>An excellent choice, especially if its your first venture into the world of spokeshaves. It's one of the most used spokeshaves in my rack. Another one to look at is the Veritas flat spokeshave (the one with the higher angle and wooden handles) for later on. It is a good compliment to the low angle and I have ended up using it (and enjoying it) more than I expected.
I've linked Popular Woodworking's tool test page. It has their test of popular spokeshaves. If you haven't seen it take a look. It has good information.

>That shave was the first one I bought.
It's a nice shave and a good first one to buy.
However, it does have some limitations, especially on inside curves. These problems are what prompted me to eventuall expand my shave collection to include convex shaves.
Still I think this is a great first shave. It will perform well, especially for the price.
