Book Reviews of Japanese Woodworking Tools: Their Tradition, Spirit, and Use

Book Review: This book covers everything about Japanese tools.
Summary: 5 Stars

This book starts with the workshop description and layout. Toshio Odate uses his own unique experiences as a craftsman to show how to use and care for the tools. There are chapters on saws, chisels, marking tools, and handplanes. Japanese tools are much different than western style tools in their appearance, use, and care. All of these are covered in this excellent book.
