Lee Valley Japanese Milled-Tooth Extra-Fine Side Plane-Maker’s Float

Produced by the same maker as our Japanese milled-tooth files, this float greatly simplifies flattening and smoothing the complex wedge mortises of bench and molding planes.

It works the sides of the mortise and has curved, milled teeth on one face with a diagonal groove pattern to help minimize clogging.

About 8″ long overall, the blade is 5/8″ wide at the handle, just 1/8″ at the tip, and has a 4″ cut length. It has sharp chemically etched teeth for a smooth cut, and a textured cushion-grip handle.

Made in Japan.
