HNT Gordon A5 Jack Plane
I got this plane last year and have tried to get the hang if it but it's just not for me.
It has a HSS blade and I got Terry to add the brass insert at the front of the mouth (see photo 4). This enables the plane to make a very fine cut. The RRP for this plane is $375 (with brass insert) + post postage.
Asking $300 including post within aus.

I would be interested to hear what bothered you about the plane. I have been thinking of getting one but have never used a wood plane
thanks

And another question if you don't mind, so typically the jack plane is used for rough sawn work to get a flat board, since you have had the grass insert added it can also be used as a smoothing plane also?
