Veritas Large Shoulder Plane with PM-V11 Blade Kit

At 8-1/4'' long and 1-1/4'' wide, and weighing nearly 4 lbs., this Large Shoulder Plane brings both authority and precision to larger work. Typical shoulder planes are awkward to handle and control; Veritas has overcome this by shaping a lever cap that fits properly in the palm, incorporating a hardwood lever cap knob that pivots 180° and adding a multi-positional front knob that can be mounted on the top or on either side. You can also grip the plane in the recesses cast into the side. This combination of features ensures a solid, comfortable grip for all users in all applications. It includes a lapped, 1/8''-thick PM-V11 alloy blade. Made in Canada. Patented.
