Just a heads up to my fellow hand tool enthusiasts...
Some number of months ago I saw talk of Lie Nielsen doing a run of Iron No 3s in the fall (and possibly bronze early 2023?). Since fall hit, I've been periodically (obsessively?) checking the bronze No 3 page on the LN site to see if anything had changed, perhaps backorder options. No activity on that one...but when searching "no 3" in the search on the LN site yesterday I noticed the iron page show up, which was previously not an option. See picture below, with note "[COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.87)]Please note: We will begin production on these planes in the near future. If you are interested in ordering one, please sign up to be notified by email when they are available."
[/COLOR]So for those of you in the market for an LN 3, your day may soon come. Personally, I'd rather have the bronze (which doesn't have a similar note as the iron page), but if I happen to catch the iron in stock, I doubt I'll pass it up.
