The Adjustable Block Plane by E.C. Emmerich is a well-crafted light plane for smaller jobs. This wooden pocket plane combines the functional benefits of a metal block plane which we are all used to with the hard-to-describe pleasure of working with a nicely made wood plane. The blade is 1 1/2" (39mm) wide and is bedded at 50 degrees. This plane has a 6" hornbeam body and a premium lignum vitae sole. Features an exclusive adjustment control to set the iron for precision cuts. Crafted in Germany. View Traditional Woodworker's Entire Selection of Planes, Spokeshaves & Scrapers. E.C. Emmerich Tools
This famous tool company traces it's roots back to 1852 when master craftsman, Friedrich-Wilhelm Emmerich, founded E.C.E. in Remscheid Germany. Back in those days, most cabinet makers made their own tools. Friedrich made such fine planes that his colleagues offered to buy them for their own use. Soon the founder and his son Max, had to leave their small workroom and build a plant to meet the demand for their planes. Today, E.C.E. is still owned and run by the Emmerich family of craftsmen in the same town.
