Smaller than I thought. Narrow blade.
A great little plane that can be made to work - not a serious workshop tool but that is pointed out in the description.The blade is narrow and difficult to set, this is common on cheap block planes so I was expecting a fiddly job and got one.The blade was not very sharp but this will soon be rectified, I must say that the wood that I tried it on was a Mallee Burl and very hard with a twisting grain so a tough task, it did quite well but as I said the blade wasn't very sharp.It is a remarkably well made for the money and the materials used are top quality.I'm considering buying the rest of the set and the mini workshop just to have them on display, they would shine up nicely and still be able to do small jobs.Overall I'm happy with the quality and usefulness for the money paid, I would buy again.

A real bargain
I wondered whether this tool would be any use at that price, and was pleasantly surprised. It really is made of brass and rosewood (not too much, being so small). It's nicely put together and works well once you sharpen the blade yourself - not sharp enough as it comes, but a minute on a stone and then strop fixes There's no spare blade provided, but this one should last years of careful sharpening. I used it for levelling inserts in a guitar bridge, a one-off job - it's too small to be used on long stretches.

Nicely crafted
More suitable for handicraft due size and weight

quite ok for the price
The plane is very nice little toy which once set up can make some good shavings and it's very handy if you need a plane in a difficult access part of a project.The plane is very well machined and looks great, I'm giving 4 stars because of the blade it came with, at least this one was really bad sharpened (shaped) the iron wasn't squared at all and it required a lot of honing in order to get it sharp and squared, certainly the could have done that in the factory in first place.But overall is a pretty good tool

Lovely.
A lovely made little item. To me this is more of an ornament and I love it as such. I did have a go at using it as a plane and.....Well, yeah, lets just say it didn't perform.So nicely made tho that if you want a nice ornament its great.I don't regret buying it.

It's plane awful
This is probably the worst tool I've ever bought. They say you get what you pay for and this certainly was cheap but it's so badly made it's unusable. It looked OK out of the packaging but I couldn't get it to plane level and at first thought it was a bad blade as I couldn't adjust it enough to level it off but then I noticed the body wasn't square (see image).One brass side plate is lower than every thing else and the wood centre piece is higher than both brass sides. There's no excuse for this kind of shoddy manufacture, really.

Köp inte
Kök inte såvidare du inte köper den för utseende eller sugen på att göra ett nytt eget hyvelstål då orginal blir snabbt slö efter 3-4 drag

Un oggettino carino, ma...
L'oggetto in questione è veramente piccolo, la lama va affilata, in ogni caso, da utilizzare solo per piccoli lavori...

quelle bonne surprise
le mini format permet d'agir sur des pièces très précises sans sortir la grosse artillerie. Qualité de fabrication au top ! agréablement surprise par ce que je croyais être un gagdet, qui a trouvé sa place sans difficultés dans mon atelier. et il est très élégant, ce qui est une belle surprise.

Prettiest fully functional Mini Block Plane I'm already using for building my wood ship models. Upgraded its blade to LeeValleyTools's mini block plane's blade (A2 steel) that has the same with, a bit shorter than the original.

Vitrinenstück
Eher ein fall für die vitrine.Sieht gut aus und ist nicht grösser als ein standartfeueuerzeug.Das man damit arbeiten soll kann ich mir nicht vorstellen.Nachdem ich die klinge erstmal begutachtet hab wanderte sie auch prompt über den schleifstein.Danach zog er um längen besser.Allerdings ist es so klein das es schwer ist ihn länger (10 min) fest in der hand zu halten und damit gründlich zu arbeiten.Ja man kann damit arbeiten aber wunder darf man nicht erwarten.Nachdem ich nun mehrere wochen damit gearbetet hab möchte ich ihn nicht mehr missen.Die klinge ist nun über ne 4000er stein gegangen und ist nahezu perfeckt!Jeder der sich mit dem hobel beschäftigt und ernsthaft ausseinandersetz wird damit zufrieden sein .Mein zweiter eindruck ist :Super werkzeug.Wird nur leider mit stumpfer klinge ausgeliefert.Mittlerweile kann ich sogar lacke hobeln und so halbieren.Ich bin wirklich erstaunt.
