## Description

- For cutting and slicing the wooden surface, user-friendly small wood planer, item number: 110401, item weight: 129 g, size: 37 x 5.2 x 14.2 cm, blade width: 4 cm, length: 15 cm

Review: Decent little plane - Decent little plane, able to be used straight away. Very sharp. Adjustment is different to what I'm used to but simple. Definitely a good plane to start with. Nice and small and easy to hold. Definitely takes some getting used to. Good price, couldn't find one anywhere else for this price. Have already looked at bigger plane for larger work but that's as far as it's got at moment. This little one will do the job for now.
Review: Persevere and it will reward you - At first very hard to remove blade but you just have to keep tapping it with light hammer on the wooden top corner while pressing blade per instructions. Tricky to set perfect depth but once there it remains fixed. Stopped the blade but it wasn't as badly ground as many cheap planes. Overall decent for the price

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Any ideas how to release the blade when a hammer tap doesn't work? I have seen a suggestion to soak it in water but not tried that yet.**
A: i think that if you soak in water then the wood will swell and make it even tighter. i found that gentle tapping on each side will release the blade, another method might be to hold the end of the blade and tap the back of the body i have had success with both these methods.

**Q: Can you explain what is a "Double Edge" plane blade?**
A: I think you are talking about a blade and chip breaker. This plane has just a blade no chip breaker. It is very basic and I would not recommend. Spend a little bit more and get one with a chip breaker. You are going to have to set the plane up to get it working. Check it out online so you know what you are getting into. Being wood it’s fairly easy to set up with a few basic tools. A Japanese plane is usually supplied unusable until you do the setup.

**Q: How thin can this plane shave off?**
A: Set up correctly it can take off a see-through shaving - suggest practicing on an offcut until you get setup bang on

**Q: Your description ?**
A: Frst of all, this is a small plane with a 4cm blade. It was very sharp and the depth is very easily set with a gentle tap of a hammer. 
As described, this is a plane for finishing edges. All seven internal doors in my house needed resizing. I used this tool to work on the cross grain top and bottom and the long sides. As would be expected it was better on the long grain. In fact, it was excellent here and coped better than could be expected with the end grain. All in all, the best tool I had for the edge work.
The cut of Japanese saws is made by pulling towards the user, not pushing away. This plane is the same, grasped on the top side and pulled inwards.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Patience required by the bucket load!
*by M***L on 6 December 2023*

Like several other reviewers, I too received a plane with a 'welded in' blade and resorted to wiggling the blue from side to side with the aid of a 3kg lump hammer! I suggest NOT bothering with any kind of rubber or plastic hammer if you have a very stuck blade as the shock absorption is too much and actually drives the blade further in. A good solid wooden mallet should suffice in most cases and lump hammer as a final resort when you're ready to throw the blasted thing under a truck! Once I had removed the blade setting up was easy and I have never done anything like this before and I'm a 60 year old girly with an amateur interest in carpentry and woodcraft. If I can do it anyone can. I found some really helpful info online which I want to pass on because it took forever to find the CORRECT method to set this plane up properly. The blade of this plane is very good quality but NOT a standard kanna blade. You will see when you get it out of the 'dai' (base) that it has a curved hollow right across the bottom of the blade on the 'back' side (the side with the lettering) unlike a standard blade which has a 'U' shaped hollow. This is the 'Ura', a hollow which forms a narrow surface at the front and sides and is the only bit of this side requiring sharpening or flattening. It is called a 'low maintenance' blade and does away with the need to carry out 'Ura dashi' - tapping out the blade with a hammer when the edge becomes worn down. Ideal for beginners actually but not as ideal as some instructions with the plane which would be REALLY helpful! Have a look at www.tablinstore.info and www.bigsandwoodworking.com both sites have info about this type of blade and how to set up and sharpen it. Do NOT try and flatten the back of the blade as instructed on all the other sites because this is not a standard blade it is 'low maintenance' designed to be as simple as possible for the novice and must be set up differently. This is an excellent quality tool but requires a fair bit of finishing as this is where the production saving has been made.. It is not necessary to do any of this finishing if you don't want to because it works brilliantly straight out of the box but if you want get the most from it or learn about Japanese tools I recommend spending some time doing the 'tuning' - it's not difficult, once you find the right instructions, and personally I found it enjoyable and rewarding. The tool is very, very robust and very forgiving so you can get it wrong quite a bit without causing serious damage. Just be patient and be sure you understand what you're doing before you start. I gave it a few hours of my time and now I have a professional looking tool and feel very proud of myself! For info about setting up the 'Dai' the wooden block of the plane, try JapaneseToolsAustralia on YouTube, easy to follow 5 part video demonstration of the setting up process with a cheap plane and an ill fitting blade! Perfect! Loads of other videos here of course but this was particularly relevant. So if like me, you've received a troublesome item and you're keen but basically clueless - have a go and surprise yourself! Hope someone finds this review helpful and if so please help others find it by pointing at it.
