Clifton Planes

Clifton planes are high-quality hand tools designed for precision woodworking tasks. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail and engineering excellence in Sheffield using traditional methods and materials, Clifton planes are a woodworking enthusiast's dream.

With a lineage that stretches back through Clico, Record, C & J Hampton, Woden and back to Edward Preston & Sons of Birmingham, Clifton is truly the final distillation of British handplane making expertise.

Engineered to perfection, every Clifton plane casting is fully annealed, an expensive process that introduces greater stability and strength to the grey iron without any loss of stiffness - critical in an object that you want to remain as true as possible.

Clifton planes provide artisans with superior control and accuracy in shaping and smoothing wood surfaces. Whether it's a smoothing plane, jack plane, or specialty plane, Clifton offers a range of options to suit different woodworking needs. Woodworkers, from hobbyists to professionals, value Clifton planes for their reliability and longevity, making them a coveted addition to any craftsman's toolkit.
