This Japanese Genno Masayuki hammer is a handcrafted piece made by the blacksmith Masayuki Baba, known for his traditional hammers used in Japanese woodworking.

The head is made with a traditional technique called laminated steel, where a layer of hard steel is added to the ends to improve impact resistance.

This technique was historically used when steel was scarce and today allows for a durable hammer with excellent striking performance.

With a weight of 225 g, this hammer offers good balance for precise woodworking and cabinet-making tasks.

It comes in a wooden box, suitable for storing and protecting the tool.

The Japanese genno is a hammer used by carpenters and joiners for wood joinery and precision work.
Its compact head allows for controlled striking while maintaining excellent power.
