We can create Custom Crescent, Fish and Pin handplanes using a range of colourful and striking hardwoods. We like to experiment and create unique patterns. If you would like to order one of these Custom handplanes please click ‘Customise’ below to add this to your cart. When you check out we then give you a chance to choose your shape, describe what type of wood or design you would like (based on something you have seen on our website/Instagram) or to get in contact with us and create something new. We will then be in touch to discuss the design based on what we think will work and what hardwoods we have in stock. As with all of our handplanes we can also offer personalisation to your Custom handplane (see below).

The Crescent and Fish are our mid-sized boards, a great all-rounder with a smooth cutaway crescent tail. This handplanes provide a larger surface area. They have a balanced rocker in the nose and smooth, clean rails for excellent hold down the line. The concave throughout the board combined with the natural buoyancy of the wood provides strong lift when pulling into a wave.

The Pin is our longest board and great for all conditions, big and small. This shape provides a long tail with smooth lines and a deep concave. It allows you make the next section as well as hold your line when looking for the barrel. It has a stable rocker in the nose and clean rails to allow for maximum rides. 

The superb water proofing properties of natural tung oil are used to seal each board before it hits the water. All boards come with a hand sewn adjustable strap, attached using our subtle and secure design - unique to Compass Handplanes
