Sorry, our agreement with Woodcraft restricts us from shipping WoodRiver Planes to the U.S.
This is WoodRiver's No 1 bench plane. It is modelled after Stanley's No 1. Technically it's a smoothing plane but practically it's just too small to efficiently function as a smoother. It's about the size of a small block plane but a block plane is easier to hold. This plane has all the features of a regular bench plane except for a lateral adjustment lever (The Stanley No 1 didn't have a lateral adjustment lever either!). You laterally adjust it with hammer taps to the side of the blade. Sharpen it and it functions just like its full sized cousins. What I think this plane is really good for is a nice gift or desk ornament for a woodworker. Its just sooooo cute!
