Huh…. So do most woodworking tools from Asia cut on the pull stroke? I’m thinking about the saws from Japan that are super accurate because of this design.
"... the only tools a dwarf needed were his axe and some means of making fire. That'd eventually get him a forge, and with that he could make simple tools, and with those he could make complex tools, and with complex tools a dwarf could more or less make anything."
Wait 'til you look into hobby machining. Making your own tools is a huge part of the hobby. Hobby woodworking and metal working media is all 25% making tools and jigs, 50% shop organization projects and 25% actual entry level projects.
Yup. First big wood project I did was a workbench so I could make shelves. Hell, I think all I've ever printed on my 3d printer is parts fory 3d printer
"The Japanese plane or kanna (鉋) is a plane pulled towards the user rather than pushed in the manner of western style planes. [...]" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_plane
Japanese handsaws work in the same manner, far greater control when pulling vs. pushing. A must have for apartment/condo dwellers as they are easily stored and make little noise.
They're robust and built for bulk work. Pull saws are more precise and for those moments where precision over speed is warranted. Neither one is better than the other. They can both have their place
It's important to use the correct saw for the task also, i.e., for crosscut vs ripping. Or for more precise work, something with more or less teeth, slimmer blades, etc. Then there is preference and technique. That said, I use both western and Japanese styles for different tasks

I have some Kaneshin bonsai tools. They are simple in design, very strong, and will cut me up in a heartbeat if I don't pay attention. I love them.

You can use this wood to make a chest.
Oh great, then I'll have a place to store all this wood for chest-making.

I mean, that's neat and all, but you know that the toilet paper shortage ended a while ago?

I see it’s “paper thin” but what about splinters?
randomwalrus
Splinter free toilet paper was not invented until the 1930s. As history repeats itself, about a decade away for that innovation to reemerge.
TheDouche
Probably gonna happen again soon.

Yeah toilet paper and electricity are Canada's biggest exports to the US.

So he uses his wood working tools to make more wood working tools?

why woodent he?
TsubakiTragic
yes... back in history it was steel that Japan could not produce, so if you got hold of some you made the best use of it.

Half of the tools in my belt I made myself or modified from another tool. It's harder to be a craftsman when you're not resourceful.

Western style hand planes are just too noisy

And western style handsaws are just stupid, they bend every time I try to cut!
