  • These are quite a bit beefier than your garden type carving gouge.

    こんにちは😃
    This type is SOTO MARU NOMI. another type is UCHI MARU NOMI. URADASHI is important for both. You can get more KIRE AJI if you do URADASHI.

    I'm a power tools guy slowly moving into hand tools thanks to channel like yours. I appreciate your content.

      Thank you for watching. Power tools are really fast and efficient so don't give them up completely.

    Looks like you found a gold mine when you found those tools! Congrats on a great score! They shined up very nice and the edge was really nice. Enjoy them and I would love to see a nice box to put them in too.

    • @Lemongrasspicker

      Thank you ma'am. I think a simple little box will be on the way relatively soon.

    Lovely chisels! You got a great finish on that and I very much enjoyed your reaction to it being used on the Ash haha.

    • @Lemongrasspicker

      Haha! Thank you sir. I wasn't expecting it to be that clean of a cut honestly.

    Pretty sweet chisel!! Can't wait to see you do a project with them.

    Like the scrub plane of chisels. I want some now!

    • @Lemongrasspicker

      That's a cool way to look at it. They are inspiring in a different way than the regular square ended ones.

    Very nice, can't wait to see what you make with those bad boys.

    Nice that you left that patina. Looks like a great tool. I was wondering if giving the iron a little soak in some white vinegar would remove most of the active rust without taking off the patina?

    • @Lemongrasspicker
      @Lemongrasspicker  6 років тому

      Vinegar would work. It's not terribly rusted and I don't mind some slight pitting. On the others I'll likely do that. I really like the patina though and I hate to mess with it sometimes. Feel like I'm "undoing" history.

    HandToolRestoration uses EvapoRust for all of his stuff. It should neutralize and remove the rust chemically without needing to affect the steel physically.

    • @Aubreykun

      I use evaporust and it isn't quite so simple. It removes the rust but it leaves a black carbon coating which begins as a sticky hand-staining mess but hardens over time as it dries. I personally like the carbon coating, it's a somewhat grippy, chalky texture once dried, but without clearing off the carbon you won't be able to see exactly how pitted whatever you cleaned up is. I've seen good results online from using dilluted citric acid.

    Where do you get your used chisels from like the ones you showed in the video? eBay? .??

    • @Lemongrasspicker
      @Lemongrasspicker  6 років тому +1

      These I actually got from a friend. He runs a little Japanese chisel shop in the UK called "The Cornish Little Nomi Shop" look it up, he's a nice guy.

    Can you tell me where I can find some good sharping stones that don't cost a arm and a leg for a beginner?

    • @Lemongrasspicker
      @Lemongrasspicker  6 років тому +1

      Can you define what your price point is for an arm or a leg? Let me know and I'll make some suggestions

    • @MisterVikter
      @MisterVikter 6 років тому +1

      definitely cheaper than a kidney. Jokes aside, yes, a rough indication of $ would help. :)

    • @chelleu333
      @chelleu333 6 років тому

      Lemongrasspicker. As a beginner I can’t even spend a hundred right now. So anything on the cheaper end of the spectrum. Thank you!

    • @Lemongrasspicker
      @Lemongrasspicker  6 років тому

      Check out the Shapton 1000 grit stone. It's not super fine but it's also not super rough. Get that and a decent diamond stone to keep it flat and you'll be ok for a while. The King two sided waterstones are also good. Whatever waterstone you get you need to get a diamond stone to keep it flat so it can work to it's best. If you get a two sided stone go for at least a 1k with a finish at either 4k or 6k. Hope that helps.

      Lemongrasspicker. Thank you so much!! It definitely gives me a starting point. Thanks again.

    ‘Maru’ means circle, circular or round. Great videos, thank you.

    A wise man once told me "He who dies with the most tools wins" (well, that was on his coffee mug...)
    So these are "supposed" to be used for larger carpentry then? I've been puzzled by what work created a demand for these vs standard Japanese gouges.
    Nice polish up!

    • @Lemongrasspicker
      @Lemongrasspicker  6 років тому

      Haha! I'd like a coffee mug like that.
      These were probably in the kit of a Sukiya-daiku. They are the carpenters who build traditional homes and teahouses. From what little I know they try to make use of rougher (rustic) timber and materials and this often includes round logs as opposed to perfectly squared pieces.

    • @Lemongrasspicker
      @Lemongrasspicker  6 років тому

      Forgot to add. In-cannel gouges like this will not "undercut" an edge if you're cutting joinery. With carving you can deal with this but if you're cutting a flat but curved surface you absolutely do not want to undercut, you can ruin your work very quickly by doing that.

    not really the good way to sharpen on that 1000grit stone because tapping it down too hard may brake the stone. but who I am to judge. God Bless

    • @Lemongrasspicker
      @Lemongrasspicker  6 років тому

      I'm not sure I know what you're referencing? tapping the stone?

    • @salvadorelmercabotageiii9148

      +Lemongrasspicker never mind it's just my opinion don't mind it.

    • @Lemongrasspicker

      You can disagree and still have a conversation about things. I just didn't know what specifically you were referring to in the video.

    • @imortaldeadead

      If you rewatch your video, it sounds like you’re tapping your last stone as you’re sharpening your chisel

      theduck Probably from my tools I have hanging on my little table. Either that or my table is getting rickety.
