I'm planning on getting a toothed blade. I'm not sure what plane would be the best choice? I have a number of bench planes; #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, (many are $15-$30 yard sale finds I tuned), but do not have a low angle Jack. Is there a "Best" choice I should consider for a toothed blade? My gut tells me a #5 or #6, but I had waffles & bacon for dinner
I work a lot with q-sawn oak that always seems to have reversing or difficult grain and I think a toothed blade would help getting a board in shape or ready for a smoother after glue-ups, etc...
