Review: Works good out of box - When it comes to this Stanley hand plane I have no complaints I've had it for 2 years now and it was sharp out of the box I use it almost every day for the money for somebody on a budget starting out woodworking it is your best block plane that you can buy out of the box it's Sharp you can work with it right off the bat and know that you won't have to sharpen it right away good quality blades flattened right out of the box it is the best hand plane you can buy when you're on a budget even for somebody like me that doing woodworking for 27 years now and haven't used hand tools much but need a new block plane and it's the best one I ever bought
Review: Sharp! - This little guy is an excellent value. It was smaller than I expected, but gets the job done. The only disadvantage is that because of the small size, my hands start to get sore after a half hour or so. But the blade was nice and sharp right out of the box and the factory adjustment was pretty good--took a nice clean ribbon off a pine 1x6. I was pleasantly surprised when it did the same with 5/4 cherry. I've had a little trouble in areas where the grain isn't clean, but that might be more a case of deficient operator skill. The blade held its edge through three weeks of moderate use, and was easy to re-sharpen (with the Scary Sharp method). I was so impressed with the re-sharpened blade that I ended up shaving all the hair off my left forearm. Had to wear long sleeves for a couple weeks. But I digress...excellent little plane, especially for the money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this have a chipbreaker?**
A: No.   Not like my larger planes.   But,  with the micro-adjust brass screw,  you can take very fine bites so it doesn't matter.   I own about 8 to 10 planes and this one works as well as any other.   I love this little one for quick or small jobs.   Well built and steady.

**Q: I cannot figure out how to put this together, are there any directions online?**
A: Try this link http://tooltrip.com/tooltrip9/stanley/stan-bpl/benchplanes.pdf   If it doesn't work, search for Stanley plane instructions. You have a 12-220 block plane. You will need to sharpen the blade before using. Many complain about this but it's no big deal - if you are going to use a plane, you better know how to sharpen the blades.

**Q: Can I use this to shave the bottom of my wooden doors to shorten the height?**
A: Yes. Make sure the door is stable before using a good plane. Be careful when nearing the outer edges of the door to avoid tear out. Avoid this by clamping a 2X4 or scrap piece of wood at least the same thickness as the door on both ends.

**Q: What do these (14.9 x 5 x 0.6 inches) measurements refer to?**
A: Good question,  because that's not the correct size of this plane. It's 9 3/4" long and 2 3/4" wide and 5" tall.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Value
*by J***L on May 3, 2022*

Solid, simple casting of sole and lever cap. The adjustment mechanics are pressed steel which can be expected at this price point. The mouth is fixed and does not adjust. I expected that a bit of "tuning" would be needed when I received the plane so no surprise there. The sole was not flat but after using some 220 grit and then some 1000 to finish, it was made flat and square in under 30 minutes. The iron was fairly sharp but not razor sharp. Sharpening was fast but a bit too easy. The iron felt "soft" when compared to my vintage planes. I suspect that it will not hold the edge well but only time will tell. At <1/2 the cost of a Lee Valley or Nielsen, it is well worth it even if you decide to replace the iron with a vintage one or higher quality one (Veritas iron is $35) at some point. I'd recommend this plane to all but the highest end users. **One note. If you look carefully, there are 2 different plane models on Amazon's page. On has a small front knob, the other does not. You will receive the one without the front knob.
