The Mame Kanna is a compact and extremely precise Japanese palm plane. This model, equipped with a 42 mm blade and manufactured by M-Otsugi , is the essential tool for finishing work, chamfering, or fitting small pieces of wood. Its small size ("Mame" means bean) allows for a direct grip and great sensitivity, offering a level of control that standard planes cannot provide.
Designed to achieve a "mirror" cut quality, it allows you to reach such a level of finish that sanding becomes superfluous, thus preserving the natural shine of the wood fibers.
Unlike European planes, Japanese planes are pulled instead of pushed. With this tool, you can discover Japanese tools. For cabinetmakers, luthiers, sculptors, carpenters, or simply DIY enthusiasts.
