Additional information

Designed and hand-forged in the Auriou workshop, this English-style plane with two bevels is distinguished by its small dimensions and its geometry designed for precise work on small surfaces.

The blade is slightly concave, with a straight edge that facilitates fine adjustments on flat surfaces. Its primary use is pulling towards you, ideal on a planing bench or planing saddle, but it can also be used with caution on a workbench.

Each tool is locally forged from C70 steel using a drawing process, then hardened and tempered for a balance between strength and efficient cutting. The beechwood handles are fitted with solid brass ferrules, offset downwards for a natural grip.

Expertise

Gaignard Millon

Expertise forged through workshop experience: we compare, measure, and test each item on various types of wood. Selection guided by cut, ergonomics, and durability. A standard confirmed by professionals: École Boulle, the Louvre Museum, the Musée d'Orsay. As enthusiasts, we select only the best tools.

Workshop check & sharpening ready to use

Every tool passes through our hands before shipping: visual inspection, geometry, flatness, and deburring. If necessary, we sharpen it on a Tormek system for a consistent angle, and a clean, durable edge. The result: a tool that cuts cleanly right out of the box, with no time wasted at the workbench. Tested on wood, wiped down, protected, you receive a tool ready to work.
