Garrett Wade No. 60-1/2 Low Angle Block Plane

With a body of cast iron, a 1/8" thick blade, and brass knobs and brass cap, this is a tool that has the heft and steadiness to allow you to do good work no matter what the direction of the grain. Derived from the geometry of the historic Stanley 60-1/2 this style is arguably the single most useful and versatile woodworker's iron block plane available--no matter what the maker. And the adjustable mouth adds significantly to achieve very thin shavings if desired.
