narrow vintage wooden cabinet maker's plane (Cainscross GL5)
Promised
with the blade cutting at a slight angle to the direction of motion the shavings are ejected to the side and the cutting is a tad easier. A lovely hand tool great for smoothing the edges of narrow boards or cutting approx 1" wide slots.
