The Makita KP0800 is a powerful and accurate handheld woodworking planer built for both precision trimming and heavy stock removal. Despite its high performance, it remains remarkably light and easy to control. It features micro‑adjustable depth control, a spring-loaded sole, and a fine-profile grip for excellent ergonomics. With an 82 mm wide cutter block and shallow depth cut, it delivers clean planing lines—while still accommodating a maximum rebate (shiplap) depth of 9 mm. Its 6.5 A / 620 W motor spins the cutters at 17,000 rpm for rapid material removal. Available in both 110 V transformer-safe (KP0800/1) and 240 V mains (KP0800/2) versions, this tool suits both site and workshop setups.
