This plane is out of stock at LN and has been for some time. It is not in the Core or Core 2 tools, so who knows when it will be back in production. The last listed price is $295, but I believe that price is at least a year old, if not older.
This one is in excellent shape with the only apologies being a couple of very small dents in the knob. I acquired this plane from a woodworker, but his sharpening skills were lacking to say the least. The original 25* grind was still on the plane, but he had a long "rounded" irregular bevel on the edge that was at least 40*. In order to rectify that I brought the 25* bevel on out and honed a 30* secondary bevel that is very sharp. The back of the blade near the edge has been flatted, though it seemed in pretty good shape before I honed the blade.
Price is $295, plus shipping. Yes, that is the last retail price, but this one is available and you save sales tax. And, it comes with a Highland Hdwe sock!!
Payment by personal check or Zelle.
