The Katana hammer and more.
The Japanese blacksmith's hammer has a number of features that are of great interest to all blacksmiths.
The emblematic forge hammer for making Japanese katanas, it is used for the traditional forging of sword blades, but also knife blades and all types of objects made using the traditional hot forge.
A powerful technical feature.
At first glance, the shape of the Japanese blacksmith's hammer is intriguing, with its purlin and eccentric eye for the handle.
However, this shape is not due to chance, but to an indisputable technical advantage ingeniously exploited by Japanese smiths.
This offset increases the striking mass, amplifying the impact of the hammer on the anvil with the same movement of the arm and the same striking power as with a conventional hammer.
An ingenious technical feature.
This Japanese blacksmith's hammer has undergone a double heat treatment of the selective hardening type.
While the core of the bit is relatively soft, the outer shell is extremely hard.
Once again, nothing is left to chance.
This selective hardening system means that the soft core absorbs the recoil produced by the impact of the hammer on the anvil.
This ingenious feature limits effort by optimising the striking movement.
A sturdy handle made from black locust wood.
This hammer has a robust handle made from black locust (or false acacia) wood.
This dense, straight-grained wood is renowned for its resistance and rot-proof qualities, even when used outdoors and in damp environments.
