Kunz #6 Fore Plane
A few hardy souls who have large hands and a lot of bulk regard the #6 as the most useful in the bench plane range which in it's heyday spanned in size from #1 to #8 with several half sizes thrown in for good measure. Kunz is known for its solid planes of wear-resistant grey cast iron with fine-ground soles and good value for money. The standard tool-steel blades are hardened to approx. 62 HRC. For planing extremely hard woods, durable HSS blades (approx. 65 HRC) are available as accessories. Their epoxy-coated green surfaces make the Kunz planes, made in Germany, unique.
Blade width 60 mm, Blade thickness 2,5 mm, Length 450 mm, 2750 g.
