I bought two kannas from Japan (2000 yen / 5000 yen) and a set of chisels (3000 yen). Currently, im using 1K, 3K and 5K grit sandpaper glued to a tile, but im thinking about buying "proper" sharpening stones. Any suggestions for something under 90$AUD?
Both these kannas are great for planing face grain, but if I want to smooth something, the whole blade doesn't come in contact with the wood. The left kanna has a 50mm blade (2inch) but only takes 10-15mm shavings (0.5inch) and the right kanna is 35mm (1.5inch) but only takes 5-10mm (0.25inch). I've tried to flatten the sole, but it's starting to loosen.
Any suggestions?
I bought my higonokami from Japan but have been recently noticing it can only cut thin shavings, especially Australian Hardwoods. Also, if i do try to carve hardwoods, the blade is easily chipped.
Can I get any recommendations on a knife, preferably from Japan, that won't chip as easily and a little bigger, around 100mm (4 inch) or more if possible, and able to cut "thicker" shavings. Btw I dont mind if it's fixed or folding, just nothing that's spring-loaded like "typical" pocket knives.
Thanks!

I currently have the cmf buds pro 2, but i lost the right earbud. Since cmf can't sell singular earbuds and i have an android, I've been thinking of getting samsung buds. Any suggestions for affordable samsung buds that have good sound quality, along with anc and transparency, that perform well with high and low frequency surroundings.
