Three Blade Options to Tackle Any Grain
Wood is rarely predictable—it can run long grain, short grain, quarter grain, end grain, or even difficult figured grain. It may be hard or soft, fibrous or dense. MTC low-angle planes are built to handle these variations with ease. The set includes three blades, each providing a different cutting angle: a 25-degree blade for clean end grain work, a versatile 38-degree blade for everyday smoothing, and a high 50-degree blade for dealing with figured or challenging hardwoods.

The 25 Degree Blade
MTC low angle planes are supplied with a 25 degree blade standard. Together with the cast bed angle of the plane of 12 degrees, the effective cutting angle achieved is 37 degrees. Using the block plane, this bevel angle is perfect for shaving across end grain - the short ends of your wood where you are cutting laterally across the grain. End grain can be tough work without the right gear. Your MTC plane fitted with a sharp low 25 degree blade is the perfect tool for this job.
The 38 Degree Blade
Available is a 38 degree blade, add the bed angle and you have an effective cutting angle of 50 degrees. This bevel angle is perfect for smoothing surfaces across or along the grain. Set in the block plane, this blade is perfect for planing fine edges, chamfering and trimming fitted parts.
The 50 Degree Blade
The 50 degree blade produces an effective cutting edge of 62 degrees. This very high cutting angle is ideal for smoothing figured timbers where tear out is a problem. Set in the block plane, this blade is great for working isolated patches of tear out smooth or for shaping delicate decorative pieces made from figured wood.
