The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other hand tools and workshop hand tools we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The Shop D2674 is a cast iron jack plane listed at $76.49, with a stated weight of 2.37 kilograms, making it a heavy tool by this set's standards. The listing reports material and weight only, with no blade or mouth dimensions.
Its rating is the weak point. At 3.6 stars across 137 reviews it falls below the 3.8 floor we hold across the rest of the site, so it trails every other plane in these rankings on owner satisfaction.
No monthly buyer figure is reported, so demand is unconfirmed. The mass and cast iron build may appeal to some, but the low rating is hard to overlook at this price.

Performance notes
At 2.37 kilograms of cast iron it has real mass for a jack plane, which can help maintain a cut, but the 3.6 star rating suggests owners have found shortcomings the spec sheet does not explain.
