Description

When hand-cutting joinery, precise joints like tenons don’t always fit quite right on the first pass. A shoulder plane is often the preferred solution. This tool is a narrow woodworking plane where, unlike a block plane, the blade extends across the entire sole so that you can trim right up into the corner of the tenon's cheek and shoulder. A shoulder plane can shave very thin bits (to a few thousands of an inch) off of ill-fitting tenons to achieve the perfect fit required for strong and lasting joints.

Plane Details

The 3-in-1 label on this plane is appropriate because you can remove the long nose of the plane for it to function as a “Chisel Plane.” You can also install the alternate short nose, and it works as a “Bullnose Plane.” This plane was created as a replica of the classic English design “Record No. 311” by Edward Preston & Sons. With a machined cast-iron body and a sharp steel blade, this shoulder plane offers great value and functionally with a classic pedigree.

Another of our celebratory anniversary tools, this one comes with the Garrett Wade 45th Anniversary logo stamped on the side. Add it to your woodworking tool collection today!

Win Win

"Works well as a shoulder plane, I was worried the removable piece would come loose - But I can find no complaints with this tool. And this is a third of the price of the name brand one (which I believe they stopped making anyway). Steven Covey would call that a Win-Win."

Q&A

I cannot tell from the photos, does the full front come with a nicker on the other side?
Doug, not sure what you mean by a nicker but I can say that both sides are identical. So what you see in the photo is the same on the other side. Thank you.
Hi GW, the description does not mention the width of the plane/blade. Can you add that to the description?
Douglas, the shoulder plane is 1 1/8" wide .Thankyou
Was this supposed to come with any instructions? How do you convert it to bullnose?
