Frequently Bought Together
The Axminster Workshop No.1 Bench Plane is a must-have for any woodworker. This miniature plane is perfect for smoothing and is ideal for use in hard-to-reach areas due to its small size. The original Stanley No.1 bench plane is a rare collectible, making this Axminster Workshop No.1 bench plane a valuable and affordable addition to your collection.
The blade is cryogenically treated high carbon steel, hardened and tempered to 60-62 Rockwell HRC, offering excellent edge retention. It comes with a 25° bevel. The blade only requires honing before use (putting a 30° micro bevel on the edge can be done in less than a minute).
This limited edition plane features a ductile grey iron body, with a flat ground sole. It features an adjustable frog allowing you to close the plane's mouth for finer work. The 'Y' level that helps control the depth is an investment casting for better engagement with the blade. The plane has a lever cap iron and solid brass adjusting nut. The handle is made from hardwood.
It can be used as a palm tool, or with two hands like a traditional bench plane.
Axminster Workshop planes are made to a good standard and quality and only require a minimum of initial preparation or fettling before your first thin shaving. The sole of the No.1 is 140mm long and 40mm wide.
