A unique wedge support developed for these planes is the better solution because it allows shavings to flow freely and it stablizes the cutting iron. ECE Planes are made in Germany.

Model No. 111-S

111-S - ECE German Improved Smooth Plane
This plane doesn't exactly have the wedge, but still fits into this category because it has no depth adjuster. It is equivalent of ECE Primus Improved Smooth Plane, just without the adjuster. Much cheaper and if adjusting the depth by tapping the iron doesn't bother you, think about this plane.
