I just purchased my planes, and guess I was still relying on the fact that LN came sharp and ready to use. Where I really have trouble with tear out is where the grain is going in a lot of directions… like around a knot. I have both a 45 deg and a 50deg frog on my 4 1/2, and seem to have better luck with the 50. But like I said, I’m gonna break out the stones more, and follow the practice advice ya’ll suggest. Thanks All
