Description

Achieve smooth, clean timber surfaces with the Soba No. 4 Bedrock Smoothing Plane. Measuring 250mm (10") long with a 50mm (2") blade, this traditional bench plane is ideal for final smoothing, removing machining marks and preparing timber for finishing.

The strong ductile iron body provides excellent stability, while the flat, accurately machined sole helps the plane travel consistently across the workpiece.
