Just ran across this brand. Looks like middle ground. Better than junk, but not premium. Anyone have any experience?
They use M2 steel which is a bit different. A review of their block plane showed less than wonderful machining. Just from the pictures, I wonder about precision of the pivot of the Norris adjuster. Different from the terrible modern Sweetheart but if just cast seat, may be very sloppy. Their spokeshave look to be much better machined and at least the tightening screw presses on the casting, bit trying to bend the blade like a 151. Designed down under, made in China.
