Like our Low Angle Bench Planes, these planes all have the blade bevel up. Low Angle Block planes have the blade bedded at 12Â°. We grind a 25Â° bevel on our block plane blades. This works well in low angle planes for end grain and general purpose work. Standard angle block planes have the blade bedded at 20Â°. The bedding angle, plus the bevel angle, equal 45Â°, which is the same cutting angle as a bench plane and gives a very good finish on flat and difficult grain. Higher cutting angles will give excellent results in difficult or highly figured woods.
If you took the same knife and sharpened it only on one side, one side would be flat (0 degrees) while the other would have a normal 15 degree angle. As a result the knife blade would have a 15 degree inclusive angle instead of 30 degrees for the same base steel, or in other words it's twice as sharp for the same price. Single-beveled knives also take less time to sharpen since the flat side only requires a small amount of work compared to a regular bevel. The disadvantages are that it takes practice to learn to cut straight with a single-bevel knife, and the knives are specifically left or right handed.
