Clifton No.6 Jack (Fore) Plane [Pre-owned]

Product Description

Pre-owned (circa 2010) but very well looked after.

British racing green painted body which indicates pre-Thomas Flinn takeover of the Clifton name and manufacturing process.

So, this plane has a hand forged 2 3/8” wide blade with 2-piece cap iron (makes sharpening the blade a bit quicker).

This size plane is often overlooked as people opt for the longer No.7 Jointer or a shorter 5 1/2. But if you do not wish to go to the length of a No.7 which is 4" (10cm) longer, then the No.6 could be the one at 18" long (45cm). If you have a 5 1/2 and a No.7 already then, this plane is not for you. However, if you just have a smoother then this could be the perfect combo

Original box.

The newer graphite coloured body with standard cap iron and A2 blade is about £375

(If you are on the hunt for a complete set of Clifton Anniversary Bench Planes – please enquire as one complete unused set may be available soon circa £3500 – there are 7 planes in the set and are similar to the specification of this plane)
