KAKURI Wood Marking Gauge Woodworking Tool 4.75" / 120mm, Japanese Wood Scribe Tool KEBIKI Carpentry Wood Scriber, Made in JAPAN

Easy to use and works very well. It not only marks well but I have also used it to cut very thin wood to make my own Kumiko strips.

Beautiful and well made

This marking gauge creates sharp lines and is ergonomics to hold. It has a mechanism to store the blade in a recess when not using so it's safe. Very good product.

Ordered 3.5'Worth for the money, but not precise. Scale shows 9mm and mark measured was 10mm. As well in two of the dimensions right angle have 2-3 degree offset. Still is very useful for my hand work projects.

sharp, well made, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

this is one of the best items I bought from amazon

I continue to be shocked at the level of comfort and accuracy from the seemingly "basic" Japanese woodworking tools. This thing is way more stable and sturdy than my wheel marking gauge. Feels great in the hand, very natural and intuitive. Absolutely love this thing.

This is a nice tool, I use these much more often than I expected. It turns out to be terrific for cutting consistent strips of corrugated cardboard I use for models and prototypes, and also for splitting thin strips of wood along the grain, which is one of the original uses for these. You make repeated cuts on both sides, using the same reference edge, and then break the wood at the cut line. The resulting edge needs some planing to clean it up, but it's very effective on soft wood up to maybe 1/4" thickness.Probably more common is to use this as a marking gauge, or more precisely a "cutting gauge" since it leaves a knife line rather than a v-shaped pin line. The rapid adjustment of this one is very handy. The other two I have use a wedge in a tapered mortise for locking the arm, and that can be a little finicky.This one is on the short side at 90mm. The other two I have (also bought here on Amazon) are 120mm long and are easier to register when the arm is extended out further.This is an inexpensive model, maybe an affordable DIY version in Japan, where it is made. But it is very serviceable and its somewhat loose tolerances are the bar/body fit do not seem to affect its repeatability.I'm glad to have it and use it frequently.

他社と比較はできないけど、あると便利

値段的にはこのくらいだよねって感じです。目盛りが付いててもズレてて目盛りはあてにならなかった。耐久性は買ってそれ程使っていないので想像のレベルになりますが現物を見た感じでは☆３くらいが妥当？ってとこですね

コスパ高いです！

慣れもあるのでしょうが当てている感じが分かりにくく、つい力が入ってしまい毛引線が深くなってしまいます。作りはしっかりとしており、刃が収納出来る点や目盛を止めるネジがしっかりしている点は気に入っています。

経年変化を含め収縮の少ない手間暇掛かる竹材使用感心しました。
