Product Information

This ensures absolute stability of the Frog, providing a firm and solid surface for the cutting iron, this again rests on a fully machined upper side of the Frog.

The front knob and handle are made from solid bubinga wood which provides a firm and comfortable grip. This ensures absolute stability of the Frog, providing a firm and solid surface for the cutting iron, which again rests on a fully machined upper side of the Frog. Clifton blades have a reputation as quick to hone whilst producing one of the finest sharp edges available .The Y Lever is a solid one-piece casting and the Adjusting Lever and most other components are made from polished stainless steel. Because the frog extends right through to the sole, adjusting the frog to narrow the mouth does not reduce blade support as it does in standard planes of this style.

The plane itself requires no flattening or fettling in prior to use, although the most users prefer to hone the blade themselves to their preferred cutting angle. It is made from ductile cast iron and has the same adjustable frog with a combined feed and lateral adjust mechanism that is sturdy, yet sensitive and accurate. This ensures absolute stability of the Frog, providing a firm and solid surface for the cutting iron, which again rests on a fully machined upper side of the Frog.

In fact, the combination of the mouth location and the very sensitive feed adjustment lets this plane serve as a jointer for most cabinet work.

Compared to my Stanley no5, probably from the 1980's, it's the one with the plastic handles, I got it secondhand, the Faithfull outshines it at every turn, whereas the Stanley's sole was convex, (that's probably why it was so cheap) the Faithfull was almost flat and needed very little flattening and yes, you can use it straight out of the box even though honing is recommended.
