Adjustable Mouth for Micro-Thin Shavings!

The Rabbet Plane is a narrow plane used for perfecting grooves, rabbets, moldings and doors or window frames.

The 30mm-wide (1.2") blade is inserted near the center of the body at an angle of 45° to the planed surface, and the blade covers the entire width of the plane. The chipbreaker breaks chips from the planed material and removes them away from the planed surface.

The Rabbet Plane has an adjustable front sole for controling the width of the mouth opening. Made of European beech hardwood with a long-wearing hornbeam sole, these planes are ready for a lifetime of use.

Our premium wood body planes now feature a Norris style adjustment mechanism that makes them very easy to use. This traditional adjustment mechanism allows the depth of cut to be adjusted by turning the brass knob. Pressing the knob right or left will adjust the skew of the iron in the plane body. The Wedge also features a brass tensioning screw with thumb knob that makes securing the iron a snap and improves tension near the end of the wedge where it matters most.

Blade may require initial flattening of the back and honing before use.
