Chisel Plane

Detail those tough-to-reach areas of your projects with the new Blue Spruce Chisel Plane. We took a simpler approach compared to traditional chisel planes. The face of the iron acts as the sole of the plane (instead of bedding an iron at an angle to a separate sole). You'll never struggle to align the cutting edge to the sole or have to adjust the depth of cut. It's similar to using a razor-sharp paring chisel, except there's no handle to interfere with your cut and the elevated grip gives you a mechanical advantage.

Like Blue Spruce chisels, the iron of the Chisel Plane is ground from cryogenically-treated A-2 tool steel. The flat side is surface ground, lapped and polished to a flatness unmatched in the industry. The bevel is expertly ground and hand-honed to a perfect cutting edge. You have your choice of a square blade or a spearpoint blade that sneaks into the tightest corners.

Whether you're shaving the ends of exposed tenons, cleaning up dovetails or removing glue squeeze-out, the Blue Spruce Chisel Plane gets the job done quickly and without the fuss you'll have with bedded angle designs. A simple index pin and one flathead machine screw position the blade perfectly. The machined aluminum body elevates your grip just the right amount and the wooden palm pad helps you put the pressure right where it's needed. 

You have your choice of black or Blue Spruce green for the body and between straight and spearpoint blades. The blades are interchangeable, so you can use one body and switch between blade styles, if you choose. The palm pad is sculpted from resin-infused figured maple. Spare flat and spearpoint blades are also available.

With the new wall-mountable Rack-It, you can keep your Chisel Plane close and on display wherever you want it. This custom-made Rack-It is built entirely of steel with a tough, carbide black powder coating that will last you a lifetime. Rack-Its sold separately.
