Stanley Sweetheart #4 Smoothing Plane

Stanley Sweetheart #4 Smoothing Plane is an essential tool for any woodworker, prized for its versatility and precision. This updated version of Stanley's classic #4 "Sweetheart" plane features a one-piece ductile cast iron base and frog, providing maximum stability to the iron and minimizing chatter for a smoother finish. The body is fully stress-relieved and aged before precision machining, ensuring flatness and perfect alignment between the soles and sides. Its heavier body effectively dampens vibrations, enhancing overall performance. The plane incorporates a patent-pending blade mechanism that allows for quick and easy lateral adjustments, which can be securely locked to maintain settings. Solid brass adjustments are finely machined for smooth operation, and the adjustable mouth offers further fine-tuning options for optimal results. Equipped with a 2-inch wide A2 steel blade, which is thicker and hardened to Rc 60-62 for superior edge retention and reduced chatter, the blade is ground to a 25-degree angle to deliver excellent cutting performance. Measuring 2-1/2 inches wide and approximately 11 inches in length, the plane also features a comfortable cherry handle and tote. This tool comes with a limited lifetime warranty and is made in Mexico/UK. Model Number:
