Lie Nielsen Rabbet Block Plane

Years ago, Sargent made a small rabbeting block plane, No. 507. It's a great design, handy as a block plane and wider than most rabbet planes, making it easy to trim tenons to fit. The Lie-Nielsen version has the blade bedded at 12° and a non-adjustable mouth.

Specifications:
1 3/4" (4.44 cm) overall width, 6 1/4" (15.87 cm) long
Unbreakable ductile iron body, ground flat and square to .001" (.0254 mm)
Bronze cap, 1/8" (3.17 mm) thick blade

The Rabbet Block Plane comes with a circular A-2 nicker, which protrudes by .010" on both sides of the plane and can be retracted by rotating until the flat section is at the bottom. Occasionally hone on a fine waterstone as needed.
