My woodworking friends in Japan collected them for me. Compared to European tools Japanese tools are very expensive but they are hand forged and very good.
They are for carpentry work, particularly squaring beams. If you look at my other vids you will see on called hewing the Japanese way showing how they are used.
Those axe are quite awesome. My grandfather was a lumberjack in Japan pre WWII, wish I had one of his axes.
