Limited Edition Clifton Planes To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Clifton brand, a limited edition of individually numbered engraved bench planes have been created. Only 25 of each size are being made. The planes are fitted with handles specially made from a single English Walnut tree that fell last autumn in the Forest of Dean. They won't be around for long so make sure you take advantage of this once in a life time offer. |

Clifton Bench Planes These high quality planes are made to exacting standards for today's discerning woodworker. The combination of accuracy and precision allied with attention to finishing details have created a magnificent series of Sheffield-made planes of outstanding craftsmanship using time honoured skills. Each one is both a pleasure to handle and a joy to look at. At the heart of each Clifton Bench Plane lies a hand forged high carbon steel cutting iron, hardened and tempered to 60-62 Rockwell C, to take and more importantly hold a razor sharp edge. The Clifton two piece cap iron is an effective way of reducing cutting iron chatter, even on the toughest of timbers. The extra thickness of the cutting iron and the two piece cap iron gives the cutting edge tremendous support close to the point of cut. The Bedrock design allows adjustments of the frog both forwards and backwards by means of a centrally located screw at the rear of the frog - enabling adjustments to be made without dismantling your cutting iron setting. The accuracy of the Bedrock design allows the cutting edge to be advanced to give a virtual "zero" mouth opening, so allowing the finest of shavings to be taken in even the most difficult of timbers. Accuracy - the cutter adjusting wheel engages positively - so no irritating "back-lash". Each Clifton Plane is flat to within 0.003" when it leaves the factory. Each blade is individually checked for hardness. Additional features are precision ground sole and sides, stainless steel screws, dowel pins, lateral adjusting level and a hefty feel. Voted best value for money in "Traditional Woodworking" January 2002. Simply a delight to use! |

Clifton 77 Bullnose Plane This is the first new plane introduced by Clifton in a while. Like all other Clifton planes it is made to exacting standards in Sheffield. The cutter width is 1.1/8" (29mm). An adjustable set screw in the toe acts as a stop to set the mouth opening accurately. Adjustment in the toe allows the mouth to be narrowed to produce very fine shavings. Overall length is 4". |

Clifton Multi Plane The Clifton Multiplane is the pinnacle of the plane makers art. No other combination plane today has all the features that the Clifton Multiplane can boast. Combination planes were the forerunners of many of today's power tools. Yet for the hand tool enthusiast there is no greater pleasure than doing so much with one refined plane. Reflecting its prestige the Clifton Multiplane comes in a sturdy, polished rosewood box complete with detailed instructions.
The body of this beauty is cast from grey iron for added strength with a nickel chrome plating for protection. All the wooden furniture - knob, hence and handle - is made of traditional rosewood.
When supplied the Clifton Multiplane comes with a set of 24 different accurately machined cutters - 13 plough and dado, 1 filister, 5 beading, 2 tonging, 2 ovolo, 1 slitting. A set of 16 additional cutters is also available.

Fine adjustment of the cutter is possible. The concave can be used in place of a draw knife to chamfer square stock, or for shaping and blending in curves. The convex version is the counterpart to the concave model, and is used for recessed work. Both cutters are based around a 2.1/2" dia. curve, with other specifications being identical. Length 10". |
