Product Description
Luban No.95 edge plane has overall length of 165mm and features unbreakable CR40 steel body, weighs 850gr. 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.
Features an integral 90° fence, designed to precisely and squarely trim the edges of stock or joint boards, with the low effective angle of 37° ensuring a fine finish on both cross and end grain. The integral 90° precision machined fence ensures the planing always occurs squarely to the face of stock. Two grub screws at either side of the blade keeps it from moving if it hits a knot and it has a fine pitch blade adjustment thread for improved blade setting accuracy. Different angles can be planed if required by adding home made wooden blocks to the inner face of the fence. A 32mm wide, 25° bevelled blade that is skewed by 30° is seated at 12° within the plane, giving an effective angle of 37° for fine planing of both cross and end grain.
#95 edge plane is designed for right handed use, but can easily be used by left handers.
