Option of an O1 Tool Steel ( O1 TS) blade hardened to RC 62-64 OR a High Speed Steel (HSS) Blade hardened to RC 62.
-
Blade pitch of 55 degrees for superior results on hard, difficult, or reversing grain.
-
Blade is reversible to bevel up, effectively creating a blade pitch of 85 degrees, allowing the plane to be used as a scraper. You get two tools in one!
-
The HSS is ideal if you plan to reverse the plane to bevel up and use it as a scraper on difficult grain because it will hold up better under heat. However, it will take longer to sharpen.
