Review on Woodworking Tool: Cowryman Router Plane Handheld For Precision Carpentry Projects by Chris Tisdale

Revainrating 3 out of 5

If you have big hands, this may be too small to use.

I've been looking for one of these for a long time. Used it for the first time today to clean out some mortise joints. It works well but could be better. For one the two handles are way too small. I could only get my ring and pinky fingers around them and I have small hands. This makes it difficult to hang on to it well. Also, once you set the depth I strongly suggest that you tighten the wing nut with pliers. Hand tightening alone won't hold the blade in place. I am not sure just how long this wing nut will hold. This could have been designed better.
