It is a reliable choice for general smoothing and fine finishing, delivering a smooth finish from the first pass. The low cutting angle lets the blade cut cleanly through the fibres, taking fine shavings and handling awkward end grain. Increasing the bevel angle on the blade gives you even better control over tear-out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned and developed by professional woodworkers in the UK, the No.4 takes its cues from classic planes and updates them for real workshop use. It is simple to set up, easy to adjust and satisfying to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow cutting angle cuts cleanly through the fibres, takes fine shavings and handles awkward end grain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpright, lightly oiled maple tote mounted to the angled cast body helps you keep steady downward pressure through the cut.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eErgonomic tote shape gives a natural hold that suits all hand sizes and reduces fatigue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle cap iron keeps setup simple.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNorris-style adjuster sets blade depth and angle with one control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable mouth lets you move from heavy cuts to fine finishing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.2mm thick cryogenically hardened M2 HSS blade is tough, wear-resistant and handles difficult grain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWell balanced for long sessions at the bench.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral smoothing and final finishing of timber surfaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnd grain work and awkward, difficult grain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFurniture making, cabinet making and joinery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWoodworkers building or upgrading a hand plane kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Choose the Rider No.4?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost smoothing planes put the handle at the traditional angle. Rider sets the maple tote more upright and mounts it to an angled casting, so your push goes down into the cut as well as forward.
