Hock Plane Irons, Scrapers, and Knives
Ron Hock has earned an international reputation for the quality of his plane blades. Using the same basic principles that made 19th Century edge tools so great, Ron Hock is carrying on this tradition of craftsmanship in the 21st Century. Using a premium grade of high-carbon tool steel and A2 cryogenically treated steel, Ron Hock crafts a line of replacement plane blades for Stanley style woodworking planes. Of course you can use these plane and spokeshave blades in your own special projects as well. We guarantee that you will find Hock plane blades to be significantly better than most original equipment plane irons. We also offer an exclusive line of Ron Hock parallel irons made specifically for infill planes such as Norris and Spiers planes. This line is available only at The Best Things.
Many Hock blades are Made in the USA, but some of the most popular Hock blades are now outsourced to France. Our Hock infill plane blades are all made in Ron Hock's own factory in California.

Parallel Irons for Norris and Other Infill Type Planes
We stock parallel (refered to as gauged by the British) irons custom made for us by Hock. Original irons were hand made and individually fitted when new, which is why many manufacturers numbered the irons to the plane. Our Hock irons are available in 5 widths and 2 thicknesses in both standard and A2 versions. These should cover most every plane out there, but in some cases will require some fitting on your part. If you desire a very tight mouth, you will probably need a 3/16" iron, and if it is too thick, you will have to remove some metal from the back of the iron with a belt sander or grinder. These irons are very hard and that could be a tedious process.
