No. 140 Iron Skew Block Plane - Left

A cross between a block plane and a rabbet plane, this plane has low bedding angle combined with a skewed blade. It cuts very well cross or end grain, cleaning up rabbets, dados, tenons and is a handy aid for dovetailing.

A retractable nicker scores cross-grain fibers, and the removable side plate and adjustable fence allow quick conversion to rabbeting and cross-grain work, such as fielding raised panels.

The 1-1/2" wide x 1/8" thick blade has an 18° skew and is bedded at 12° with a captive nut for positive and accurate adjusting.

• Body is 6-7/8" long x 1-7/8" wide.
• Iron, 2.1 lbs.
