Q: What can I use this skew block plane for?

It excels at trimming rabbets, working end grain and making final jointing cuts on boards, and it can also be used in all the ways you would use a regular block plane.

Q: Does this plane reduce tear-out on cross-grain cuts?

Yes. A scoring blade sits ahead of the main blade to reduce tear-out when working across the grain, and it can be withdrawn when you're planing with the grain instead.

Q: Is this plane available for both left- and right-handed use?

Yes, it is offered in both right-hand and left-hand versions, and can be purchased as a pair so you can accommodate any grain direction.

Machined and surface ground 6-3/8" by 1-3/4" ductile cast iron body has 12° bed angle and movable toe fully enclosed by body casting
Blade skewed at 15° angle makes cutting easier; helps pull fence tight against work; blade sits flush with side of body
Norris-style adjuster combines feed and lateral positioning for easy, precise blade setting; set screws on either side of blade prevent shifting in use
Scoring spur ahead of blade reduces tear-out on cross-grain work; adjustable for depth and projection and can be recessed when working with grain
Hardware locking knob sets toe to control mouth opening; unobtrusive set screw in throat allows repeatable mouth positioning and prevents contact between blade and toe
Sliding collet held by large brass locking knob allows adjustment of 3-1/2" wide, 5/16" thick hardwood fence
Tapped fence base enables substitution of user-made fence extension
Available in left- and right-hand models
