    Japanese hand planes

    Hey guys. I was thinking about picking up a couple japanese planes. I have seen some used and seem to like the outcome (as well as wanting to try something new). I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these tools and the proper way to sharpen them.

    older woodriver planes?

    Anybody know anything about them? I know Woodcraft sells some as an in-house brand now, but I came across a couple bronze planes stamped Wood River that look older, and I can't find any info on them. They don't look like part of the current Woodcraft offering.

    What wax for hand planes?

    I'm not talking about the "prevent rust" wax job, I'm talking about the "it's getting harder to push so it needs some wax on the sole" wax.:icon_thum I've seen paraffin mentioned and also seen some kind of sticky paste wax used. What do all you hand tool aficionados use?:dontknow:

    wooden hand planes - Forest, VA CL

    Not mine. He's asking $20-25 each, but (and I quote) "will offer as sets first for a good deal". No idea if that's a good deal, I'm more of a metal planes kind of guy. If it's a super deal though, I want a finder's fee :). http://lynchburg.craigslist.org/tls/1664142945.html
