Considered the Rolls Royce of hand planes, a phrase coined in a Fine Woodworking Magazine article in the 1980s. In its day a Norris plane cost 4 times that of a comparable Stanley. The Norris has a much thicker iron and cap iron. It is a heavier plane. Also, the iron sits on wood as opposed to metal. All of these things prevent chatter and create a smoother cut.

This adjuster allowed Norris to outdistance his product from his competitors. It is still copied today.
