I'm seriously thinking of pulling the trigger on the LN 60-1/2R since Woodcraft has them on sale at 20% off. Any thoughts on this plane? I'm interested in it primarily for shoulder work, cleaning rabbets, and general block plane tasks.
My Stanley LA block plane (enhanced with a Hock A2 iron) is a "goto" tool.
Yikes, is it ever a slippery slope! 4 years ago when I got interested in WW, I wouldn't have dreamed of spending a c-note-plus on a hand tool (of course, now a tank of gas for my truck isn't a whole lot less than a c-note).
