Jointer plane - Record 08

A fine and very clean example of a pre-owned Record no 08 Jointer plane

It appears to have had very little use

Manufactured in Sheffield, this one was bought new by the previous owner in the late 1970's. This particular type was made from 1963 to 1981

The Record jointer plane number 08 is a 24 inch (610mm) long plane fitted with a 2 5/8" (67mm) wide crucible cast tungsten steel plane blade

Will need sharpening & honing before use

It was the longest plane produced in the Record plane range

The plane is equipped with a comfortable shaped rear hardwood handle and front knob, made from  varnished Beechwood

Weighs a whopping 9 lbs (4.10 kgs)
