An uncomplicated plane

This Small Router Plane is a versatile yet uncomplicated tool. The minimalistic design makes it easy to disassemble for sharpening and maintenance and reassemble for work. The knurled fixing knobs are very accessible with a very smooth action. The blades depth of cut is adjusted by simply loosening the fixing knobs and sliding the blade into the required position.

50-degree straight blade

This router plane is different, unlike many other router planes, the blade is made from a straight square section of HSS steel set bevel-down in the plane at 50 degrees. The blade bevel is only present to relieve the cut, this provides you with a very effective angle of attack suitable for all types of trenching work, and a router plane that is extremely easy to sharpen.

Easy to sharpen

Because the blades are made from a single piece of straight steel, the blades are very easy to sharpen. Simply remove the blade from the plane body, sharpen like you would a mortise chisel and then reset. No special jigs or equipment required!

M2 High Speed Steel blades

The M2 HSS (High Speed Steel) blade has high abrasion resistance which means it will hold a sharp edge much longer than many other steels. This also means that it may take a little longer to bring up an edge, very similar to A2 steel, but holds the edge longer than O1 steel.
