The MTC Complete Plane Kit

The MTC Complete Plane Kit provides you with all the fundamental hand planes you need to get started with in woodworking.

Features & Benefits

An uncomplicated set of planes

These planes are uncomplicated tools. Their minimalistic designs make it easy to disassemble for maintenance and reassemble for work. The adjustment knobs are accessible and feature a very smooth action. Adjust each planes blades depth of cut and skew easily and securely. Spend more time planing, less time adjusting.

M2 High Speed Steel blades

MTC has chosen M2 High Speed Steel (HSS) for the blades. M2 HSS has high abrasion resistance which means it will hold a sharp edge much longer than many other steels. This also means that it may take a little longer to bring up an edge. Don’t worry, you will be leaving your sharpening gear on the shelf for a lot longer too. MTC plane blades are also thicker than the average plane, this eliminates vibration is the cut, ensuring a smooth uniform finish.

Easy adjust features

All these planes feature easily adjustable features. Twist the front handle to release the toe. Use the mouth adjustment lever to set the mouth width opening to suit the work at hand. Close the mouth up tight to minimise tear out when working difficult figured materials. Open wide when working more predictable materials and make shavings fast without clogging.
