I like the lateral adjusting screws on the LV. It also feels good in my hands.
The LN is a heavier, stouter plane IMO but I have issues sometimes on lateral blade protrusion adjustment.

Simple trick that those who have not tried it will condemn, but it seems to work for me and others.
If you want to flush the blade with the left side of the plane, lay the plane, left side down, on your bench or a good flat piece of hardwood and press down. Pick up plane and start using. If it is used against the right side of the plane, do as above with the right side of the plane on the bench or hardwood.
It doesn't get much simpler than this. If you want more blade projection out the side of the plane, use a piece of paper and press the blade into the paper. If more is wanted, make a hole in the paper or use two pieces with one on either side of the blade.
My immediate thought is to throw in a Attachment 369853
Chances are it won't.

The LV large shoulder is one of my favourite tools. I have the original blade, edge keeps very well indeed.
I have sharpened this about twice..once when I bought it, and later about a year ago....still going great.....
