Jorgensen No.60-1/2 Low Angle Block Plane – Model 70710 – This plane from Jorgensen is designed to be the most versatile and precise tool in your workshop. With its low angle and adjustable mouth, it is ideal for smoothing end grain and performing fine finishing touches that require superior one-handed control.

Professional Features and Benefits:

• Low Angle for High Performance: The blade is set at a 12-degree angle, making it perfect for cutting end grain and providing an exceptionally smooth cut in hardwoods.
• Heavy Pro O1 Blade (3.0 mm): The blade is made from 3mm thick O1 steel, which minimizes chatter and ensures remarkable stability during cutting.
• Adjustable Mouth: The adjustable mouth feature allows you to control the thickness of the shavings, enabling a transition from coarse cutting to super-fine, microscopic smoothing.
• Ductile Iron Body: The body is made from impact-resistant ductile cast iron, with precisely ground sole and sides to ensure smooth gliding on wood.
• Stress Relieved Metal: The metal has undergone heat treatment to ensure the sole remains perfectly flat and is not affected by atmospheric changes or work stresses over time.
