Two blade guide screws prevent shifting of the blade. |

The adjustable nosepiece does not extend beyond the body, so that it cannot be accidentally driven back into a sharp blade. |
| |
The 20° bed angle of the plane and 25° bevel angle on the blade result in an effective cutting angle of 45°. Ideal for general-purpose work. |
|
The low-profile lever cap allows the plane to fit the hand well. |
|
The plane is 6-3/8" long by 2" wide. |
