Jack Plane 50mm No4 Carbon Steel Woodworking Hand Plane

A No4 jack plane used for general woodworking tasks such as smoothing, shaping and preparing timber by hand. This woodworking hand plane has a 50mm adjustable high carbon steel blade, giving you control over the depth of cut for finer finishing or removing rough surface marks.

Used across bench joinery, workshop jobs, furniture making and home woodworking, a jack plane is a handy choice when timber needs flattening, edges need tidying or surfaces need preparing before assembly or finishing. It suits both regular woodworkers and DIY users who want better control than power tools can sometimes give, especially when taking fine shavings, cleaning up boards or refining the fit of timber parts.

The No4 size is a well-known all-round option for everyday planing work, offering a practical balance between coverage and control. Its compact, lightweight design makes it easier to guide across the timber and more manageable during longer sessions, while the ergonomic handle helps with grip and comfort. The high carbon steel blade is made for repeated use and can be adjusted to suit the job, which is useful when moving between rougher preparation work and finer smoothing without changing tools.
