Review on Cowryman Handheld Router Plane For Precise And Efficient Woodworking - R022 Plane by Nick Walsh

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Happy with it, glad I bought one.

Very happy with this Router plane. Not a Veritas by any measure but it works just the same. I polished the blade, filed the edges of the base a little, drilled some holes to mount a larger base when needed. Next I will turn some larger handles for it. For the price I am very happy and really it is not that far behind the high dollar routers that I have used. It does its job, does it well, and at a price I can afford. I bought two router planes, three English made handsaws (a panel, a rip, and tenon saw), and an English made mallet for the price of the one Veritas router plane that I was looking at. So your dollar goes a little further to say the least. Way faster to use and set up as opposed to an electric router.

Pros
  • Solid plane, accurate when honed. Worth every penny
Cons
  • The plane's surface is prone to scratches and dents
