These beautiful mortice gauges are designed to cut two repeatable parallel marking lines.

Made of beautiful sections of Japanese white oak, they use two blades that slide over each other and are secured with a nut on top of the tool.

As long as corresponding reference faces are used, a set of mortices of matching widths can be marked out quickly and identically using this ingenious tool.

My favourite gauge

I bought my first gauge thirty years ago at a famous store in Seattle called Hardwicks. It was very inexpensive and I thought give it a try. It is now my favourite gauge by far because it's very comfortable in the hand, easy to adjust, cuts a perfect gauge line for your blade to follow and the steel is incredibly hard. I have only sharpened it twice. I do use western gauges to, depending on the job and I have two of this type. You often need to set a few gauges to mark out joints accurately. I really need a third. I prefer the really small one because ninety percent of the time it's all you need.
They are impossible to break and mark much better than a pin gauge. It's a deceptively simple looking tool that looks primitive but it works brilliantly. Get one.
