Description

This fantastic puzzle from 2008 is a classic work by Karakuri founder Akio Kamei. True to his style, it showcases exquisite craftsmanship, an inventive concept, and a solution that rings true to the puzzle’s whimsical form. All original packaging included.

Size: 140 x 53 x 70 mm

Material: Karin, Oak

Asymmetric Cube -5- - Hideaki Kawashima

For those familiar with Kawashima’s Bars Box puzzles, Asymmetric Cube -5- is more than just another in the series. Yes, it has the intricate multi-step solution and precision wood craftsmanship that you expect from a Bars Box puzzle, but what makes this one stand out from the rest is alluded to in the product description: “This work starts with the design of the surface but there are mechanisms that betray your expectations.” I won’t say more lest it be too spoilery. The puzzle is ...
