Lie-Nielsen planes on Ask This Old House!

>I saw an episode of Ask This Old House today, and Tom Silva did a segment on hand planes. The planes he was using were all Lie-Nielsens (!), although not explicitly identified as such.
He was basically talking about hand planing in carpentry work, such as using one to adjust the fit of a door being hung. But apparently he uses a Lie-Nielsen bronze low angle block plane to do so. As he held one up, he said, "I always keep one of these in my pocket."
The segment was only a few minutes long, which reminded me of an old Woody Allen routine that he did way back when he was a standup comedian. "I took a speed reading course. I was able to read War and Peace in just two hours. It's about Russia."
