IBEX VIOLIN MAKERS PLANES - Made in U.S.A.
Precision mini planes get into small spaces.
High quality planes in polished silicon bronze with a convex bottom and screw blade lock for thicknessing arched instrument tops and backs.
Extremely ergonomic and comfortable for long jobs thanks to the comfortable grip.
Rounded bodies with the mouth of the blades positioned forward, ideal for approaching the edges for example in the finishing of the curves, and also having the slightly convex sole, the scraper finish will be cleaner and faster.
Thumbscrew adjustment permits quick blade repositioning or removal for resharpening.
Chrome vanadium blades R60-62 hardness to maintain an extremely thin thickness.
Ibex Finger Planes were designed by pioneering luthier Irving Sloane

Ibex Violin Makers planes
Ibex planes are famous and appreciated all over the world because of a perfect design and because they are made of bronze. The bronze feels nice in the hand and is very durable making easier to work. The Ibex are equipped with an adjustment screw with which you can quickly and easily adjust the blade exit. The steel blades are hardened to Rockwell 60-62, therefore very resistant and this is reflected in the perfection of your work. Ibex planes are supplied as standard with a smooth blade, while toothed blades can be purchased separately. Before starting to work with these planes it is necessary to sharpen the blades.
