Bench Dog’s No. 7 Jointer Plane is the longest in the bench plane lineup. Thanks to it’s lengthy sole, it quickly levels dips and high spots to produce a straight, square edge prior to edge joining. It also performs the final flattening of surfaces before finishing with a smoothing plane. Quality materials, precision machining and solid construction result in a hand plane that’s an absolute pleasure to use. The sole is precision ground flat. The blade is made from thick 1/8” hardened carbon steel for reduced chatter and excellent edge retention. Solid sapele is used for the comfortable tote and knob, adding a touch of elegance. Each plane includes a case, sock, manual and a Certificate of Inspection with measurements specific to your plane for sole flatness and blade hardness.
