>I received the HNT Gordon Try plane as a birthday present today

Details, man! Ironwood, ebony, or.... ?

It is an interesting contrast to the heavy and massive #8

Also a fun contrast. I was using both this week, blasting off the high spots on a tabletop and taking it down to level with the #8 and then following with the try plane. Wet sanding from here--going to be a much more boring week.

I love my HNT Gordon too. It feels great in the hands and sounds so sweet when cutting.

Nothing fancy. Just the basic Ironwood.

>Very nice in that. It always boggles my mind a little when Australians say things like 'just ironwood,' 'just jarrah--we use it for packing crates,' or 'just ******; a lot like your willow, but harder, with interlocked counter-spiraling grain and deposits of zirconia in the rays.' Oh, yes--and a late happy birthday....
