As usual, it was a delight to open the package. From opening the box, a quick inspection, popping the blade in and taking shavings takes only a few seconds and then I’m wearing the biggest smile of the day. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback Gary. We know the feeling! Every plane gets a quick test run before we wax the blade tip and package them up for their first woodworking adventure out in the real world.
