I use a 97-1/2 pretty often to flush dowels and other features. Every once in a while I wish I had the larger No. 97 to use on larger features. It's never been a need so I am unwilling to pay what they go for on eBay.
If you have one that you aren't using please let me know. I'd like to buy it, or if you prefer, trade something for it. Plus I have a few original blades for the plane so if you have a blade-less body (a long shot, I know) I'm interested in that too.
Thanks,
Woody
