Jack plane, jointer plane

The metal planes have an adjustable mouth. The fine adjustment of the iron is possible via a knurled screw, and a side lever allows for lateral adjustment of the iron. The No. 5 plane, known in England as a „Jack Plane,” functions both as a smoothing plane and as a small jointer. Its length of 355 mm—longer than a standard smoothing plane—makes it very popular not only among carpenters but also among joiners who want to quickly work on large surfaces!
