Block Planes
Manufactured to British Standards, Rutlands® hand planes are recommended by discerning cabinetmakers and carpentry instructors for their superb construction, finish and performance. Using world leading manufacturing techniques, each precision ground plane represents a serious alternative to the premium brands produced in North America. The renowned design has a screw mechanism that easily allows the blade to be varied in depth relative to the sole to change the depth of cut.

Standard Angle Block Plane
A block plane is small enough to be used in one hand and is designed for cutting end grain and making trimming or fine adjustment cuts. This block plane has a modified body casting to make it more responsive in use and a finer pitch blade adjustment thread for improved blade setting accuracy. An adjustable nosepiece allows the mouth to be opened or closed to accommodate coarse or ultra-fine shavings, this nosepiece is secured in place with a knurled brass knob. A 35mm wide, 25° bevelled blade is seated at 20° within the plane, giving an effective angle of 45° for general purpose work. The plane has an overall length of 165mm and weighs 850g.

Materials & Manufacturing
The plane body features heavy, stress relieved ductile iron castings which are precision machined to ensure the soles are flat and square to the sides. The plane is fitted with a T10 high carbon steel tool blade which can take a keen edge, and that has been hardened to RC60-64 for maximum edge retention. The blade is held in position by a large bronze cap iron with an integrated palm rest which allows the plane to nestle snugly in the hand. ©

Great product, even better customer service

Plane arrived with one other, its well made and has a really nice weight to it. Had a slight defect, contacted Rutlands and its all been resolved in less than 24 hours. Really great customer service.

Really looking forward to adding this to my tool list, will be buying more products in the future.

quality high

plane cut straight out of the box, all adjustments work smoothly. The finish is great. The only surprise (pleasant)was the quarter turn backlash between advancing and retracting the blade. My Lie Neilsen 102 block plane is about a third of a turn! 57 quid inc shipping bargain😊

9.5 BLOCK PLANE

A superb item. It did not take long to set it up to be razor sharp and very accurate. Highly recommended.

All good things come in small Packages.

As all Tools it come with Positive & negative this one comes with more Positive than Negative, the body and the frog are mould as one casting of Cast Iron making chunky but well balanced,the sole and sides are finally ground not polished which one may what to do before using too cut down on friction also the surface of the frog making these Negative, the mouth is adjusted by the front part of the sole moving forward and back adjusted by a lever fix beneath the front handle, it's made of brass with a dish like indent on top to rest the thumb in it and figures comfortably around the handle, the fog has a large brass screwed into it which adjusters the blade in&out of the mouth of the plane and is well machined to operate with finger tips, the Cape Iron that retains the blade on the fog is well made in a oval shape at the top end of the Cape Iron fitting snuggle into the parm of the hand making it very comfortable for perlong use, the only other Negative thing is, there is no lever for lateral adjustment, but overall a well made Block Plane.
