Ohuchi (Ouchi) Hiramachi Oire Nomi / Bench Chisel

 
Hiramachi Oire Nomi is even thinner than Kinari and has a flat shaft for derailed work (getting into tight spaces) like small dovetails.
 
Which style of bench chisels would be suitable for you depends on what type of work you do the most. We would usually recommend Mentori or Kakuuchi chisels for general purposes. Otherwise, please contact us for help with determining which chisels would work best for you.
