Hock Tools

Hock has been at this since 1981, starting out making knives and doing the craftsfair gigs, which has got to be the toughest marketing work in the world. The staff and students at James Krenov's Fine Woodworking Program at the College of the Redwoods here in Fort Bragg convinced me to re-tool to make plane irons for them. Turns out woodworkers are very appreciative of better-quality tools and one blade led to another and another and it wasn't long before we were making only woodworking tools.

These 3/32" thick blades offer a substantial improvement over the inferior chrome-vanadium junk that comes with most new tools. Our high carbon steel blades can be honed easier and sharper. And our blades will hold an edge longer. All will fit 99.9% of Stanley and Record style planes with no modifications other than a simple frog adjustment.

Scraper Plane Blades

Made for the Stanley #12, 12½ and 112 Scraper Planes, these blades are 3/32" thick (less flexible, most popular) or 1/16" thick (more flexible) by 2-7/8" wide and 5" long with a 45° bevel on the cutting edge. Hardened for a balance of long edge life and burr "rollability" (you do have one of our burnishers, don't you?) you finally have a source of blades for these classic planes.
And for the #80 (1/16" X 2-3/4" X 3" long) and the #81 (1/16" X 2-1/2" x 3-7/8" long) Scraper Planes, too! High carbon steel.
