The blade is skewed at 15°, making cutting easier with or across the grain and helping pull the fence tight against the work. Because the blade sits flush with the side of the body, corner cuts are clean and accurate. A Norris-style adjuster combines feed and lateral positioning, and set screws on both sides keep the blade from shifting. A scoring spur ahead of the blade reduces cross-grain tear-out; it adjusts for depth and projection and can be recessed when working with the grain.
The machined and surface-ground 6 3/8" × 1 3/4" ductile cast iron body has a 12° bed and a movable toe fully enclosed by the casting. A hardwood locking knob sets the toe to control the mouth, while a set screw in the throat allows repeatable mouth positioning and prevents blade-toe contact. A sliding collet held by a large brass knob adjusts the 3 1/2" wide, 5/16" thick hardwood fence. The fence base is tapped for a user-made extension such as a wooden wedge for controlled bevels.
The plane comes in left- and right-hand models; neither is for left- or right-handed use only, but having both lets you handle any grain direction. Lapped blade 1/8" thick, 1 1/2" wide, 25° bevel, in A2, O1 or PM-V11. An optional 3 1/2" stainless-steel fence rod and depth stop are sold separately.
The plane is supplied without a blade; choose a blade separately.

Which plane to start with depends on what you will do, but for most people a smoothing plane (No. 4) or a jack plane (No. 5) is a good first choice. The smoothing plane gives smooth surfaces, and the jack plane is a versatile plane for both rough work and truing edges.
A block plane is a good addition for end grain and chamfers. The guide explains how the hand plane is built and which types exist.
Planes of cast iron and steel rust easily, especially in unheated workshops and from moisture on your hands. Wipe the plane after use and protect bare surfaces with a thin layer of wax or oil that will not mark the wood.
Store your planes dry, ideally in a plane sock or box. If rust has already formed, the guide shows how to clean and protect them.
