Die Werkzeuge des japanischen Schreiners

Japanese tools have achieved cult status among woodworkers. The fascination with a saw that cuts on the pull stroke rather than the push stroke is hard to resist. Once an exotic insider tip, these tools are now spreading rapidly. These tools, which are often completely different in design, are extraordinarily captivating. However, using them requires some guidance. Odate's description is therefore an indispensable companion for anyone interested in this world. The author not only explains how to use the tools but also delves into the philosophical background that is fundamental to understanding traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
