Has anyone seen the tiny, curved bladed LN plane Chris Schwartz raved about in the new Popular WW?

Bob,

I have the new LN "tiny" plane, but it does not have a curved blade. Not sure if we are talking about the same plane. The one I have is somewhat like a finger or model makers plane. It works well for some applications.

Hi Brian,

Nope, I saw that one, looks to be the same size but this one has a curved blade. There's nothing on the LN site about it. :confused:

If you are asking about the scrub plane:

I have it and it does a nice job scrubbing rough stock to a more manageable size. BTW: It is not a "tiny" plane, just smaller than most.

Michael,

Nope, not a scrub plane. Actually, I called LN and though reviewed in Popular Woodworking, it is not available yet. It is similar to their model maker's plane, but with a convex blade.
