It delivers an incredibly smooth finish on wood and is ready to use right out of the box. The soft iron lamination increases blade durability and makes sharpening easier, ensuring long-lasting performance. With a two-blade structure that includes a chipbreaker, it minimizes wood splitting compared to single-blade planes, offering a safer, more reliable planing experience.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great hand plane
*by B***M on March 28, 2025*

This was the first Japanese hand plane that I’ve purchased. It is everything I expected and more. The instructions for setting the blade and chip breaker are well written and easy to follow. The blade is sharp and read to got as soon as you get it. Follow the instructions nd you will be pealing off supper thin shavings in no time. I will deffently be getting additional planes for other functions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Blades have big enough waves to surf.
*by J***D on June 18, 2023*

I knew what I was getting into with this as I had watched setup videos before the purchase. Everything is fine and in good shape. Expect the irons. The chip breaker has a high spot in the middle of the blade back near the edge that is about 1/8 high and the cutting iron has both high and low spots on the edge that is off by an easy 1/16 front and back. I gave up on using my water stones and moved over to my diamond stones for flattening and have already spent about 8 hours on it and have yet to get them flat. At this point it's good enough even though it not really flat in any sense of the word. I have yet to get the chip breaker and iron to sit on each other with out light showing through. Yes I am feeling a bit frustrated.While this is my first Japanese plane I have lots of experience with setting up European planes and chisels both wood working chisels and carving gouges. So while not an expert I am pretty good at flattening blade backs.With all that said it does cut pretty good and leaves a nice finish but it constantly jams and needs to cleared out. Wood bits get stuck between the chipbreaker and iron. I use a bamboo skewer the kind you get at the supermarket for shish kebabs. Clearly I have to learn how to use it properly.
