Best Block Plane
Stanley Sweetheart No. 60-1/2 Low Angle Block Plane
Stanley
One-hand block plane is the tool woodworkers reach for most often -- chamfering, trimming, fitting joints
- Low angle block plane
- One-piece cast base and frog
- A2 steel iron
- Adjustable throat
Pros
- One-hand block plane is the tool woodworkers reach for most often -- chamfering, trimming, fitting joints
- Low angle bed handles end gra in cleanly, which a standard bench plane struggles with
- A2 steel iron holds an edge through repeated small trimming cuts
- Small size makes it easy to carry and keep with in reach at the bench
Cons
- Too small for flattening or smoothing a full board face
- Not a substitute for a No. 5 bench plane in a beginner kit
