Bench Plane No.5-1/4
The No. 5-1/4 was often referred to as a junior jack. At 12" long, it fell between the No. 4 smooth plane at 10" long and the No. 5 jack at 14" long.
This extra length of sole in front of the blade makes it much easier to cut accurately because the extra-long nose makes it easier to maintain the sole flush to the material at the start of a cut. In fact, the combination of the mouth location and the very sensitive feed adjustment lets this plane serve as a jointer for most cabinet work, just as a No. 5 is used as a jointer.
The easily adjusted frog is machined to fit snugly in the plane body and, combined with the 1/8" thick A2 tool steel blade, eliminates virtually all blade chatter. Because the frog extends right through to the sole, adjusting the frog to narrow the mouth does not reduce blade support as it does in standard planes of this style.
