High-quality Japanese plane type Hira Kanna 平 鉋 – for general carpentry work. Kanna planes have a very simple construction. The blade is made of high-quality Japanese laminated two-layer steel and needs to be fitted into the plane body by tapping with a hammer before the first use, which also allows you to set the size of the shaving being removed. If you want to thin the shaving, just hit the body of the plane. The thickness of the shaving and the smoothness of the surface depend on the personal adjustment of the blade.
Kanna 鉋 – is the name for a Japanese plane. This type of planes differs from Western ones in several fundamental respects. The first thing you will notice is their elegant simplicity: most of these planes have rectangular bodies made of Japanese oak. The blades are wedged in place by a chip breaker instead of mechanical devices, and the blade is adjusted by tapping on the body or the blade itself. The blade is made of high-quality Japanese laminated two-layer steel. Western carpenters consider Japanese planes to be "reversed," because they are pulled rather than pushed. Experienced users say that this technique achieves much better control over the plane, but it takes a bit of practice to get used to this technique.
