Our favourite things about Luban’s Low Angle Knuckle Cap Block Planes

Superior linishing across all Luban Planes makes the difference. Linishing is the term given to the belt-sanding process that ensures all plane surfaces are flat, dressing the plane surface before selling. If linishing marks are deep, which they are on so many of Lubans competitors, then the plane surface simply isnt flat.
