No. 140 Skew Block Plane
     
  This multi talented block plane is designed to deal with hard woods and difficult timbers using a combination of a shear cutting action from the skew blade, the low angle approach with the blade bedded at an angle of 12° and the extra weight of the bronze body. An excellent tool for trimming off assembled joints, improving fit and cleaning up, particularly on end grain. Additionally you can quickly convert the No. 140 to rebating by removing a side panel and mounting the adjustable fence. Beautifully presented in polished manganese bronze, stainless steel and cherry wood with a cryogenically treated A2 tool steel blade - a joy to use, being the answer to many difficult problems and a joy to own.

  Length: 175mm(6 7/8")
  Blade: 47.5mm(17/8") wide x 3.2mm(1/8") thick
  Weight: 900g(2lbs)
