Master Craftsman "Koten" is a brand created by skilled craftsmen with great care one by one as the highest quality cutlery for professional use, with pruning scissors and hatchets as the main items. In pursuit of functionality, sharpness is achieved by forging high-purity steel with flint forging.

Difference between single-edged and double-edged hatchets

The "single edge" has a thin edge and is sharp, making it suitable for "cutting" and "shaving" operations.

"Double-edged" has a thick cutting edge and is durable, making it suitable for work such as "chopping firewood" and "pruning".

*If a single blade is used for chopping firewood, the blade is likely to be chipped and the firewood will not be split cleanly. Also, when used for pruning, it bites into the trunk and damages the tree.

It is mainly used as a tool for splitting, and is considered a small ax or wood splitter.
