Additional information

The Demi-Varlope 62 – Series D (12° angle) is a versatile woodworking and cabinetmaking tool designed to support the woodworking process with flexibility and precision. Its low cutting angle (≈ 12°) gives it a more "open" edge, which facilitates the blade's passage through difficult or sensitive woods, reducing the risk of tear-out and producing smoother surfaces from the first pass.
This model sits between classic roughing planes and finishing planes: it efficiently removes material while leaving a surface ready for further refinement or scraping. The D Series is distinguished by its fine blade adjustment, stable body, and ergonomics designed for both professional workshops and discerning hobbyists.

This plane is particularly suited to users who want a finer and more controlled tool than standard planes, without switching to a plane exclusively dedicated to ultra-fine finishing.

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.
