Low angle?
Have I read it wrong, or does the attack(blade) angle of 52.5 degrees on the bridge city plane make it a higher blade angle than a garden variety stanley (45deg) and getting close to the HNT Gordon angle of 60deg?
Specifications
Weight: 5lbs+
Length: 10.8"
2.76"
5.65"
Sole Length: 9.35"
Cutting 2.1"
Attack Angle: 52.5 Degrees
(22.5 Degrees Bed, 25 Degrees Primary Grind, 5 Degrees Micro-Bevel)
