The 60 mm wide blade enables quick smoothing of large surfaces. With its 3 mm thick blade and weight of 2.6 kg, it absorbs vibrations and ensures smooth cutting even on difficult grain.
  • More finger clearance on the main handle
  • The 72 mm plane body width provides a large contact surface, significantly reducing the chance of accidental tipping during planing.
DICTUM Bench Planes
The Bedrock design of these planes allows the mouth to be adjusted without removing the cap iron and blade. The rear handle with its width of 26 mm offers a comfortable grip even for large hands. Lateral blade adjustment with side lever. Cutting angle 45°. Delivery includes plane bag made of jute-cotton mix with drawstring.
DICTUM Planes
We have developed our DICTUM plane series based on our Herdim planes. We have been making these planes for decades for our violin makers, who require the utmost precision and perfect workmanship. The solid, stress-relieved plane bodies made from cast steel* with precisely ground soles aligned at right angles to the sides, together with the minimum 3 mm thick blades made from SK4 steel (61 HRC) signify top quality. The planes are also available with a Japanese blade made of Blue Paper Steel (63 HRC) or HSS Cryo (64 HRC). The blade adjuster allows for precise adjustments and the ergonomically shaped handles developed through tests as well as the polished cap irons provide a good grip. Handles of native red beechwood.
