Veritas

Veritas have over the past half-century focused their efforts on better adjustments, blades that hold a finer edge and innovative structural improvement to eliminate blade vibration. Veritas planes are manufactured from fully stressed-relieved ductile cast iron, which is superior to earlier materials as it maintains its dimensions after machining and will take harder knocks without cracking. The precision fit between parts with fast and accurate adjustment is due to the high level of accuracy when machined.

Low Angle and Standard Block Planes

The combined feed screw and lateral adjustment are an outstanding feature that separates them from other block planes. The Low Angle has a 12 degree bed angle and a 25 degree bevel angle, excelling when working with end grain. For more general work, the Standard has a 20 degree bed angle plus the same 25 degree bevel angle.

The mouth adjustment is done quickly and easily with a stainless steel front knob. A set screw behind the front knob can be used to lock in a setting so that the mouth can be opened to clear shavings and then returned to exactly the same position. The lever cap is shaped to blend with the body to give a smooth, secure and comfortable grip.
This plane is 180mm long by 44mm wide and has a 12° bed angle. The 35mm wide A2 tool steel blade is 3.6mm thick and hardened to Rc60-62. It comes with a two-angle bevel: a 25° primary bevel and a 23° relief bevel to ease re-sharpening. All that is required is to hone your preferred micro-bevel. The blade back has been lapped to be perfectly smooth, so it should never need lapping prior to sharpening. Made in Canada.
