Hand Plane Blade 48 mm made exclusively for us
Dieter Schmid Fine Tools is proud to offer these Hand Plane Blades which have been made exclusively for us in a limited run. These blades are Made in Germany from high alloy, tungsten tool steel specially selected for optimal hardness and an extra fine cutting edge. Each blade is precision laser cut, contour machined to exact specifications, vacuum heat treated and tempered to RC 61 and then carefully ground on automated machinery.
This blade is suitable for alle wooden planes with blade width 48 mm and where the blade is hold by a wedge. You can fit your ECE or ULMIA plane with this blade. Not suitable for wooden planes with blade adjustment!
The two round holes are only for production reasons and can be ignored when plane is in use.
As the blade is thicker than most blades for wooden planes, it may happen in seldom cases that some material from the rear side of the front part of the plane body has to be removed to enlarge the mouth. Use a sharp (!!) chisel or a file.
The blade is 3.75 mm thick. See accurate sizes here:
