The Faithfull 3-in-1 Shoulder Plane (FAIWWBP) is designed for woodworkers needing a versatile tool for cleaning up joints and rebates. Its primary benefit is the ability to function as a shoulder plane, bull-nose plane, or chisel plane, saving workshop space. A key consideration is that the blade requires honing before its initial use. This compact plane features a full-width blade and an easy-to-use knurled adjustment screw.

The main advantage is its versatility, combining the functions of a shoulder plane, bull-nose plane, and chisel plane in one tool, which saves space and offers flexibility for various tasks.
No, the blade requires honing and sharpening before its first use to achieve optimal cutting performance.
You switch modes by removing or fitting the front nose section. Loosen the securing mechanism, swap the parts as needed, and re-secure.
It is ideal for cleaning up tenon joints, rebate work, and cleaning edges or ends in tight spaces where other planes may not fit.
The overall length varies depending on the configuration: 152mm, 97mm, or 87mm. The cutter width is 27mm.
Keep the blade sharp by honing it regularly. After use, clean the blade and apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust, especially if storing for an extended period.
Ensure the blade is sufficiently sharp and properly honed. Check that the blade is set to the correct depth using the knurled adjustment screw and that it is seated correctly.
Ensure the knurled adjustment screw is clean and free from debris. Apply a small amount of graphite lubricant if it feels stiff.
The blade may be too deep or not properly aligned. Readjust the blade depth and ensure it is set parallel to the sole. Check for any nicks or dullness on the blade edge.
Clean the rust off the blade using fine-grade steel wool and oil. Apply a rust inhibitor or light machine oil after cleaning and ensure the plane is stored in a dry place.
Initial Setup: Before first use, the blade will require honing to achieve a sharp edge. Use appropriate sharpening stones to hone the bevel to your desired angle. Ensure the blade is securely fastened in the plane body.
Configuration: To switch between configurations, loosen the securing mechanism for the nose section, remove or attach the desired part, and re-secure.
Compatibility: This plane is designed for general woodworking tasks. It is compatible with most common wood types, from softwoods to hardwoods.
