A block plane with a blade made of high carbon steel that has been carefully heat treated. The body of the plane is made of fine grey iron casting. Block planes are handy tools for woodworking, particularly for tasks like trimming and smoothing wood surfaces. The use of high carbon steel for the blade and careful heat treatment typically results in a durable and sharp cutting edge, while the grey iron casting provides stability and weight to the tool. Proper care and maintenance of such a tool can ensure its longevity and optimal performance.
