- Expert Endorsement: Chris Schwarz says: โIf you work with exotic woods, the nasty, stringy stuff that no plane can tame, then the S20A will handle exotic woods with no hassle. The higher pitch allows you to easily get the plane up to high planing angles (up near 60ยฐ counts as high in my book) without sharpening radically high angles on the iron. I have a 40ยฐ secondary bevel on the iron right now, which is easy to achieve with standard equipment. Add the 20ยฐ from the bed of the tool and Iโm planing at 60ยฐ with little effort. And high angles are great for both difficult tropical woods and even irascible domestics.โ
- Uncompromised Quality: Marcou’s cabinetmaking and machining sensibilities make this a tool of few (if any) compromises. The dovetails are seamlessly tight, the knurling on the knob is crisp, and the parts slide together in Swiss-watch fashion โ the way the lever cap goes into the plane body is truly a marvel. All in all, no disappointments.
