I own and recommend WoodRiver V3 planes. These planes are based on the reliable Stanley Bedrock design, are very well made, and have an excellent price point making them a "BEST VALUE."

All of our WoodRiver bench planes receive our Cosman preparation service so they are 100% ready to use out of the box.  See prep service below for description of what we do.

Traditionally, a smoothing plane is the last plane used on a wood surface. When sharpened and used properly, it produces a finish that surpasses that made by sandpaper.  

Because I keep my jack plane freshly sharpened I normally don’t need to use a smoother, but on those occasions when I do, I reach for my WoodRiver No. 4-1/2. 

Plane Description: 

• No. 4-1/2 Plane size: 2-7/8” W x 10-3/8”L with 2-3/8”W blade.

• Includes plane preparation service.

• Heavy, stress-relieved ductile iron castings.
  

• Fully machined adjustable frogs bedded at a 45 degree angle.

• Thick steel blade and chipbreaker dampens vibration making solid planing.

• Lightly finished Bubinga handles provide comfort and control.

• Soles and sides are machined flat and square within tightly held tolerances.
