Product information
The SHUNRAN ship plane is also a plane with a blade made of Blue Paper Steel (Aogami No. 1). This plane features a very soft backing layer to further ease the sharpening process.
Tsunesaburo is a well-established plane manufacturer in Miki City, Hyogo Province. Tsunesaburo is known for its wide range of planes in the high-quality segment.
Japanese hand planes, regardless of their price range, are not ready to use and require some adjustments by the user, particularly a reworking of the plane mouth is necessary. A detailed guide on this can be found in the book by Toshio Odate: The Tools of the Japanese Carpenter! A book purchase that pays off!
The specified plane width is more nominal and can vary by a few millimeters. The cutting width of the Japanese plane blade is less than the blade width itself, as the blade tapers towards the edge in the last few millimeters. Therefore, the cutting width is also specified. Again, this is hand-forged steel, so small variations may always occur. The plane soles are provided with a bevel on the sides.
