imperfections and may vary somewhat in size.

Belgian Coticule Whetstones

the quarrying of Belgian


whetstones in the ardennes is first
mentioned in a Roman document.
But the story of these natural
honing stones goes further back
than that. the approx. 480 millionyear-old grey yellow sedimentary
stones, originating from volcanic
ash, are composed of very fine garnet crystals. During honing these
are released and in combination
with the water and abrasion debris
make a honing paste. the garnets
only remove fine shavings from the
metal and ensure a good polish.
unique combination of speed and
grain size.

Arkansas Oilstones

Fine grained, extremely wear-resistant honing stones, for use with an


oil lubricant. Due to their high degree
of hardness and stable bond, particularly well-suited for polishing
curved cutting edges. the sharpening
stones we offer have a uniform
structure and are crack-free. the
black stones are somewhat harder
than the white ones. they originate
from quarries in the ouachita
Mountains in arkansas (uSa) that
unfortunately are almost depleted.

Interesting fact: to produce 1 kg of


sharpening stones approx. 1500 kg
of cliff must be removed. the thin
yellow slices are glued to a slate
base and cut to size. Grit approx.
6000 8000.

Shaped Stones and Shaped Sharpeners


King / Sun Tiger

Matsunaga is one of the largest manufacturers of sharpening stones in japan. In the West, these stones are
usually known as King stones or Sun tiger stones. the stones of the King or Sun tiger series have a relatively
soft bond, which allows the abrasives to be continually exposed during use, making the stone highly effective.
these stones are particularly suitable for extremely hard, low-alloy carbon steels (White and Blue Paper Steel).
Before use, soak the stones in water for at least 15 minutes. they can also be stored in water permanently.

DMT Diamond Stones

the uS-based company Diamond Machining technology, (DMt) is the


leading manufacturer of quality diamond sharpening stones. DMt tools
are precision manufactured, highly wear resistant and extremely effective. the monocrystalline diamonds*, permanently embedded in a nickel
matrix, guarantee remarkable sharpening speed even when working the
hardest tool steels. the diamond-coated blocks remain permanently
plane, and are especially suitable for tools with straight blades as well
as for producing plane surfaces (e.g. backs of plane and chisel blades,
plane soles, scrapers). also suitable for carbide coated cutters, HSS, as
well as non-metal materials (glass, ceramic etc.). We recommend moistening the DMt stones with water and grinding with little pressure.

* Monocrystalline diamonds are


significantly more wear resistant
than the polycrystalline diamonds
used to make lesser quality
diamond sharpening tools.

Axes with slightly curved blades - DICTUM sharpening tips


When sharpening axes, the geometry of the cutting edge is often changed. this is
largely due to chips in the cutting edge. When sharpened, more material is removed
on the chipped part of the blade. the shape of the cutting edge, however, has a
significant effect on the function of the axe.
19 mm
6 mm

advantages of slightly curved cutting edges:


Reduced risk of chipping
Jammed axes can be rolled out over the edge
Strokes are effortless as only part of the blade drives into the wood at once
an axe with a strongly curved cutting edge has the disadvantage that more pressure
is placed on the centre of the blade when the axe is driven into wood. this makes
it easier for the axe to get jammed. In addition, the striking force usually does not
suffice to drive the strongly recessed ends of the blade into the wood. A strongly
curved cutting edge is therefore
ineffective.

7 mm

Forest axe

the cutting edge of an axe should be slightly curved. a recess of 58 mm on


both sides is ideal. Felling axes, which require greater accuracy, have only minor
recesses.

Throwing axe

the only exception is the throwing axe.


a throwing axe needs a strongly curved
cutting edge so that it remains stuck
even when thrown at an oblique angle.

Felling axe

We therefore recommend attention has


to be turned on the shape of the blade
when sharpening axes to ensure they
can be used as effectively as possible.

Arkansas Oil Stones

Fine grained, extremely wear-resistant honing stones, for use with an


oil lubricant. Due to their high degree
of hardness and stable bond, particularly well-suited for polishing
curved cutting edges. the sharpening stones we offer have a uniform
structure and are crack-free. the
black stones are somewhat harder
than the white ones. they originate
from quarries in the ouachita
Mountains in arkansas (uSa) that
unfortunately are almost depleted.

Belgian Coticule Whetstones

the quarrying of Belgian whetstones


in the ardennes is first mentioned
in a Roman document. But the
story of these natural honing stones
goes further back than that. the
approx. 480 million-year-old grey
yellow sedimentary stones, originating from volcanic ash, are composed of very fine garnet crystals.
During honing these are released
and in combination with the water
and abrasion debris make a honing
paste. the garnets only remove fine
shavings from the metal and ensure
a good polish. unique combination
of speed and grain size.

CBn stands for Cubic Boron nitride, an abrasive grain that is nearly as hard as
diamond but much better suited for sharpening hardened steel. Sharpening on
diamond wheels produces heat, and from around 170 C causes a chemical reaction between the diamond grain and the steel alloys which destroys the diamond
grain. CBn, on the other hand, only reacts at above 400 C, and is only destroyed
at 700 C and above.

Hollow grinding of chisel and plane blades sharpening tips by DICTUM in collaboration with Garrett Hack

Grinding a Hollow Bevel

the bevel cut by a small-diameter grindstone is ground hollow, whereas the bevel
shaped with a stone is not (see drawing A). Whether to hollow-grind is part of the
ongoing sharpening debate.

Plane iron

Grinding wheel

A
a hollow-ground edge tends to be weak, but it is
easy to hone.

a straight bevel has a strong edge, but the entire


bevel needs to be honed when sharpening.

the best compromise: a strong edge and a hollow


grind for easier honing.

the advantage of hollow grinding is the speed with which the actual cutting bevel
can be honed, without having to remove metal across the entire bevel. every time
you resharpen, the hollow is slowly honed away or grows so small that eventually the
bevel needs to be reground. Woodworkers who do not hollow-grind believe that the
cutting edge is stronger since it is fully supported by a bevel the whole thickness of
the iron. this is certainly true if the hollow extends very close to the cutting edge.
In practice, hollow grinding with an 200 mm diameter or larger grinding wheel and
honing the bevel 0.4 mm or more creates an edge that`s adequately strong.
For japanese or other hard irons, a slight hollow grind and then honing the bevel
well back from the cutting edge will give the iron the necessary durability.

the Shinko grinder enables the achievement
of professional sharpening results. Clogging rarely occurs with the open-pored
japanese waterstones. Water cooling and
plane-honing produces long-lasting and
strong edges. Because no heat is generated, the blade can be held very close to
its edge and guided very accurately. no
sparks are produced, allowing the device
to be safely operated in workshops and
instructional settings. the stone surrounding foam ring is easily pressed down
when sharpening long blades.

this extremely light oil is extracted from
the leaves of the camellia tree and a
superb corrosion inhibitor for tools of all
kind. Camellia oil is not susceptible to
resinification and may also be used for
cleaning, sharpening and lubrication purposes. the oil contains a small amount
of high-purity liquid paraffin. thus the oil
is water-repellent and shows an extreme
resistance against acids e.g. hand sweat.
It is non-toxic (paraffin is often used in
the cosmetic industry) but not food-safe.
not suitable for direct contact with food
and kitchen knives. For that purpose we
recommend the pure Sinensis Camellia
oil (no. 705280).

Corrosion protection:
Camellia oil is acidfree, not volatile and not susceptible to
resinification, making it the ideal oil to
protect tools from rust. Made from pure
natural plant products and food safe, it
is especially suited for the preservation
of kitchen knives made of carbon steel.
Wood protection: When applied to
wooden surfaces, it is absorbed quickly
due to its low viscosity. once absorbed,
it helps protect the wood from damage

Body care: Camellia oil makes an excellent base for the preparation of lotions,
creams and soaps for cosmetic use. as
a massage oil or hair oil, it has for ages
been found irreplaceable by japanese

japanese Hammers
the simple outward appearance of
the japanese hammer (Genno) conceals its inner sophistication. the
hammer head is soft in the middle
and hardened only at the ends.
this allows the full force of a blow
to be transferred while simultaneously dampening vibrations and
reducing the hammers bounce.
one face of the hammer is flat while
the other is slightly domed, making
it especially useful for driving nails
flush with a surface. the Gennos
high efficiency means you can
generally select a lighter weight
in comparison to conventional
european carpenters hammers.
Replacement handles are available
upon request.

a triumph of japanese blacksmithing:
this attractive Damascus steel hammer
proves that a highly sophisticated implement can be produced from mankinds
oldest tool, despite its archaic appearance. the selectively hardened striking
surfaces are forge welded to the soft
basic body of the hammer. this reduces
the hammers bounce and therefore
minimizes stress on the wrist. the master
blacksmith plays with the delightful
colour-contrast of the polished layers of

the soft body is selectively hardened, then
given a kind of hammered look. Heating
the soft steel to varying temperatures
(250-300 C) results in a coloured, shimmering surface. each head is engraved
with the name of the master blacksmith.

Dragons are
considered the
oldest and most
powerful mythical creatures
in japan and
are often revered as a talisman and the
symbol of imperial power. the head of
this hammer is the combination of the
work of a japanese master black-smith
and a over 90 year old engraver. after
the blacksmith has forged the blank in
the fire and then selectively hardened it,
the engraver engraves the matt finish,
impact-absorbing middle part on one
side with a hammer and graver. In order to
achieve a vivid effect, the Ryu (dragon)
engraving is gone over several times until
reaching its final depth. a handle made
of japanese red oak complements this

a japanese hammer (Genno) generally has a flat and
a curved face. the flat face is suitable for fitting work
or for striking chisels. the curved face is used for driving nails. First tap the nail in up to the neck with the
flat face of the Genno, then seat it with one sharp tap
of the curved face. the curved face prevents damaging the surface of the wood.

Hammer veneering is a proven technique for making and restoring veneers. the
pre-steamed and ironed veneer is pressed down using the warmed veneer hammer.
Working from the middle of the piece outwards, the hammer is moved back and forth
across the piece to force out bubbles and excess glue. the rounded face distributes
pressure efficiently and evenly.

Hammering Tips
When driving a nail into a piece of
wood, friction causes an incredible
amount of heat to be produced. this
heat destroys the woods fibers and
tends to loosen the nails ultimate grip
on the wood. It is therefore best to
use the shortest, thinest appropriate
nail. For hardwood we recommend
pre-drilling the wood or to snip off the
points of the nails. the snipped off
points of the nails allows them to cut
the fibers when entering the wood.

Forged Nails
Because of their square shafts (larger surface area than conventional round nails)
and coarse surfaces, forged nails are more difficult to pull out than the conventiontal
round nails commonly used today. their shafts are tapered, resulting in an equal
distribution of pressure along the length of the nail, which also makes it harder to
pull out and lowers the risk of splitting the wood. the nails are primarily used in
carpentry, boat building and restoration.

a pry bar is often thought of as a rough tool used for
stripping. But the smaller bars in particular are an
indispensable aid for restoring furniture, doors and
windows. Because of the low surface pressure, a wide
blade, for example, can be used to remove parts from
a workpiece without damaging it.

Compared with milled gouges, forged turning gouges


have a denser structure and are thus more resistant to
wear. In the past, this difference was much more serious,
resulting in two gouge variants. today, the preference is
to forge the larger gouges to reduce material waste.

With this remarkable tool, you are
able to save the

bowl in one piece
and therefore produce several bowls
out of one wooden
block. especially
with scarce pieces
of wood that have unique grain it is
possible to optimally make use of the
wood and meanwhile save time. the tool
post has to be inserted into the banjo.
the solid design allows working without
vibrations on big bowls and is thus userfriendly.

By using a special hardening process
the blades are highly wear resistant

Axminster Chucks

axminster has been producing 4-jaw chucks for woodturning lathes since 1984. the english company offers a
suitable chuck size for every application, not to mention excellent value for money. the chucks along with all
accessories are made in england on CnC machines and have been developed over years working closely with
experienced turners.

F axMInSteR evoLutIon SK114


WooDtuRnInG CHuCK, SoLo
this chuck features a super-slim stainless steel body incorporating a new design of longer accessory mounting jaws.
these jaws sit deeper in the chuck and
offer a greater contact area within the
slide ways of the chuck, thus minimising
vibration during use. the ultra-compact
design keeps the workpiece as close as
possible to the headstock of your lathe
to lessen the load on the bearings and
prevent unwanted vibration. Indexing is
achieved by 24 peripheral slots and 36
holes on the chuck back plate, giving the
option of 10 or 15 indexing. Max. jaw

these segments make it possible to clamp complex shapes
in order to finish them, e.g. pieces without stub. no matter,
whether you have to work round, oval or angled pieces, the
movable rubber nobs keep hold of each workpiece. the clamping force is limited due to the construction of the jaws.
In order to achieve larger dimensions of the segments they
have been produced out of aluminium. this way the centrifugal forces are minimized compared to steel segments.

Rasps and Files

Hand-cut Rasps
Cut by masters, cherished by experts: until the early 20th century, the teeth of rasps were cut exclusively by
hand (using a special pointed punch and hammer) into the body of the rasp before it was hardened. Because
of the slightly varying depths and distances of the individual teeth, the work face is slightly inhomogeneous in
texture. this leads to a smoother cutting performance on fibrous material such as wood (no chattering). For
this reason, professionals still prefer hand-cut rasps even today.

Precision Rasps

Herdim rasps are hand-cut rasps which are manufactured in countless worksteps by the last of their craft.
the smoothing and shaping of the blank, cutting of the teeth, meticulous hardening, annealing and trueing
are typical manufacturing steps of the handmade rasp. up to 10,000 teeth, each one raised individually with
a hammer and special pointed punch, ensure smooth results without becoming clogged. Made of hardened
carbon steel, the rasps are highly durable. the tangs are annealed.

Lie-Nielsen Floats

Use:
For hard materials and end grain
For making wooden plane bodies
For finishing mortises

the term float for an extra-coarse


single-cut file goes back to the
19th century. Formerly developed
for making wooden plane bodies,
they are now also used for surfaces
that are difficult to work on in cabinetmaking. a hardness of 52 HRC
allows resharpening by hand with
a triangular file.

Advantages:
Creates smooth surfaces
Controlled removal of material
allows precise working

to prevent the fingers
from slipping, checkerings are cut into knife
handles and on the
backs of blades. the
checkering file is especially suited for this
task. the extraordinary
cut originates through lengthwise grooves
in the blade which are crossed by 90
grooves. through this cut small teeth are
formed which cut on the push stroke. to
produce the checkering the file is moved
in one spot forward and backwards.

Monocrystalline vs. Polycrystalline


Basically, there are two different
manufacturing processes in which
either monocrystalline (similar structure
to a natural diamond) or polycrystalline
diamonds are created.
Monocrystalline:
Higher wear-resistance,
ensuring a long edge life
Higher microblade quality,
producing smooth results
Hardest material, allowing
you to work on all materials

Polycrystalline:
High resistance to pressure
In use, the diamond coating breaks
up to form smaller, even-sized
abrasive particles which remove less
material and reduce the edge life
Grit comparison:

Tips:
Check the accuracy of the Sashigane on
any straight edge by marking a perpendicular line, turning the square over and
remarking the same line. If the line is not
identical, the square is inaccurate and
should be adjusted. to correct an inaccurate square, place the corner of the Sashigane on an anvil. If the angle is too
large, lightly tap the outside corner (a)

with a small hammer. If the angle is


too small, tap the
inside corner (B).
the hammer blows
misshape the steel
slightly, causing it to open or close.
Do not strike too hard, and often recheck
the angle.

You can set this tool to any additional


degrees you may require between 0 and
90 and mark them or read them off on
the beam. the movable bracket with
degree scale is seamlessly welded to the
horizontal and vertical marking blades
and is also firmly riveted to the square
itself. With careful consideration of where
you place the tool along the edges of the
workpiece, you can greatly reduce the
time required for marking because you
do not have to set any opposite angles.

Spirit Levels

E CRICK
WooDen LeveL, 600 MM
this unusual wooden spirit level from
the uSa was developed in the mid-19th
century, originally for masonry work. But
because of its impressive look, feel and
precision, it also has what it takes to
become a cult tool among woodworkers.
as the wood only minimally absorbs heat
or cold, it is comfortable to hold even in
extreme temperatures. It also absorbs
any blows during alignment and gentle
readjustment.

RouBo on MaRquetRY
Don Williams, Michele Pietryka-Pagn,
Philippe Lafargue:
to Make as Perfectly as Possible:
Roubo on Marquetry is the first
english-language
translation of the
most importantwoodworking
book of the 18th
century, written
by the exceptional
French cabinetmaker a. j. Roubo.
a team of translators, writers, woodworkers
and artists worked for more than six years

to bring this first volume


of Roubos work to an english-speaking
audience. the book is not just about
veneer and marquetry techniques,
but covers a wide range of topics for
woodworkers who are interested in
handtool woodworking or history. the
volume contains sections on sharpening,
staining, finishing, wood selection, and
plans for building a German workbench
and constructing a clock case. But most
of all, to Make as Perfectly as Possible
provides a window into the woodworking
world of the 18th century, a world that is
both foreign and yet strangely familiar.

Forstner Bits
E CoLt MaxICut
FoRStneR BItS
the Colt MaxiCut cutter head uses a
novel geometric design that combines
the advantages of both a Forstner and
a universal bit. Drilling half or diagonal
holes or drilling holes into extremely hard
woods, MDF boards, or veneer laminate
sheets are no problem for the Colt
MaxiCut. together with the self-cutting
centering tip, the chip breakers on the
main cutters reduce heat build up and
increase service life. these bits feature
the RotaStop function for quick release.
the idea behind RotaStop is to provide
the shank with a complex geometry that
makes not only for simple tool change
but also for optimal torque transmission
without slip.

Drill bit and router cutter in one:
Looking like a Forstner bit at first sight,
this bit is a unique combination of cutting blades that allow it to also be moved
backwards and sideways to a limited
extent. the drill bit is stabilised by a
centering tip and the two main cutting
blades. another major advantage of this
drill bit is the long shaft which, combined with the sideways cutting function,
allows easy drilling of curved holes, for
example for running cables or tubes in

drywall constructions. Spurs pre-cut the


hole, thus allowing smooth and clean
hole edges. Hardened tool-steel alloy.

the pre-drilling of wood
screws takes on a different
quality with this countersink
drill. Greater tensile strength
is achieved with the tapered
design than with cylinder
drills; at the same time the
risk of screw breakage is
reduced. the drilling depth
is exactly adjustable to the
borehole depth by means
of an adjusting ring. the
countersunk head is also
adjustable in depth, so that
a dowel can be inserted if
required (for invisible screw

Phillips or Pozidriv?
unlike Phillips bits (PH), Pozidriv bits (Pz)
have additional radial triangular profiles
Phillips bit (PH)
which engage in the notches of a Pozidriv
screw head. a common Phillips bit will
easily slip if insufficient pressure is exerted
on the screw head. Because of the additional
grip, the Pozidriv bit requires less pressure.
Pozidriv bit (Pz)
although both screw types look very similar,
only one bit version (PH or Pz) fits the screw
and prevents damage to the screw head. Pozidriv screw heads
are mainly found in countersunk screws in woodworking (Spax).

Flexible Clamping

All-steel screw clamps:


thanks to the
flexible fixed and
sliding arms, the
clamping force is
much less affected
by vibrations than
with rigid spheroidal or malleable
cast-iron clamps,
so the workpiece is
held more firmly in place.

thanks to the all-steel arms, these clamps are designed for flexible, elastic clamping
(metal and wood) and guarantee high strength at a low weight. they have also been
proven as industrial clamps for the fixation of welding parts. the galvanised fixed arm
and the clamping pad are forged from a single piece. the burnished trapezoidal
spindle runs precisely in the guide and allows delicate clamping. Ball-jointed pressure

C PIHeR HIGH-PeRFoRManCe CLaMP MaxIPReSS F


this solid clamp made of high-grade spheroidal cast iron combines extreme power
and a high technical specification. Its enormous clamping pressure puts conventional
clamps in the shade. Whether in furniture-making, carpentry or metalworking, the
clamp holds together both flat and round workpieces. the main difference compared
with conventional clamps is the pressure bolt, which does not turn when the clamp is
tightened, so the freshly glued wooden parts do not drift apart.
Benefits of a Piher clamp:
Fully covered screw thread, thus protected from impact and contaminants
(glue, swarf, cement, etc.)
Double thread increases both speed and clamping pressure
Greasing hole for optimum lubrication of the thread
Pressure bolt does not turn during tightening, thus preventing freshly glued
wooden parts from drifting apart
Spring-activated brake on the bar keeps the jaws firmly in place
The surface of the fixed jaw is grooved for easy positioning and maximum grip
on round workpieces
Ergonomic plastic handle for maximum force transmission
(approx. 900 - 1000 kg), foldable (180 degrees), interchangeable and
heat-resistant up to 100 C
The straight back allows you to set up the clamp horizontally without it tilting,
which makes it easier to glue large workpieces
Solid bar cross-section of 8 x 35 mm ensures torsion-free clamps, even
in extra-long versions
PVC protective caps prevent pressure points on the wood

Clamping pressure Maxipress F 9,000 n (approx. 900 kg).

When clamping together frames or


furniture bodies, you check the four
corners for perpendicularity by measuring the diagonals, which must be the
same length. If one diagonal is longer,
meaning that the frame is not square,
attach a pair of clamps to the long
sides of the frame parts at an angle to
force the distorted frame into a right
angle. alternatively you can attach an
additional screw clamp over the longer
diagonal from corner to corner to correct
the angle.

the traditional shaving horse is an
indispensable tool when working with
drawknives. Rods, rungs, table legs and
other long, round or board-shaped parts
can be gripped with the foot-activated

the use of both hands. Shaving horses
allow you to work in a position which is
ergonomic, reduces stress on the back
and most importantly, is absolutely safe.

Two frequently asked questions


regarding magnetic tool bars:
Does magnetization negatively affect the
sharpness of cutting tools?
no, magnetized steel does not change
its crystalline structure. It can, however, complicate re-sharpening because
the magnetized metal particles (swarf)
tend to stick to the cutting edge.
Are all steels ferromagnetic?
no, pure austenitic stainless steels
(including many va steels) are not
magnetic. However, these steels often
have ferritic elements, meaning that
the majority of the steels used to
make stainless steel knives do
stick to magnetic tool holders.

Woolpower

Woolpower aB was established in


1969 in stersund, Sweden, for
the production of nylon tights.
In the early 1970s, the company
developed a new material in collaboration with the Swedish army:
ullfrott original. Beside military
and police organizations, mainly
people who work outside and many
others who like to feel warm are
among the customers for clothes
made of this fibre.

Woolpower articles are certified


by ko-tex - an
international
human ecology label that shows
that the garments contain
no toxic or harmful substances
Wool does not retain odor and
therefore the clothes keep a
pleasant smell even after long
periods of use

Woolpower Ullfrott Original

and forms of activity

Most Ullfrott Original products


are manufactured on circular knitting
machines. the advantage of this technology is that the garments worn next
to the skin only have minimal seams,
which results in a very comfortable fit

unisex thermal underwear for hunting,


handicrafts, and outdoor activities
Ullfrott Original is a fabric made of
two-thirds fine Merino wool and onethird synthetic fibers, thus guaranteeing optimum elasticity and durability

Can be machine-washed at up to
60 C (104 F) and tumble tried
at medium heat
Made in Sweden. Each garment
is labelled with the name of the
seamstress

ullfrott original is 80 % air. the lofty


terry loops together with the crimped
wool structure form a jersey knit that
traps large quantities of air and therefore provides good heat insulation.

For more Woolpower products see www.dictum.com

Different material thicknesses are


available (200 g/m, 400 g/m and
600 g/m) and can be combined to
ideally suit different temperatures

Merino wool does not itch:


B

the wool of Merinos is very


finely crimped. When wool fibers
are so thin, they will yield to the
skin on contact and therefore not
irritate the nerves (no annoying
itching). ullfrott original
is made exclusively from fine
Merino wool with a fiber
thickness of 22 microns, so it
provides maximum comfort.

adapts to temperature and activity level
and accordingly either cools or warms
the body. the integrated polyamide fibres make the underwear more durable.
The Lite collection has a modern
design and is made of a shimmering
black fabric highlighted by light green
contrast stitching.

During increased activity level or in


high ambient temperature, the body
generates perspiration to cool down.
Wool is hygroscopic, i.e. it is able to
absorb moisture from the air, and in
this way it also absorbs the moisture
vapor from the body. It can absorb up
to 30 % of its weight without feeling
damp.

Micro-Mesh Abrasive and Polishing Cloth

the finest quality smoothing and polishing material:


Micro-Mesh is excellent for intermediate sanding between coats of paint, retouching and fine finishing work on
wood, plastic, plexiglass and metal surfaces, including polishing, on irregular and curved surfaces in particular.
the abrasive particles are suspended in a silicon matrix firmly bound to a thin, highly flexible textile basis, so
that no residues remain on the finished surface. Micro-Mesh can be used dry, with water, or with petroleum,
and is very long-lasting under normal wear.

abrasive paper,

Micro Mesh,
1500 grit

Sandpaper is designed to aggressively


remove materials. the abrasive particles are bound to a stiff resin coat and
leave scratch marks in the sanding
direction because of their differing
orientation.

With Micro-Mesh, however, the


abrasive particles are bound to a
flexible fabric base. The particles can
therefore move in every direction and
align with the sanding direction. this
prevents scratch marks.

the quality and perception of any

was extremely time consuming.

versatile, light oil
from the seeds of the
camellia tree:
Corrosion protection:
Camellia oil is acidfree, not volatile and
not susceptible to resinification, making
it the ideal oil to protect tools from rust.
Made from pure natural plant products
and food safe, it is especially suited for
the preservation of kitchen knives made
of carbon steel.
Wood protection: When applied to wooden
surfaces, it is absorbed quickly due
to its low viscosity. once absorbed, it
helps protect the wood from damage by
moisture, dirt and uv light. Clear, not
discolouring, it accentuates the woods
natural beauty. non-hardening.
Body care: Camellia oil makes an excellent base for the preparation of lotions,
creams and soaps for cosmetic use. as
a massage oil or hair oil, it has for ages
been found irreplaceable by japanese
geishas.

Organic Swedish Linseed Oil

Cold-pressed from linseeds, this hardening oil is for

Linolja can be used directly in its pure form. It is also
suitable for producing linseed-oil paint (with iron oxide
pigment), as well as mixed with tar oil for use outdoors.

Linseed oil varnish manufacturing process


Boiling linseed oil initiates a polymerisation process in which the oil thickens
slightly. this process is halted when the oil cools down and by the airtight atmosphere (packaging), and resumed when the oil is actually applied to the wood. the
process then continues and the oil dries faster. Depending on the original quality
of the linseed oil and how long and hot the oil was boiled, it is either still thin and
fluid or becomes brittle relatively quickly after being applied. When siccatives are
mixed with the oil in the boiling process, we call the result linseed oil varnish.
Here too, the amount and type of drying agent determines the drying time, but
also the environmental impact.

Linseed oil paints


Linseed oil paint has a long and proven tradition as an interior and exterior paint.
It has the following excellent properties:
100% natural ingredients
Vapour permeable - the wood can
breathe
Can be applied to oiled and
already painted surfaces
Stabilises the surface
Natural UV protection
Is absorbed by the wood, thus prevents
unwanted formation of layers and
peeling off (frequent long-term reaction
with industrial paint products)
Long shelf life - can still be
used after long storage

For our linseed oil varnishes, we only use seasoned


and thus degummed, cold-pressed linseed oil that was
boiled gently and thus achieves good penetration and
quick drying. the manganese siccatives used for the
linseed oil varnish are among the most environmentally
compatible drying agents and their addition is strictly
controlled.
tion, we add a small amount of IPBC
fungicide to the varnish. With linseed
oil pastes with a high zinc content and
thus natural anti-fungal protection,
the linseed oil varnish can also be used
without fungicides for exterior use. zinc
also provides longer-lasting anti-fungal
protection. Because of its clear colour,
linseed oil varnish itself does not provide
any uv protection and thus can only
be used outdoors in combination with
linseed oil pastes.

Exterior use

Interior use

Choice of colour
For exterior use it is advisable to use
light colours, as darker colours attract
the heat in the sunny season.
this causes:
Faster decomposition of the oil,
so it needs freshening up more
frequently
Cracks and warps in the wood and
therefore damage to the surface
Protection against fungi
the higher the zinc content in a pigment,
the better the paint inhibits fungal
growth. this is important for the choice
of colour for exterior use. the zinc content is specified in the product information on the pastes. When mixing paints with
a low share of zinc, you should add linseed oil varnish with fungicide additive.
Uv protection
uv protection, which is not provided with raw, cold-bleached or boiled linseed oil
or varnish in its pure form, is generally achieved by adding colour pigments.
Mixing components
Because painting outdoors is heavily dependent on the weather and long drying
times can become a problem, we recommend using linseed oil varnish or oil
lacquer as the basis for exterior use. oil lacquer is only slightly absorbed by the
wood and, unlike linseed oil varnish, forms a coating layer. Parts that are subject
to strongly fluctuating wood moisture, such as windows and doors, should therefore
preferably be treated with varnish. You can also mix pine tar with the linseed oil
pastes to obtain a different shade.

Choice of colour
For interior use you can use any colour.
Mixing components
Suitable mixing components are raw,
cold-bleached or boiled linseed oil, oil
lacquer or varnish. Do not use linseed oil
varnish with fungicides for interior use,
as these can still evaporate even after a
long time.

Linseed oil paints on metal


Choice of colour
Linseed oil paint is also an ideal base
coat for rust-proofing metal parts. For
this purpose, we especially recommend
Haematite Red Lead and Graphite. Both
colours provide excellent rust protection.
Mixing components
to ensure that the base coat is thoroughly
absorbed by the metal, we recommend
using linseed oil. For the second and
third coat, you should use oil varnish
(Le tonkinois, no. 810087) to seal the
surface permanently against penetrating
water. Please find a detailed description

Tung oil
tung oil in both its pure and liquid form
has a distinctive smell that disappears
after drying or when mixed with either
orange oil or balsam oil of turpentine.
Because of its odour, we do not recommend it for cupboard interiors. the tung
oil offered here is ecologically sound. It
is not pre-oxidized, nor is it mixed with
chemical drying agents. Consequently,
it takes up to three weeks to become
dry (Drying times vary considerably
depending on the environmental conditions, type of wood and preparation of
the surface). once dry, the oils film is
chemically stable and free of dangerous
emissions. Pure tung oil is relatively viscous, but its ability to penetrate can be
improved by thinning with balsam oil of
turpentine (no. 705288) or by warming.
A LIGnea, tunG oIL
High-quality natural oil for indoor and
outdoor use:
Lignea, the oil obtained from the
fruits of the tung
tree, has many uses
both in-/ and outdoors, e.g. for furniture, decks, flooring,
turned items, musical instruments,
wooden toys and wooden boats and
can be used for impregnating fabrics
and even masonry. tung oil is absorbed
by wooden surfaces very quickly and
hardens them after drying, making
them mechanically stronger and highly
water-resistant. Provides approximately
twice as much protection as linseed
oil. It deepens colours and enhances

1
the contrast of the grain, but the wood
retains its natural visual and tactile
characteristics. the protective film is
elastic, even in the long term, and, in
contrast to linseed oil, darkens very
little. If the finish becomes damaged,
it can be easily retouched by rubbing
more oil over the damaged area. Lignea
can be applied without any problems,
even in multiple coats, using either a
brush or a piece of cloth, and can be
thinned with turpentine or mixed with
other vegetable oils (e.g. linseed or
camellia oil) depending on the users
preference.

B PoPPY SeeD oIL


Colour-true:
Food safe oil extracted from the seeds of
the white poppy flower (Papaver somniferum) is ideal for fine craftwork objects,
turned parts, toys, kitchen furniture and
kitchen utensils. Because of its good grip
it is suitable for knife and tool handles
and, along with pigments, for making
valuable paint oils and artists colours.
the high transparency of poppy seed oil
makes it the perfect base for violin varnishes and clear protective wood finishes.
It provides excellent protection against
moisture and dirt, does not yellow, and
penetrates deeply into the wood. Poppy
seed oil dries much slower than linseed
oil. Multiple coats of poppy seed oil yield
a warm, silky gloss and a surface which
is pleasant to the touch. Poppy seed oil
can be mixed with other vegetable oils
and solvents.

C PuRe oRanGe oIL


natural diluting and cleaning agent:
Low-viscosity orange oil from the peel of
the sweet orange, ideal for thinning vegetable-based protective wood oils, and its
grease dissolving properties make it a useful household cleaner. Mixing 1-5 % of it
with a linseed or tung oil finish markedly
improves penetration, facilitates application and lends these oils a refreshing aroma. In combination with carnauba wax or
beeswax it can make a variety of agents
for cleaning and caring for wooden surfaces, antiques and leather. orange oil is
also suited for use as aromatic oil.

Because this oil contains up to 95 % solids, you will only need one coat, saving
you time and money. the thick oil lends
an opulent feel and keeps the open-pored
structure of the surface material. It refines
and protects stressed surfaces of wood,
open-pored stone and cork and is thus
ideal for floors, work surfaces and other
used surfaces (even outdoors if water
can run off freely). there is no need to
deresinify the wood beforehand, as the
hard oil contains resin solvents. Coated
surfaces can be walked on after approx.
72 hours. High coverage, 25-30 ml will

Le Tonkinois
It is an ecologically safe oil varnish that has been approved by the French navy for
use on their boats. Le tonkinois provides excellent protection from moisture and is
suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. this makes it ideal not only for furniture in
the house but also for wood lagging, windows and external doors as well as garden
furniture. the oil varnish is applied with a brush in several coats with intermediate
sanding, similar to stains, and should be renewed after about 1-2 years (depending
on weather conditions). We recommend
diluting Le tonkinois with turpentine oil
for the first coat. Detailed application
instructions are provided.

Resins
Shellac

the consummate surface technique:


French polishing is an incomparable way of bringing out the beauty of the
wood. It creates a mechanically wear-resistant, physiologically compatible
surface that does not become brittle and is of constant colour. the resin,
an exudate of an east Indian scale insect, has been known since time
immemorial as one of the best materials for making clear wood finishes.

Shellac is notable for its hardness, transparency and bonding strength.


Its excellent insulative properties make it the substance of choice for use
in traditional gilding (as a primer coat and fixative). For most applications, the shellac flakes are generally dissolved in alcohol and applied
using either a cloth rubbing pad or brush in several coats. the shellac
flakes offered here are highly pure, dewaxed and can be mixed to create
a specifically desired tone or effect.

this brush features genuine leather
inserts. after applying wax to a hardwood
surface, it is an excellent choice for
polishing. It can also be used to smooth
out roughened wooden surfaces after the
staining process. the brush should only
be used for either of these two purposes,
because in case there are wax residues
on the leather inserts after polishing,
these residues may affect the application of paint after the staining process.

ebony, one of the hardest, densest woods
in the world, is often used in turnery,
cabinet making, restoration work and
instrument making for parts which need
to either be particularly beautiful or
resistant to wear, e.g. keys, furniture
and tool handles, jewellery, bowls and
intarsia. ebony takes on an excellent
finish due to its fine-pored structure.

Due to its fine-pored structure and its


low shrinkage, it is ideal for woodturning,
knife handles and for small decorative
items. Density approx. 850 kg/m.

F WenGe
this tropical wood from West africa has a
light brown core, which takes on a coffeecoloured hue when dry. the richly contrasting, coarse light/dark structure, usually
combined with irregular or interlocked
grain, gives wenge its exceptionally
decorative character. the hard and heavy
wood is used for high-quality interior design furnishings and fittings, but also for
turning and carving. Density 860 kg/m.

G PaLMWooD
Its distinctive grain structure makes palmwood a
difficult material to work
with. But its dark-brown
clusters of fibre set in
the light heartwood give
it an extremely vibrant
appearance, making it desirable for knife
handles and ornaments.

2 Ebony, 2. Quality
ebony from streaked heartwood. the
greyish-brown streaks make the otherwise
deep black ebony somewhat lighter, yet
give it a special charm. Waxed ends and
virtually free of cracks.

Australian Precious Woods

In contrast to many types of tropical precious woods, australian precious woods are
harvested in a strictly controlled manner exclusively by federally licensed timber
merchants. Burls growing on 100-year-old trees are carefully removed in a manner
which actually revitalizes the living tree. the extraordinarily wild grain makes these
timbers wonderful for turning bowls and boxes, making knife handles, and carving
fine objects and jewellery.
all sizes and weights provided are approximate values which are affected by
the natural drying process of the wood.

A LInDenWooD
the linden tree is not only a tree of
myths, fidelity and love (Freya, goddess
of fertility lived in one), it is also one
of the carvers favourite woods. Its soft
wood and uniform cell structure allows it
to be easily worked by hand.

D BoxWooD
Boxwood is the wood turner's dream come
true - it has a very fine grain, is rigid but
easy to work, finishes well and takes on
a beautiful polish. Perfect for making
bowls, figurines, handles, balls, mechanical parts - the possibilities are limited
only by the size of the blank. Large
pieces of this slow-growing wood are very
rare. Harvested in the French Pyrenees.

F SICILIan oLIveWooD
Slow growing wood of the Sicilian olive
tree with attractive grain. Due to its very
high density and excellent polishability,
it is suitable for making everyday pieces
and jewellery of high aesthetic value
and wear-resistance. the cuts on offer
are relatively fresh and therefore have
to be processed under controlled drying
conditions (instructions included).

all sizes and weights provided are approximate values which are affected by
the natural drying process of the wood.

Pakka wood is the collective term for
impregnated veneers which are laminated
under high pressure. If used for knife
handles the shape of the handle brings
out the different wood layers which results in an attractive look. our blocks are
made from coloured birch veneers which
are completely saturated with synthetic
resin. this procedure makes the material
water-resistant and easy workable. Can
be glued with epoxy glue.

Materials
Raffir Stabilised Woods

In the stabilising process, the wood is filled with a specially developed acrylic resin in a high-pressure vacuum
treatment. the stabilised wood is extremely resistant, hardly absorbs any moisture and is thus very hygienic,
washable and warp-free (no shrinking or expanding). the high density of the material without open pores
means it only needs smoothing and polishing once to achieve a shiny surface. You can work it with conventional
tools without any problems. Weight and material density similar to tropical hardwood.

the cell structure and thus makes working
the wood easier, especially when turning.
It dries colourless. application: apply
with brush on end grain or place the
wood in the solution. objects treated with
Polycryl can be glued, stained, varnished

or oiled. Suitable for woodsculptors,


woodturners, knife and furniture makers.
Depending on the wood properties,
Polycryl can be diluted with up to
400 % water. Penetrates best in highmoisture-content wood.
Can also be used in vacuum chambers.

Pentacryl is a wood stabiliser used successfully by woodsculptors, woodturners
and furniture makers to reduce cracks
that form in works of green wood during
drying. In turned objects in particular, it
clearly shows its crack-reducing properties, reducing bowl loss due to cracks to
under 1 %. Pentacryl does not react with
the natural wood ingredients and gives
the wood a purer and lighter appearance.
application: apply with brush on end
grain or place the wood in the solution.
objects treated with Pentacryl can
be glued, stained, varnished or oiled.
the higher the moisture content of the

Micarta

Micarta is one of the most favoured handle materials in knifemaking - even for fine collectors knives. there are
good reasons for this: Micarta is produced using a special high pressure procedure which combines absorbent
material (cellulose material, linen etc.) with epoxy resin. the resulting material is an almost indestructible,
resistant against oils and chemicals. Paper Micarta feels slip free and very comfortable in the hand, even under
wet or cold conditions. the material can be easily refined by applying scrimshaw, engraving and carving.

Materials

Imitation Tortoise Shell

this material is made of casein proteins and looks almost identical to


natural tortoise shell. It is ideal for restoration work, inlays and jewellery.
the material is easy to process and feels extremely supple. Like other
natural materials (wood, ivory), the casein surfaces should not be exposed
to constant wet conditions. to bring the best out of glued imitation tortoise shell, the transparent sheets are often backed with coloured paper.
this emphasises the colour and hides the background grain pattern.

Birch Bark and Paper


Birch Bark

WORKSHOP

It contains essential oils with a


natural preserving effect, which
makes it ideal for making food
containers. the soft and flexible
bark has traditionally been shaped
to form vessels, shoes, backpacks,
knife sheaths, mats and baskets
using sewing and tucking techniques
- a material with almost limitless
possibilities. But it also has many technical and usage-related advantages.
Birch bark is extremely durable, very light (0.38 - 0.55 g/cm), fungistatic
and bacteriostatic, water-repellent, highly moisture-resistant, slip-proof
even when wet, easy-care, sustainable and ecologically produced. this
birch bark is from Siberia. Central european bark is too thin for use in
handicrafts.

Mother-of-Pearl

the shimmering multi-layered deposits found on the inside surface of sea shells yield one of the most fascinating
natural materials known to humankind. Mother-of-pearl's magical glossiness and intriguing array of colors make
it perfect for enhancing the appearance of turnery, furniture, ornamental objects, toys and music instruments.
It is easy to work and polish and therefore ideal for intarsia, marquetry and jewelry applications. the white, pink,
black and gold mother-of-pearl is harvested from the saltwater pearl (pinctada maxima). the paua mother-of-pearl
is harvested from a mussle species (haliotis iris) from the South Seas that has a highly figured and colorful grain
(blue/turquoise/green). Colors and materials as shown may vary from the original. thickness approx. 1.3 mm.

this 8-layer Suminagashi steel is usually
forged onto both sides of a hard core layer
(Blue or White Paper Steel). each of
these eight layers of steel consists in turn
of a "Gokunan-Koh" layer (traditional soft
steel) that is welded to a thin, alloyed
carbon steel layer, which prevents the

Original Japanese Kitchen Knives
outstanding knives with traditional blade shapes have been made in the traditional
manner in small japanese foundries for centuries. often with a high level of manual
work or even completely handmade. Knives of this classical form are known as Wabocho in japan. they are valued by experts because of the best steels, carefully
selected materials for the handles and ferrules, a high level of workmanship,

original design - and last but not least, extreme sharpness and sharpness retention.
the blades usually have a hard carbon steel core forge welded to one or more outer
layers of iron - similar to multi-layer Samurai swords. traditional materials and
forms are also used for the handles.

A taDaFuSa HoCHo
Hammer marks on the forged
skin - art and handcraft of high utility:
the individual traces of the blacksmiths
hammer from this traditional workshop
can be seen in the so-called forged skin
on the 3-layered blade surface. this
not only gives the blade a raw, original
appearance but also makes it easier to
care for, making this double-bevelled
knife robust and suitable for daily use.
the cutting edge of non-rustproof
Blue Paper Steel is perfectly polished
and sharpened, the outer layers are of
rustproof steel. the glue-laminated,
exotic wood ferrule provides an attractive
visual contrast to the blades.

**thermic wood: under the effect of heat


(170-250C) and steam, the wood structure
is changed and improved for special uses
(e.g. in the kitchen) in a targeted and natural way without adding any chemicals.
During the special treatment process, the
cell wall structure is modified in such a
way that the ability to absorb water is
reduced and the resistance against bacteria
is increased. the thermal treatment also
lends the wood a slightly darker tone.

japanese Knives
Blades from Masters Hand
Katsuhiro Hocho

For the highest standards


of use and aesthetics:
these unique kitchen knives are
forged from one of the hardest
blade steels. they are characterised not only by their phenomenal
sharpness and durability, but also
by the fascinating pattern of the
65-layer blade (cutting edge of
SG-2 steel).

A 1

these masterpieces are perfected


by handles of either water-resistant
desert ironwood, the densest wood
in the world, or of water-resistant
black Linen Micarta. the polished
nickel-silver bolsters harmonise superbly with the ergonomic handle.

Despite their top cutting performance, the knives are hardwearing due to their rustproof
blades bevelled on both sides, and
waterproof handles, making them
the first choice among professional
chefs. Hardness 63 HRC.

the pinning of the handle scales


with rosette-shaped mosaic pins
makes the knives real eye-catchers.

Teak Cutting Boards

teak is an extremely dense hardwood which is ideal for use in the kitchen
in the form of cutting and chopping boards or for serving food. Its naturally high oil and caoutchouc content gives it an antibacterial effect and
makes it extremely hard-wearing and resistant. the solid boards also sit

firmly during chopping. the wood is from controlled sustainable


FSC-certified plantations. to make sure the board retains its strong
colour, rub it with a little oil from time to time (e.g. with camellia oil
no. 705281).

Bamboo Cutting Boards

Bamboo is an extremely versatile material which has been used as a


building material, to produce textiles or bamboo charcoal in asia for
thousands of years. the wood is robust, extremely lightweight and flexible - qualities which make it ideal for use as a cutting board. the highgrade raw material has a light colour by nature; however through a

simple heating process the natural sugar content of


the wood is caramelized and thus lends the wood
its appealing dark shade. Bamboo is a highly
renewable natural and thus very ecofriendly raw material.

Cherry Bark Tea Box (Kabazaiku)

Kabazaiku, the traditional art of bark crafting, is especially common in


the area around akita, where the wild cherry tree forms a particularly
hard skin in the harsh mountain climate. For more than 200 years, artistic craftsmen have been creating fascinating objects from cherry bark.
to allow the bark to be shaped, it is first cleaned and made supple with

steam, then the pre-shaped pieces of bark are attached to the wooden
object with glue using a heated trowel. Cherry bark naturally keeps the
air moisture relatively stable and is thus an ideal material for tea boxes.
a precisely closing inside lid preserves the aroma of the tea. the tea
boxes are at the same time useful containers and works of art.

Cast-iron Cooking Pots and Pans


For over 900 years the japanese city of Mizusawa has been producing iron
utensils for the kitchen and for tea culture. Cast iron has several advantages over
stainless steel or aluminium:
The thicker walls of the vessels retain heat and transfer it evenly to the contents
Has around three times better heat conduction than stainless steel, so the heat
is distributed more evenly in the pot and the contents are also heated through
the walls
Is highly ferromagnetic, therefore heats up rapidly on/in induction ovens

the Laguiole folding knife is an
icon of French design. the trademarks of
this classic knife are the ergonomic shape
of blade and handle, the Bee stop and
the fine engraving on the spring. all
Laguiole L`aiglon handles have the traditional Shepherd`s cross of fine brass
rivets or silver nails. Shepherds bringing

Brief glossary of steel terms


White Paper Steel (Shiro Gami):
trade name for a highly pure carbon
steel made by the Hitachi Company,
mainly used for making cutting tools.
this steel is particularly hard and has
an especially fine martensitic structure.
this means you can grind it to exceptional sharpness. which retains for a
long time. not rust-proof.
(C = 1.2 %, Mn = 0.2 %, Si = 0.2 %,
S < 0.04 %, P < 0.02 %)
Blue Paper Steel (Ao Gami):
Similar to White Paper Steel but alloyed
with additional 0.4 % chromium and
1.5 % tungsten. this makes it somewhat tougher.
vG-10 steel:
Rustproof high-class blade steel, made
in takefu. Its content of cobalt and
carbides make it extremely durable.
(C = 1 %, Cr = 15 %, Co = 1.5 %,
Mn = 0.5 %, Mo = 1.0 %, P = 0.03 %,
Si =0.6 %, v = 0.2 %)
SG-2:
Rustproof heavy duty steel made
using the powder metallurgy process.
(C = 1.3 %, Cr = 15 %, Mo = 3 %,
v = 2 %)
Sandvik 12C27:
Stainless blade steel made in Sweden.
the company Sandvik continuously
improved this steel over a period of 45
years which evolved the 12C27 steel
into the high performing steel grade it
is today. It is very popular for making
hunting and pocket knives. Hardness
54-57 HRC. (C = 0.6 %, Cr = 13.5 %,
Si = 0.4 %, Mn = 0.4 %)

features a chrome content of 12 % and


is therefore designated as a so called
rust-resistant steel.
(C = 1.5 %, Cr = 12 %, Mo = 0.8 %,
v = 0.9 %, Si = 0.6 %, Mn = 0.6 %)
ATS34:
a very pure. rustproof carbon steel
made in japan that displays a very fine
crystalline structure due to its high
molybdenum content.
(C = 1 %, Cr = 14 %, Mo = 4 %,
Mn = 0.4 %, Si = 0.35 %, P = 0.03 %,
S = 0.02 %)
440C:
Hardenable rustproof steel originally developed for making ball bearings. High
wear- and corrosion resistance.
(C = 1 %, Cr = 17 %, Mn = 1 %,
Mo = 0.75 %, Si = 1 %, S = 0.03 %,
P = 0.04 %)
GIN 1:
Rustproof blade steel made by Hitachi.
Particularly corrosion- and wear-resistant
due to its high chromium content (chromium carbides).
(C = 0.9 %, Cr = 15.5 %, Mn = 0.6 %,
Mo = 0.3 %, Si = 0.35 %, S = < 0.03 %,
P < 0.02 %)
Carbon steel:
a non-alloyed tool steel with a carbon
content of 0.2 - 1.7 % which can be
sharpened to a very high degree due
to its fine grain structure.
PM steel:
Sintering allows metals which normally
cannot be alloyed or welded together
to be combined. the components are
mixed in powdered form and then hot
isostatically pressed in a process known
as Powder Metallurgy (PM). these rustproof steels even outreach low alloyed
steels in terms of hardness. However,

they cannot be grinded as fine as low


alloyed carbon steels (e.g. White Paper
Steel).
Tamahagane:
japanese sword steel produced from
iron sand (Masa) smelted in a charcoal
fired furnace. this process, called
tatara, is the earliest known method
(approx. 1800 years old) in which steel
can be obtained directly from the raw
material without any intermediate steps.
Known as steel with the highest possible
degree of purity.
Damascus steel:
named after Damascus, the ancient
centre of the metalworking trade, this
steel is well known for its highly grained
surface. First produced in India around
300 BC. the unique structure was
originally created using steel segregation techniques during cooling (known
as Wootz steel). In modern Damascus
steels. this structure is created by forge
welding and folding steels of different
carbon contents together.
Suminagashi steel:
japanese variation of Damascus steel
which in contrast to european Damascus blades contains a carbon steel core.
this japanese Damascus is often called
Suminagashi (ink drawing) steel as the
pattern is reminding of an ink painting.
HSS (High Speed Steel):
a type of steel which is heat resistant to
approx. 570 C due to a relatively high
content of chromium, molybdenum,
tungsten and vanadium. Mainly used
with machine and turning tool blades.
Tool steel:
alloyed or non-alloyed steel with a
carbon content of at least 0.2 %, a level
which allows the steel to be hardened.

Alloying:
the addition of certain metals (e.g.
chromium. manganese) to change the
characteristics of the base metal.
Hardening:
Heating hardenable steel to above the
transformation point (approx. 780 C
for carbon steels, approx. 1050 C for
rustproof steels, depending on the alloy)
and subsequently quenching them (in
water, oil or air) results in the formation
of a new, finer crystalline structure.
the steel gets harder, more brittle and
more sharpenable because of the finer
structure. the hardness can be tested
using the Rockwell method (pressing a
diamond cone into the surface of the
steel).
Annealing:
after hardening, the steel must be annealed to avoid brittleness. In general,
the steel is heated in a controlled
manner (for a specific time at between
180 and 300 C) to remove the internal
stresses in the structure. In the process,
the steel becomes somewhat less hard,
but gets tougher and less prone to
chipping. It is important to note that
the properties exhibited by an individual
blade do not solely depend on the chemical composition of the steel used. the
blacksmiths skill and the nature of the
hardening process employed also play a
very important role in the quality of the
outcome. Careful forging, for example,
further refines and homogenises the
steels structure. Prolonged heating
during the forging, hardening or annealing process lead to carbon diffusion
that diminishes the hardness and edge
life of the blade. Impurities (e.g. P, S)
have a very detrimental effect on the
blade and cause a dramatic increase in
the brittleness of the edge.

Razor by Thiers Issard
Since 1884, traditional French company thiers Issard in auvergne has
been making exquisite razors for wet shaving. the blades are made
almost exclusively from Carbonsong C135 steel* with an extremely high
carbon content of 1.35 %. Due to this high carbon content and the extreme hardness of approx. 64-65 HRC, they can be ground to a very thin
edge, thus providing the necessary sharpness for a comfortable shave.
For a better grip, the underside of the tang is serrated on all razors.
Leather pouch included.

A RazoR SuPeR GnoMe


Slim, unpretentious razor with a narrow
satin finished 1/2 hollowed blade. Manufactured of historic blanks which were
forged decades ago in Solingen. Delicate
razors of this type are becoming increasingly popular, also among the ladies.

*Carbon-steel is far superior to rustproof steel as far as sharpness is


concerned. The supposed disadvantage of rust susceptibility is offset by
following the care instructions.
Care instructions: after shaving, clean the knife with pure water and dry thoroughly.
If the razor is not used over a long period of time, it should be slightly oiled (e.g.
Camellia oil, no. 705280).

Hanging strops are used to straighten
up razor edges, since they adjust to the
rounding of the blade. the supplied hook
is mounted on the wall and the strop is
hung on it with the attached swivelling
clamp. the swivelling clamp also allows
quick switching of the two sides. the
sanded top of our strops is made of
high-quality vegetable-tanned cowhide
(thickness 3 mm), which is exceptionally
soft. If required, the rear, cotton side
of the strop can be used with so-called
sharpening pastes, and thus serves as
a substitute for sharpening on a fine
honing stone.

During shaving, the ultra-fine edge of the razor bends when it meets a beard hair.
this burr that forms on the razor blade partially straightens up with time (min. 24
hours), but stropping removes it completely. the razor strop works like a burnisher
with a conventional blade that isnt sharpened but cuts only with the fine rised burr.
Hanging strop / paddle strop with ribs
Basically, hanging strops and paddle strops require the blade to be managed in the
same way. the type of strop is more a matter of taste. the fine ribs in the wood of

the paddle strop create an elasticity that feels similar to stropping on a hanging
strop. Both types are available in two widths. on the narrow version, the razor must
be handled differently than on the wide version. on the narrow strop, you must draw
the blade in the form of an elongated x, which seems more difficult for beginners.
Professionals, however, can strop individual parts of the cutting edge with much
more control on a narrow strop. the narrow width also reduces bending in the
transverse direction. on a wide strop, you can draw the blade in parallel to the
edge of the strop, which is much easier to learn for a beginner.

Scissors
Japanese Scissors (Nigiri)

japanese nigiri are scissors in their most archetypal form:


Forged from a single piece of steel, they are exceptionally light and comfortable to hold. Pressure from the
thumb and forefinger produces well-controlled cuts; the spring action of the thinly forged handle causes the
blades to reopen automatically. nigiri are suitable for all precise work with paper and fabric, opening seams,
and pruning houseplants. all nigiri come in elegant gift boxes.

in selected master workshops, handforged from carbon steel using traditional techniques. they can be sharpened on waterstones. even though
carbon steel is not rust free, sharpest
edges are possible while sharpening
is done with ease. We recommend
storing the gardening tools in a dry
place, and oiling them slightly if they
are unused for an extended period
(e.g. with japanese rust-protection
oil, no. 711541). For sharpening, we
recommend japanese waterstones and
DMt diamond stones. More care and
expense is needed when using handforged tools but the joy created while
working with them is every bit worth
the effort.

Baack Spades

Baack Spades has been forging spades from a single piece of the best
carbon steel in the tradition of the old masters since 1878. More than
150 hammer strikes produce a highly compact steel and
thus a spade blade that is extremely break- and wearresistant. over a century of experience results in tools
that enjoy a unique reputation among professionals
from tree nurseries, the garden and landscaping
trade as well as underground engineering.

Max. branch diameter?


Many manufacturers indicate the maximum branch thickness for which a pruner
or lopper is suitable. But often they only
consider the opening of the tool, which
will not keep this promise in practice.
We test all the shears, pruners and
loppers in our range, independently of
the manufacturers specifications, with
respect to the possible branch diameter
and indicate these values as the maximum branch thickness for each product.
We apply criteria such as the function of
the tool, the cut surface as well as the
required effort resulting from the leverage. We test cutting on both fresh and
dead wood and on different wood types.

Lwe Pruners

the invention of the anvil pruner in 1923 turned Lwe into the world market leader in anvil pruners. Both then
and now, all the firms pruners are 100 % made in Germany. the specially developed, non-stick-coated blade
steel guarantees the necessary hardness with maximum toughness, making the blades virtually unbreakable,
even at temperatures below freezing. all parts are available separately and can be easily replaced if necessary.

A LWe 1 oRGInaL anvIL PRuneR


the principle of the anvil pruner,
whereby a cutting blade closes against
a flat surface (anvil), allows better force
transmission, making them effortless
to work with. this sturdy model is the
tried-and-tested orginal from Lwe with
plastic-coated handles and a robust
blade-stopping mechanism.

B LWe 8 anvIL PRuneR,


WItH CuRveD BLaDe
the Lwe 8 combines the advantages
of an anvil pruner with those of a bypass
pruner. a curved blade holds the material
to be cut perfectly in the jaws, while the
anvil principle allows a strong cutting
force. the distance between the handles
can be adjusted via a setscrew to suit
both large and small hands. occasional
adjustment while you work prevents your
hands from tiring and, by shifting the
pressure, increases the service life of the
blade and anvil. this model also features
a slim head shape for constricted spaces,

Types of shears
Pruning shears are basically
divided into two different types:
bypass and anvil shears.

Bypass shears have two cutting


blades that slide past each other.
anvil shears operate on a different
principle, whereby the cutting
blade comes down on a flat
surface, called the anvil.

Bypass shears
advantages:
Precise, clean cut
Ideal for cutting green wood

inwardly curved plastic-coated handles


for smaller hands, and an externally
affixed blade which is easy to replace.

Barnel Pruning Shears

Barnel, a globally renowned manufacturer based in the uS, has been making superlative garden tools since the
1970s. Most Barnel shears have a patented centre oiler, by which oil is applied directly to the blades. the oiler
can be quickly refilled with an applicator can (e.g. no. 718275). Spare parts available.

advantages:
Effective force
transmission
(less effort required)
For cutting dead wood
Drawbacks:
The cut material is slightly
squashed during cutting
The bark may get damaged

Both types can have a curved


or straight blade. the advantage
of a curved blade is the slightly
skewed cut, which requires less
effort when cutting.

Most bypass shears operate on the


principle of the skew cut, the only
exception being trimming shears.
this type of shear needs a slim
blade, which is difficult to achieve
with a curved shape. the parts
of the plants that are cut with
trimming shears are usually quite
thin, so the cutting force is less
important.

1. use the right saw. the larger the set (alternate bending of the
teeth to the right and left) of a saw, the larger the ridges and
scratches on the cut surface. this results in a greater exposed
surface and water can accumulate between the ridges, which may later
cause rotting. Consequently, saws with very slightly set or unset teeth are
ideal for pruning fruit trees (see pictogram fruit tree pruning).

When a branch is cut off a tree, this creates a relatively big wound on the trunk.
the tree tries to close this wound with special wound tissue. the larger the
wound, the rougher the cut surface and the younger the tree, the longer this
overgrowth process takes. In the case of very large wounds, it can take years.
During this time, the part of the cut surface that is not yet overgrown is not
protected against fungi and pests that destroy wood. Fruit trees are
particularly vulnerable.

2. the branch should be cut at the collar. Cutting at the branch


collar means that you should not cut the branch flush with the
trunk but leave the branch collar intact, as the tissue there is
particularly active. However, you should never leave a stub on the
trunk, as this hinders or even prevents wound overgrowth.
3. In particular, dormant pruning in winter makes it
more difficult for the tree to close the cut surfaces
with wound tissue. It is recommended that you apply
special wound sealants such as tree waxes or tars to
the cut surfaces.

Sawing technique for heavy


branches
DICtuM tool handles are free from
toxins (all plastic handles are regulary
tested).

When sawing off thick, heavy branches,


you should first take the pressure off
the branch before you cut it off close
to the trunk. otherwise, in the worst
case, the weight of the branch may
cause the bark on the trunk to tear
during sawing. You can avoid this with
a simple cutting technique:

F jaPaneSe FoLDInG SaW


DeLuxe 240
Handmade:
the details make the difference to industrially-manufactured series products. For
example, the blade of this saw is taperground 0.2 mm, and the teeth sides are
polished to make cutting even easier.
Clearing teeth prevent clogging. Manual
straightening on the aligning anvil by the
master saw-smith himself ensures that
the saw blade runs smoothly.

1. Make a cut with the saw on the underside of the branch about 30 cm
away from the trunk. (Dont cut too
deep, as otherwise the saw may get
stuck in the kerf because of the
weight of the branch.)
2. Make a cut with the saw on the top
of the branch, same distance away
from the trunk. (Its own weight
should cause the branch to break
off in a controlled manner.)
3. now you can make the final cut at
the trunk without pressure from the
branch.

WORKSHOP

SCYtHe anD SICKLe


Content: the comeback of mowing
with a scythe keeps your body and
the environment fit. an increasing
number of hobby gardeners are enjoying that smell of freshly cut grass.
Handling a scythe is a skill that
requires some practice. the course
starts out with peening the blade
using the peening anvil, honing
it on a whetstone, adjusting the snath,
and it ends with mowing practices.
You may bring your own scythe.
It is also possible to purchase highquality scythes and blades during
the course.

Hard clippings - thick edge - abrasive grindstone


a thick edge is more robust and can also withstand woody tree
shoots. nevertheless, the cutting edge is subject to heavier wear
owing to the hard grasses and should therefore be worked on with
an abrasive whetstone (no. 711304, no. 711305, no. 711311).
Soft clippings - thin edge - hard grindstone
For soft cuttings, you need an extremely sharp edge. a thin edge is
easier to sharpen, providing the greatest possible degree of sharpness.
a hard grindstone straightens up the edge, which is often only slightly
bent from working in soft grasses (principle of a sharpening steel).
Since the edge itself is not subject to heavy wear, it only needs to be
sharpened to a limited extent during honing (no. 705582, no. 711312).

easier to sharpen. But peening is quite a


challenge. a well balanced blow with the
hammer, an even feed motion and a precise
positioning of the blade on the anvil are
required. all demand a lot of practise.
this peening anvil solves this problem.
the blade is placed on an adjustable
support plate. a depth stop makes sure
that the blade is exactly positioned on
the curved anvil.

A PeenInG anvIL, WItH StoPPeR


Peening made easy:
Peening makes the cutting edge of scythe
and sickle blades thinner, harder and

another advantage: you can always easily


view the field of work. the anvil is made
of impact-resistant steel, the surface
area is hardened to a depth of 3 cm to
58 - 60 HRC. Because the anvil is not
hardened through the hammer will not
bounce. Suited for all scythe and sickle
blades. the anvil has a horn for beating
it to a wooden block. Includes instruction
sheet and abrasive fabric for cleaning
blade, anvil and hammer. Galvanized.

Which hammer matches which anvil?


If the face of the anvil is rounded, use a hammer with
a straight, slightly curved striking surface. If the face of
the anvil is straight and slightly curved, use a hammer
with a rounded peen. the head weight of the hammer
should lie between 500 and 600 g. the heavier the
hammer, the easier it will be to shape the material. We
recommend you start with a 500 g hammer as beginners
generally lack accuracy.

A jaPaneSe PuzzLe Box


HIMItSu BaKo
Himitsu Bako boxes are certainly among
the most intriguing hand-crafted wooden
objects made in japan. at first glance,
they appear to be nothing more than simple boxes with intricately inlaid surfaces.
try to open them and you will quickly
discover that their intricacy is more than
just cosmetic. the panels must be manipulated in a pre-set series of steps to
release the locking mechanisms hidden
by the mosaic and allow the lid to slide
open. the production of these highly
precise mechanisms is a challenge which
requires decades of experience - the
youngest master Himitsu makers are over
60 years old. Made of solid cedar inlaid
with different types of natural wood.

Inden-Ya

a japanese family-run business has been devoted to the manufacture of


leather products ornamented with urushi lacquer since the 16th century.
Back then, they mainly produced protective leather garments for Samurai
warriors, and helmets. today they make leather products for everyday use.
the softest deer leather is smoke-stained and dyed using a traditional
Indian technique. the decorative pattern is then silkscreened onto it by
hand, using traditional urushi lacquer made from natural tree resin. the
surface has a tangible texture which is completely water-resistant and
has a pleasant leathery smell.

our bamboo products are


manufactured using ancient
vietnamese techniques.
It takes much time and
know-how to make a bamboo
bowl out of a round bamboo
stalk: before bamboo can be
worked with, it has to be
watered for several months.
afterwards the stalks are sawn
in pieces and split into thin
stripes. In several working
steps, every stripe is cut, split
and pressed with a roller. the
pressed stripes are bent round
and put together to make discs.
the discs are beaten to their
final shape using a stone form.
they are dipped in resin and
thereby fixed. When the resin
has dried out, the bowl is being
smoothed over several times
and carefully polished. When
the basic bowl has been dried
properly, it again takes several
steps to treat it with colour and
gloss paint.

Urushi

urushi has been extracted from the asian lacquer tree (Rhus vernicifera) for over 6,000 years.
even today you can find lacquered pieces that date back to 3,500 BC. In some of them,
the surface is virtually intact.
A Set oF uRuSHI BoWLS,
SenSaI SaBI
this bowl set is traditionally used as a
set of tea bowls by japanese couples.
Both bowls are first coated using the Suri
urushi technique so that the wood grain
remains visible on the inside of the bowl
and in those spots of the outside that are
not color-treated later. then the outside
is primed in the Roiro technique with one
of the basic colors (vermillion or black)
and later the final coat is added in the
respective other color. after polishing,
the final coat is removed, bringing out

the layer underneath and resulting in a


surface that is very rich in contrast.
110 x 70 mm
No. 831540
41.18 49.00

Characteristics of Urushi
urushi is waterproof, and resistant to alcohol
and solvents. It is more insensitive than
many of today`s higly developed furniture
varnishes. the coating does not become
brittle or crack with age, and develops a
beautiful patina with use. It is also food-safe
and therefore used in japan for many objects
of daily use.
B
B uRuSHI Set oF BoWL anD SPoon
Spoon and bowl in attractive matching
colours. the red-black colouring is obtained by coating the red-pigment urushi
layer with black varnish, which is then
slightly sanded off again in some areas.
the resulting random pattern makes each
object unique. the grip of the spoons
handle is decorated with a special struc-

turing technique which creates a nonslip, scale-like surface. this is achieved


by applying fabric to the raw material
and then colouring it with the technique
described before.

the fictious story of thomas, a young

a small carpenters workshop. the
book tells about how the apprentice
implements three small projects and thus it does not
only give insights into the working life of the early 19th
century, but it also explains detailed carpenter techniques and working methods of this time. Chris Schwarz

whereby consumer shall be any natural person entering into a legal transaction for a purpose
that can be attributed neither to a commercial nor a self-employed activity.
Revocation Policy for the Delivery of Goods
Right of Revocation
the Client shall be entitled to revoke the concluded contract within a period of one month
without stating reasons. the revocation period of one month commences upon the day when
either the Client or a third party, who has been personally named by the Client and who is not
the carrier, has taken ownership of the goods. If the Client has ordered several goods within
one common order, and the goods are delivered separately, the revocation period of one month
commences upon the day when either the Client or a third party, who has been personally
named by the Client and who is not the carrier, has taken ownership of the last delivered item.
If the Client has ordered an item which is delivered in several partial shipments or pieces, the
revocation period of one month commences upon the day when either the Client or a third party,
who has been personally named by the Client and who is not the carrier, has taken ownership of
the last partial shipment or the last delivered piece. If the Client has ordered goods which shall
be delivered regularly over a specified period, the revocation period of one month commences
upon the day when either the Client or a third party, who has been personally named by the
Client and who is not the carrier, has taken ownership of the first delivered item.
the timely dispatch of the revocation or the goods shall be deemed sufficient for compliance
with the revocation term. the revocation shall be directed at:
DICTUM GmbH, Donaustr. 51, 94526 Metten, Germany
(Phone: +49-(0)991-9109-902, fax: +49-(0)991-9109-802, email: info@dictum.com)
Consequences of Revocation
If the Client revokes the contract, he shall be reimbursed all payments including the shipping
costs (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from any mode of shipment other
than the offered, least expensive mode of standard shipment chosen by the Client) without
undue delay and in any event not later than a fortnight after receipt of the revocation notice.
the reimbursement shall be effected using the same payment method as was used for the
initial transaction, unless other terms have explicitly been stipulated; the Client will not incur
any fees as a result of such reimbursement. the Seller may withhold reimbursement until he
has received the goods back or until the Client has supplied evidence of having sent back the
goods, whichever is the earliest.
the Client shall send back the goods or hand them over without undue delay and in any event
not later than a fortnight from the day when the Client has communicated the revocation of the
concluded contract. the deadline is met if the Client sends back the goods before the period of
14 days has expired. the Client has to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. notwithstanding the foregoing provision, the Seller shall bear the costs of returning goods which are consignable by parcel post, if the Client uses the prepaid return shipping label enclosed to return
the goods. If the goods cannot be shipped as a parcel, the returning costs shall be estimated
corresponding to and not exceeding the initial shipping costs. If the goods cannot be shipped
as a parcel, the Seller shall furthermore organize the collection of the goods from the Clients
premises if requested by the Client. If the Client exercises this option, the returning costs borne
by the Client shall correspond to the initially quoted shipping costs.
the Client is only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other
than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
End of Revocation Policy

not apply for distance contracts for the delivery of audio or video recordings or of software if the
delivered data medium has been unsealed by the Client.
