Lie-Nielsen No.60 1/2 Block Plane

Product Description

The Lie-Nielsen No. 60½ Block Plane is based on the legendary Stanley No. 60½. This low angle block plane from Lie-Nielsen is a superb little tool for any toolkit — ideal for trimming end grain, chamfering edges, and general fine-tuning.

• Adjustable Mouth – The movable front shoe lets you open or close the mouth easily: fine for delicate finishing, wider for more aggressive cuts.

• Premium Build – Ductile Iron body, surface ground to within .001" for flatness and squareness.

• Comfortable & Accurate – The large bronze cap is tensioned with a 1½" brass spinwheel, while a captive nut controls the blade precisely with minimal backlash.

• Blade Specs –

  • 1-3/8" wide, 1/8" thick

  • Bedded at 12º for effortless end grain work

• Dimensions & Weight –

  • Length: 6¼"

  • Width: 1¾"

  • Weight: 1.5 lbs

Optional Accessories:

• Standard Replacement Blade – Always useful to have a spare.

• Toothed Blade –
  Perfect for tough, figured grain. Features .030" wide teeth spaced .030" apart, ideal for rapid stock removal.
  Note: Take care around knots and softwood defects — the fine teeth can be vulnerable. Lie-Nielsen recommends honing a secondary bevel of 30º or higher depending on the wood.
