Veritas Block Plane Accessories  (Ref: blockaccessories)

For retrofitting to the Veritas low-angle block plane, you can choose a vertical tote or ball tail style of handle. Though the low-angle plane can be used with the ball tail alone, full benefit is obtained when you add the tall front knob. The vertical tote provides a comfortable, firm grip for greater leverage and, with the tall knob, you can bear down quite heavily. The grips are made of bubinga wood. Totes are available in small or large, to suit a range of hand sizes.
