Hand Tool
The traditional jointer hand plane is commonly known as a Stanley no. 7 or Stanley no. 8, though their are other other brands, like Millers Falls these never received the market penetration that Stanley hand in its glory days. These planes have very long soles that keep the blade cutting as flat as possible,
