This type of tool is different from others available in the market as it is made in Japan, which is worldwide famous for its blade quality and precision building. Japanese planes also ensure that each part fits in place correctly to provide more confident usage and safer blade handling. Users can modify the use of heavy detailing or macro-planing.
Accuracy guaranteed
This tool is ideal for woodworkers and carpenters looking to get a mirror finish on their projects using Japanese blades that stay sharp for a long time. These planes are built by expert craftsmen using top-quality steel and hardwood, which better control the object's surface. You can use these planes to provide a good polish and create smooth chamfers between two adjoining pieces. Moreover, it is possible to restore the blade's sharpness to the original by a simple whetstone sharpening, easy to learn.
Size and specifications
Japanese planes are available in various sizes that can polish different wood quantities according to the blade size. The smaller varieties are more helpful for precision polishing and plaining as they work efficiently on surface edges and chamfers. These planes use an exceptionally high-quality Japanese steel that is made of a higher carbon concentration. This configuration prevents the blade from becoming blunt even after repeated usage on multiple types of wood surfaces.
Handy and adjustable
The smaller size of these Japanese planes ensures that you always maintain a steady grip on the tool. These planes are less in weight than most of the plains available in the market. The blades are adjustable by a simple configuration to get the type of finish you are looking for with minimal effort. All you need to do is extract the edge from the plane and reinsert it in the correct position to achieve the configuration you desire. A whetstone can be used to resharpen when needed.
