Infill plane - Norris

A post war coffin shaped A5 smoothing plane made by Thomas Norris of London.

Ebonised Beech infills, showing some loss of finish through normal wear and tear.

Has a good length parallel cutting iron  marked 'NORRIS LONDON' on the front with 'ROBT SORBY SHEFFIELD ENGLAND' on the reverse

Lever cap and brass knurled blade adjusting knob are also marked Norris London.

Plane body has some marks, scratches through use, and some slight staining.

The blade can be finely adjusted with its Norris adjuster which allows micrometer sensitivity for depth of cut and easy alignment.

A good, honest example, straight from the previous owners workshop.

Will need sharpening and honing to suit your own needs
