To me, the best tools are all those hand tools, the chisels, planes, hand saws. Nothing brings one closer to any woodworking project than an actual hand tool. Don't be embarrassed about the age of your tools, they've served you well and continue to serve you today. You take care of your tools, they'll take care of you. Great video, cheers :)

I'm a tile setter by trade and it's SO true that the trades are becoming more about the tools than the craft itself. Too many people don't have the basic skills or are actual craftsman. Too many DIY hacks out there doing it wrong, although it does keeps me busy having to go and rip out their work and install it correctly after it starts to fall apart. Anyway, another great video as always and never ever worry about using older tools, be proud that you can still use them my friend. Shalom

There is NO substitute for quality tools that are well maintained. Age of a tool is no embarrassment it's how well it works & if it is still 'fit for purpose' keep using it. In general terms the older tools are frequently made from better quality steel etc. Thanks for sharing all your work tools Shoyan, I am in awe of the quality of your tools & the way they are maintained, ALL CREDIT TO YOU.

But I have learned a lot watching Shoyan's videos. Thank you for that, sir! I wish I could one day come there and be your student and watch you work :D Although, I guess the building style and humidity, temperature etc. are quite different in Japan than here in Finland so it would be impossible to build things like that in Finland...

@@richardwaller9922 so how is this fault of the new tools? You decide what you use, you decide if you buy from craftsman who uses traditional tools, from craftsman, who uses power tools or from a factory, where products are made all by machines. Modern tools give you options, they do not force you to use them or buy products made by them. Youre only pathetic person, who is not willing to accept responsibility for their decisions. "Oh, I like how it looks, when something is being made by hand tools, everything should be made by hand tools. What? Youre asking why I do not buy those expensive hand made items, and why I use power tools for the things I do? Well, its not me being a hypocrite, its the modern tools being around, they should NOT be there!! Damn, how much I hate those power tools!!!!" P.S. You think that I am abusive for calling you out on your bullshit and stating that youre pathetic? You really have no idea what abuse is, sweetheart.
