***The wood Dai is NEW!! and"Tsutsumi" style.
The oblique surface for inserting blade was applied epoxy resin to fit the surface with blade and to protect the Dai from drying out.
Surface of the Dai-sole is tuned in two-touch point.
The Dai-sole has some shallow scratches, it might be scratched by chisel, I think. The water content of the new dai is higher than the old one, so the weight is heavier, and has more tenacity.

Inmy video, I performed planing a SPF wood timber using each Kannas. Asa result of fine tuning of Dai-sole and sharpening the bladeedges, wood shavings leaped out from Kanna were very thin like a silkfabric.

Whenyou buy a used Kanna you have to set up it to planning in smoothly byyourself. Not only sharpening the blade-edge, but also reshape theblade, also sharpening the chip-breaker blade (counter-blade) andtune the sole of wood bottom “Dai”. It took a few days to havethese tuning.

Ifyou have Kanna for the first time you might be confused because ofmany things to do. (See the below website)

Nowyou have a chance to get ready-to-use. As soon an the Kanna arrives,you can use it but you should re-sharpen the blade from time to timeto maintain its sharpness.

Maintenance

Ialways use the whetstone #1,000 grit for mid and #6,000 grit forfinal sharpening the blade-edge (See the Amazon-site). #10,000 grit or more fine whetstone would be better.
