The Daruma Genno Touroku is a handcrafted Japanese hammer intended for traditional carpentry and precision woodworking.

A genno is the traditional Japanese hammer used by carpenters and joiners. It is designed to provide a precise, balanced, and controlled strike, particularly for wood joinery, chiseling, and fine work.

The term Daruma refers to the specific shape of the hammer head : compact, rounded, and perfectly balanced. This shape ensures excellent stability upon impact and reduces fatigue during prolonged use.

This model is made by Touroku , a craftsman trained by a renowned Japanese master blacksmith . He respects traditional forging methods, with particular attention paid to the balance and quality of the steel.

The smoked finish (called iburi finish in Japan) gives the head a dark and elegant patina. This finish also enhances the steel's natural resistance to oxidation, while maintaining an authentic and timeless look.

Each hammer is entirely handmade . Slight differences may exist between pieces, which is a guarantee of handcrafted production and not a defect.
