About Veritas seconds: this stock of our left-hand skew rabbet plane (05P4578) has some minor cosmetic flaw – a scratch, a pit in the casting or tiny blemishes – but the tool is functionally perfect. Quantities of seconds are limited and expected to sell out quickly.
With a blade skewed at a 30° angle to reduce cut resistance and aid in shaving clearance, this plane cuts quickly and quietly, avoiding the set-up, noise and dust associated with power tools.
Corner cuts are clean and accurate. Tear-out on cross-grain work is reduced with a scoring spur that sits ahead of the blade. The 7 3/8" long fence allows a maximum rabbet width of 1 1/2" and is through-drilled to accept a wooden extension. An adjustable shoe controls the rabbet depth to a maximum 3/4" deep.
Supplied with a lapped blade 1/8" thick and just over 1 5/8" wide, with a bevel edge that is about 1 3/4" in PM-V11 steel. The depth-adjustment mechanism is fast and accurate. Set screws along the side allow repeatable blade positioning. The 9 3/4" long ductile cast iron body is machined with a 45° blade bed and weighs 3 1/2 lb.
This plane is the left-hand version; a right-hand version is also available. You may need only the version that suits your dominant hand, though they are in fact complementary, since having both lets you accommodate any grain direction. Patented.
A pair of 6" stainless-steel fence rods (2 1/2" longer than the rods supplied with the plane) are available separately.
Made in Canada.
