We will be going to Japan for a week in several weeks. So, naturally I would like to use this as an opportunity to do some tool shopping. We will e there for about a week, so I will have 3-4 hours to dedicate to tools. Other than some Japanese handsaws (from Lee Valley) I have never had or used Japanese chisels, planes or other tools. I am not looking for artisan blacksmiths that make chisels with a 2 year waiting time. I am more interested in tools that are the equivalent of Veritas, Lie Nielsen, etc or perhaps slightly lower that I can buy from a store.

So, what are some good stores I can go in (or around) Tokyo and Kyoto?
