Mizuno Seisakusho

Mizuno Seisakusho was founded in Sanjo, Niigata, by Yoshio Mizuno in 1937. They originally made a replacement blade for a wooden plane (kanna) and other tools for woodworking and outdoor. During that time, axes were one of the most popular tools for working in the forest and on the farm. Nowadays, axes are still widely used in many outdoor activities, such as chopping wood logs and kindling. We are proud to carry this axe that is still hand-forged with warikomi construction.
