Lie-Nielsen No 101 Violin Maker’s Plane

Product Description

This pocket-sized block plane is the smallest of the Lie-Nielsen hand planes to feature a captive nut blade adjuster for precisely controlled depth of cut.

Loosely based on the Stanley No.101 block plane, the Lie-Nielsen Violin Maker’s Plane features several significant improvements that put it in a class of its own. The body and cap are made from Manganese Bronze for extra weight, durability, and resistance to rust. The blade is 1/8″ thick for chatter-free cuts and made from cryogenically treated A-2 steel for prolonged edge life. The addition of a finely controlled blade depth adjuster make this little workhorse perfect for detail-oriented jobs like instrument building or model making.

The body is 3 7/16″ long x 1 3/16″ wide x 1 5/8″ tall. The blade is 7/8″ wide x 1/8″ thick and bedded at 18 degrees. Weight is 0.50 lbs.
