REED Bronze Knobs
The Bronze knob is a great way to add mass to a plane without changing the form factor. A bronze knob can take a standard plane and make it feel like something special.
The REED Planes Bronze Knobs come in two different sizes. Short and tall.
They are designed to fit standard Stanley planes but can fit others.

A bit about REED Planes:
Reed Planes was developed from my frustrations of using Stanley planes and old tired Norris planes. My goal was to create a handplane that would solve the shortcomings of these planes as well as a way for them to be adjustable due to wear over time. I have adapted many of my improvements for replacement parts that can easily modify a Stanley hand plane.
