I've got several projects coming up that a plow plane would be very handy. A few years back I came across a 21 piece blade set for a stanley 45, I called veritas and they said the blades will work but the originals are shorter than theirs but will work.
My question is would it be worth getting the new veritas or a good stanley 45? Most all of my work will be with grain but the 45s have the knicker for cross grain cuts.
