Taytools #5 Premium Bedrock Style Flattop Jack Plane Bench Plane - 14" Sole, 2" Wide Blade Cryo O1 Steel

The BR Series #5 Jack Plane is inspired by the legendary Stanley Bedrock planes (1895-1945), known for their durability, precision, and innovative design. Often referred to as the "jack of all trades," this versatile plane is perfect for smoothing, jointing, flattening, and trimming parts to final size. Its well-balanced design allows for efficient material removal while also providing the control needed for fine finishing. Crafted from ductile cast iron, the body and frog ensure superior stability and longevity, while the precision-lapped sole and sides deliver a perfectly flat surface for accurate planing. Measuring 14" long, 2-1/2" wide, and weighing 5 lbs, this plane offers the ideal combination of size and mass for tackling a wide range of woodworking tasks. The cryogenically treated O1 steel iron, 0.120" thick and 2" wide, is hardened to 54-58 HRc, providing exceptional edge retention, easy sharpening, and the ability to take ultra-fine shavings. Designed with a fully machined frog seating system based on early Stanley Bedrock models, this jack plane delivers maximum rigidity and reduced chatter for a clean, precise cut. The innovative frog adjustment mechanism allows for easy, precise mouth opening adjustments without disassembling the iron, optimizing performance for everything from rough stock removal to fine finishing. The hand-rubbed Sapele wood knob and tote ensure a comfortable grip and a timeless aesthetic. Ideal for both professional woodworkers and hobbyists, the BR Series #5 Jack Plane is a must-have for any workshop, offering power, precision, and versatility in a single tool.
