There are 14 profiles and shapes in this series. These planes are designed and made under Kakuri Corporation, beautifully constructed out of solid Ebony with a brass fixing screw for easy adjustment of the HSS blade. This is a small plane for rounding corner edges. Ideal for instrument making, box making and fine furniture to name just a few examples. Specifications: Profile: No2 Inside Round R3 Blade Width: 18 mm Plane Length: 90 mm Steel Hardness: 64 Rockwell The Mini Ebony Planes are designed in Japan and was originally also produced there, but due to the makers finding it difficult to source the ebony timber in Japan, production was moved to a company in Hong Kong which have been making traditional Chinese tools for over 35 years. Once manufactured, the planes return to Japan for quality control testing and packaging. This is one of the only products JTA sell that is not made in Japan. But we are confident that these mini planes are of premium quality.
