• 

  Lie-Nielsen Hand Planes

  Planes from Lie-Nielsen Toolworks in Maine, USA, who since 1981 have made top-quality hand tools and revived classic designs. The range includes bench planes, block planes, joinery planes, scraping planes and special-purpose tools in ductile iron and bronze.

• 

  Clifton Hand Planes

  Planes from the English maker Clifton, known for high quality. The bench planes are Bedrock-style, where the frog gives the blade a large bearing surface that reduces chatter and tear-out. The range includes smoothing planes, jack and jointer planes, shoulder planes and spokeshaves.

• 

  Smoothing Planes

  Smoothing planes for the final finish on a surface. Choose traditional sizes from No. 2 to No. 4 1/2 and bevel-up low-angle smoothers from Veritas, Lie-Nielsen and Clifton, plus extra blades at other angles for difficult grain.

• 

  Block Planes

  Block planes are small one-handed planes for end grain, chamfers and trimming. Choose standard and low-angle block planes, skew block planes with the blade to the edge, and accessories from Veritas, Lie-Nielsen and Clifton.

• 

  Jack and Jointer Planes

  Jack, fore and jointer planes for truing and flattening larger surfaces and edges. Choose short and long bench planes from Veritas, Lie-Nielsen and Clifton, both Bedrock-style designs and bevel-up planes with an adjustable mouth.

• 

  Rebate and Plough Planes

  Rebate planes, plough planes and combination planes for rebates, grooves and profiles. The range includes Veritas plough planes, the Veritas combination plane and rebate planes, modern versions of classic planes made to a high standard of precision.

  Router Planes

  Router planes for levelling the bottom of grooves, dadoes and housings to an exact depth and for trimming tenons. The range includes large, medium and small router planes from Veritas and Lie-Nielsen, with open or closed throats.

• 

  Scraping Planes

  Scraping planes hold a thin blade that scrapes rather than cuts. They are used for smoothing veneer and highly figured or reversing grain, where an ordinary plane easily causes tear-out.

• 

  Shooting Boards

  Shooting boards for planing end grain at an exact right angle, or at 45° and other angles, together with a plane, often a low-angle jack or block plane. The range includes the Veritas shooting board and accessories such as a sanding block and low-friction tape.
