>What are some common profiles for thumb planes? I was in Phoenix recently and stopped at St. James Bay. They had a few on display, mostly of the flat, hollow and round variety, and said the complete set was quite a few in number. Kingshot, in one of his videos, showed a set of Japanese-made miniatures. Whalen's book only has two profiles.

>Flat, convex and round or bowl shaped are the only ones I know about. If I remember correctly Mr. K was showing his violin planes.
