Okay folks, I know how we all love give each other advice on what to buy next so here's the situation. My fiance just gave me a gift card for $150 to spend on a hand tool of my choice. The core hand tools that I currently own and use are as follows: A Baily style No.4, a Bedrock style No. 6, an LN dovetail saw, an LN crosscut tenon saw, a Ryoba saw and my set of chisels.
So the truth is I've already more or less decided that I can no longer do without a Low Angle Block Plane. At this point I'm 90% certain that I will be getting the LV LABP. My main reason for choosing this one is all the cool accessories. I do however have one question/concern. While I know this is very individual, can anyone out there comment on how the LV LABP feels for one-handed use? I'm a pretty big guy with size L mits, but have always wondered if at the end of the day the LV LABP is really a two-handed plane.
Of course, I could get the Apron plane and then still have money left over for the small router plane. Or I could just buy the large router plane instead. Or I could buy the medium shoulder plane. Or I could put the money towards a low angle Jack, Or maybe towards an LN No 9 miter plane, Or...
So many tools, so little cash.
Any and all suggestions of what I should put the $150 towards are welcome!
