Kanenori Nata Single-Bevel Carbon Steel Japanese Axe 180mm C-21
Product Description
A versatile Japanese nata hatchet for pruning, carving, and board prep, crafted under the Koten brand. The hand-forged laminated blade delivers fast, clean “cut and shave” performance while standing up to demanding outdoor and garden tasks. Size: blade 180 mm (7.1 in), handle 180 mm (7.1 in), overall 360 mm (14.2 in). Weight: 595 g (approx. 1.31 lb).
The blade pairs high-carbon tool steel with soft iron (approx. 1/3 steel, 2/3 iron) for easy sharpening, excellent wear resistance, and durable toughness from forging. Features a matte finish, a brass guard and ferrule for added safety, and a slip-resistant oak handle with traditional tannin dye. Includes a belt-ready sheath for secure carry.
Use guidance: single-bevel excels at precise cutting and shaving; double-bevel offers added strength for splitting and heavier pruning. Avoid splitting firewood with a single-bevel edge. Ideal for forestry, gardening, and outdoor use where a long-lasting, easily maintained edge is essential.
