## Description

No. 5 Carpenters Jack Plane. Ideal for the initial preparation of rough timber. Cast iron body. Precision milled base and faces. 2 inch (50mm) wide high carbon steel blade. Brass adjusting screw.

Review: Don’t let the price scare you. Quality product. - Nice solid plane. Blade comes sharp and ready to work. Setup isn’t difficult although I did take some time to double check the alignment. Overall the alignment is easy to adjust for nice accurate use. The fit and finish is what put it over the top to 5 stars. Don’t let the price scare you! They don’t skimp.
Review: Great value for the price - This S&J #5 jack plane would have earned 5 stars but for one simple flaw. On the version I purchased, the adjuster yoke (which advances/retracts the iron when you spin the adjustment wheel) is made of stamped steel rather than cast iron or bronze. It's very thin so there's a lot of movement (slop) before it actually advances or retracts the iron. I have to advance the wheel almost 4 turns before the iron moves. This plane is a beautiful one in all other aspects: the sole was almost dead flat, taking about 3-4 minutes to flatten. The chip breaker likewise took about 5 minutes to get the bevel flat against the iron. The iron itself really needed only a bit of honing to make it serviceable, but I went ahead and polished the back and the primary bevel as well before honing a secondary bevel. Another slight drawback was that all machines surfaces were coated with a film which required acetone to remove. I would have preferred a simple coating of oil instead. But otherwise, about 45-60 minutes of work to get this $35 plane performing like a $150-200 mid-level model. Impressive!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pleasantly surprised
*by G***C on June 6, 2025*

Not only did I read reviews prior to purchasing, I did general research on hand planers as I have never used one. The instructions said that this unit wasn’t “ready to go” and needed sharpening prior to use. I used it regardless and had absolutely no issues at all. Very simple and easy to use. I planed both sides of the table top I am currently working on and it came out great. I had very low expectations considering “top brand” hand planers are often over $200. It may be because of how new I am to woodworking, or my ignorance of how much better a $200 hand planer performs, but I am impressed with how great this experience has been so far with this product. I definitely recommend it.
