What is a "block plane"?
A block plane is a small hand tool used for smoothing and trimming wood. It has a flat, rectangular body with a sharp blade that is set at a low angle. The blade is used to shave thin layers of wood, making it ideal for tasks like smoothing rough edges, leveling surfaces, or fitting joints. Block planes are commonly used in woodworking for fine finishing and precision work, especially on smaller projects. They are lightweight and easy to handle, making them a popular choice for woodworkers who need control over detailed cuts and smooth surfaces.
