The Mini Ebony Planes are designed in Japan and was originally also produced there, but due to the makers finding it difficult to source the ebony timber in Japan, production was moved to a company in Hong Kong which have been making traditional Chinese tools for over 35 years. Once manufactured, the planes return to Japan for quality control testing and packaging.

This is one of the only products JTA sell that is not made in Japan. But we are confident that these mini planes are of premium quality.

Beautiful. Just Beautiful.

You’ll find examples of these mini planes all over the internet. But My Word, if you can, just get these. They are a stunning example of the tools.
I use these to shave off small and EXACT amounts when tuning double bass tables (fronts), braces and guitar or gamba tables.
They arrive in their own sturdy containers with a strip of oiled paper. Finish is fantastic, blades are well honed and corners, if included are sharp.
I am so pleased that I healed out and got these. They are not toys.
Beautiful.
