Lie-Nielsen No. 102 Low Angle Block Plane. With smooth, precise adjustments and wonderful balance, this compact block plane is a joy to use. It doesn’t have any bells and whistles, but there’s not a better block plane available for the money. Buy at Direct.
The Veritas low-angle block plane has a body made of ductile cast iron, and features two setscrews used to center the blade precisely. By Chris Gochnour Jan 26, 2012. The designers of this tool broke all of the old molds and started from scratch to make a unique, no-nonsense, purely functional tool. The unorthodox grip—three circular ...
The Veritas DX60 is a low-angle block plane, cast from ductile iron. Veritas has introduced two low-angle block planes. The DX60 and NX60 are identical in dimension, function, and performance. They have stainless steel fittings, a 12° bed, and the same features. They measure 1-3/4 in. wide by 7 in. long and have a 1-5/8-in.-wide A2-steel blade.
Much like a block plane, the Veritas No. 1 excels where its small sole allows for finesse and control in fitting, sizing, and shaping smaller parts. Tasks like chamfering or rounding over edges, fine-tuning miters, or fine-tuning the reveal on doors and drawers become easier. The plane has a sole 5-3⁄16 in. long and 1-25⁄32 in. wide.
The Veritas low angle jack plane does perform flawlessly, both upright and on it’s side for shooting. It is an excellent plane and has some interesting features like set screws to stabilize sideward movement of the blade and a thumbscrew to use as a stop on the mouth setting.

Hands down the LN is a better plane. The machining specs are what I think really separates the two. The flatness of the bottom [sole] is a critical factor in how well a plane operates. Using the 4 1/2's as an example the LN is guaranteed flatter than .0015 while the LV is flatter than .003".

The DX60 and NX60 are identical in dimension, function, and performance. They have stainless steel fittings, a 12° bed, and the same features.
Skew block plane is the latest addition to the high-quality line of Veritas handplanes. Because its blade is angled 15°, it planes with less resistance and produces cleaner cuts than regular block planes, especially across the grain. Better yet, the blade reaches all the way to one sideof the body, and it has a fence and a nicker blade, making ...
