Description
Description
The Verum Low Angle Block Plane excels at one-handed end-grain planing and trimming with the grain for a flawless finish — a must-have for any woodworker’s toolkit. Its weight, balance, and short sole make it agile and versatile, equally at home on chamfers, flush-trimming joints, smoothing, or taming difficult timbers.
Designed with Peter Sefton
Each Verum plane is created in collaboration with Wood Workers Workshop’s owner, Peter Sefton — a master craftsman and woodworking educator. His hands-on experience has influenced every design choice, from the bedding angle and blade geometry to the ergonomics of the cap and body. The result is a block plane that feels like a natural extension of your hand, offering control and accuracy in every stroke.
Ergonomics & Comfort
Compact & Balanced
The short sole and 790g weight make the plane agile yet stable, sitting comfortably in the palm for extended one-handed use.
Polished Bronze Cap
The bronze cap, combined with side dimples for thumb and finger placement, provides a secure and tactile grip for confident control.
Blade Control & Adjustment
Low Angle Versatility
The 12° bedding angle and 25° sharpened blade combine for a 37° effective ultra-low cutting angle — perfect for end grain. Additional 25° blades available for sharpening at York (50°) and Cabinet (62°) pitches, for working difficult or figured timbers.
Fine Adjustable Mouth
Allows precise control of shaving thickness, from fine finishing cuts to heavier stock removal.
