Can you believe....6 years. Almost 6 years to the date since derek released this review. Look at the nugget of a comment in the review - twice as long as A2, and then I'm not quite able to interpret the comment about O1.

It was easier to pass over this fact at the time because the testing was done on end grain and the plane itself was a distraction (and having bought one while making shootenstein, it was a dandy plane).

I can hardly believe the V11 irons have been out 6 years and it's taken this long for someone to plane a few tens of thousands of feet and really get the detailed dope on it.
