Why use Old Blades?

Older blades play an essential role in woodworking, especially for those working with vintage planes or restoring traditional hand tools. Many older hand planes, including low angle jack planes, require period-correct blades to maintain their functionality and original craftsmanship. Modern replacements don’t always fit properly, making old blades the ideal solution.

Pairing old blades with traditional woodworking tools helps recreate the high-quality performance that woodworkers have relied on for decades. Using an original plane blade in your bench planes or swapping in a properly sized router plane blade can significantly enhance precision and cutting performance.

Common reasons for purchasing an older blade include:

  • Replacing a missing plane blade in a vintage tool
  • Restoring an antique tool with the correct hand plane blade
  • Replacing damaged or pitted plane blades
  • Keeping spare bench plane blades in your toolbox for future use

At Tool Bazaar, we offer a vast selection of plane blades and router plane blades to fit a variety of woodworking tools. Whether you need a replacement for your low angle jack plane or an extra set of hand plane blades, we have hundreds of options to choose from.
