5.0 out of 5 stars Very fast...., January 9, 2005

By	KRASSEL (SPANAWAY, WA USA) - See all my reviews

I also have this planes little brother (see review) and like its little brother, I really love this tool. For initial smoothing on a board face it pretty much is my tool of choice. It has a long enough footprint to work well as a smoothing plane, especially on highly figured hardwoods. The multiple cutting edges glide thru those hard to cut knots and wild grain patterns, leaving a pretty smooth surface that your smoothing plane can finish up with ease. For initial shaping and round overs it is the weapon of choice and you can really remove a lot of material quickly and effortlessly, maintaining control the whole time. This is a very useful and inexpensive tool and I recommend it to all woodworkers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable., August 11, 2002

By	R. Blais "A movie nut." (Fernley, NV USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

For any kind of wood shaping or removal, this tool will get the job done in record time. I use it in my shop on the sailboat I am building... Lots of pieces of this boat need to be trimmed, shaped, planed, etc and the surform shaper makes quick work of it. Plus, you get a highly aerobic workout! Buy one now, and make sure to get an extra blade or two.

2.0 out of 5 stars Handle broke on first use, August 9, 2007

By	H. Singh (Santa Clara, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Handle broke the first time I used it. I was still able to use it, but the handle is pretty weak. Blade worked fine though.
