Making a Handle for Japanese Hammer, Gennou | Hand Tools
I'm finally back!
I made a handle for a Gennou (Japanese hammer) that I bought in Japan. This video includes the basics of the handle setup for Gennou or the bottom line is, you can see how I was messing around to set it up if that helps:)
Thank you!
