LIE-NIELSEN
TOOLWORKS began in 1981 as an effort to make top-quality hand tools
available again from a U.S. maker and to revive discontinued, but
useful, designs so the average woodworker could obtain them.
Today we make over 50 types of planes, saws, spokeshaves, chisels,
floats and more. We have improved and refined designs, and use better
materials like Ductile Iron and Manganese Bronze for castings and
cryogenically treated A-2 Tool Steel for the blades. Our plane blades
are much thicker than those of any other production planes. The quality
of machining and finishing results in a tool that looks as great as it
works, and will be a pleasure to use for years to come.
