A twenty-seven-foot-long jointer plane that would flatten the Rocky Mountains in three passes!

Okay, a 27-inch jointer that will flatten most boards a woodworker is likely to encounter. #getreal #planetruth #hashtag

A stunning HNT Gordon custom-build, Australian Bull Oak jointer plane. Box signed by the maker, Terry Gordon. This razee-style plane is unreal. Well, no, it’s real. We mean it’s unbelievable…ugh, do we have to explain everything? We’ll just let the plane do the talking since it’s much more captivating than our gibberish.

One final note: if you have not yet had the pleasure of pulling translucent-thin shavings with an HNT Gordon wooden plane, boy are you in for a treat! Using an HNT Gordon hand plane is best described simply: pure bliss. Really. Not kidding this time.

Okay, one more final note: If it wasn’t obvious, the plane is dead mint, unused, with the iron still in its plastic wrap.

Final-final note, we swear: With a Norris-style adjuster on this 27” beast, even you can f^@% up the setup. It’s a breeze!

Holy guacamole! That tote is out of this world! And appears original. This is, quite possibly, the most bitchin’ 603 ever. Missing a bit of its original japanning right in front of the mouth. But who cares? Look at that plane! It’s fantastic.

Ships to you exceedingly well-packed, insured, and looking like a supermodel. Like Hansel, that 603 is so hot right now.

Excellent pre-war Norris smooth plane. But for a small chip on the right side of his tote, the furniture on this guy is totally intact and awesome. Please don’t say anything to him about the pitting on his cheeks. He had a rough bout with acne in his teenage years (around 100 years ago) and he’s still self-conscious about the scars. We told him to wear ‘em with pride because it makes him a badass. He’s coming around to the idea, but not there yet.

Ships to you exceedingly well-packed, insured, and ready to rumble. Badasses rumble, right? Fonzie said so.

If they made hand planes for royalty, we think they’d probably look a lot like a Miller’s Patent 41 (or 42). Almost too fancy for woodworking. Almost.

This fancy example has an original fillitster bed, later-type fence and a full set of Miller’s Patent cutting irons in their original box (minus the box top). Some of the irons have been user-modified with some extra grinding on one side that either doesn’t change the width or changes it very little. The exception is a 7/16 iron that is ground on both sides down to approx. 3/8. But, best news ever! There’s an extra, unaltered 7/16. That means you get 11 irons (including the fillister iron in the plane) for the price of 10! That’s even better than getting a 13th donut free when you buy 12. But don’t tell the clerk at Dunkin’ Donuts we said that. We don’t want to hurt his feelings and we appreciate that he knows our coffee order by heart.

So say “yes” and get excited for this beauty to show up at your house. The day it arrives, you become Royalty living not in a humble “house,” but in a Grand Castle. If the neighbor kids laugh at you, just banish them from your kingdom.

Ships to your castle carefully packed and insured.

We often wonder at night if H. Slater might be related to A.C. Slater of Saved by the Bell fame. We could easily find out the answer is “no.” But we prefer the mystery and intrigue.

This might be the coolest infill smoother we’ve had our hands on. Sure, Norris planes are great and all. And yeah, Spiers, Mathieson, Preston - all wonderful tools. But this one has a certain je ne sais quoi about it.

Cast steel body, 7-1/2” tapered sole, rosewood infill and wedge. 2-1/4 C. Nurse iron, slightly spalled. Marked H. Slater, Maker, London on the wedge. Light corrosion on the cheeks. Slight wiggle in the front bun that we left alone. Mesmerizingly nice rosewood.

Planes marked H. Slater with a wedge held by lugs are few and far between (that’s how we say it’s rare without using the r-word).

Ships excessively well-packed and insured. That’s like wearing a belt and suspenders.

Stunner example of a Norris A-71 Beech jack-size plane. Comes in at about 17-1/4”. Iron and chipbreaker likely original. Iron has more rust than ideal and some pitting. Wood overall in excellent condition - very well preserved. Sole and mouth in good shape, though flatness not checked.

Have a nice relaxing day at the beech with this beautiful plane! It’s an inanimate object and even it’s cringing at our total failure at puns. Oh well, we’ll try again tomorrow.
