Mentori-Kanna is used for sharving the edge off finished products.
One of the reasons why it is necessary to “sharving the edge” is for safety. Drop the edge as thin as a thread.
And another reason is to improve the design. For that purpose, the edge is sharpened greatly.
Mentori-Kanna can be adjusted with screws to increase the distance between the bases. If you widen the bases, the Kanna blade will go deeper and you can take a wide surface.
At Suikoushya, we share traditional Japanese woodworking techniques and skills. Since it is a small group system, we will provide guidance tailored to each individual’s skills, from beginners to woodworking professionals. Please join us!
I look forward to sharing fine woodworking with you.
