The "Instrument Maker's Carving Plane" reminds me of a similar tool that a ran across some time ago. The difference is that the tool cut on the pull stroke. Should have bought it at the time as I now can't remember who has it. Can anyone help me out here?

I have a set of the blue handled Marples chisels also. They seem to hold an edge pretty decently and mine came off E-Bay at a very reasonable price. I also use a sharp pocket knife. Had an old Case knife that finally ran out of blade from being sharpened. Ended up replacing it with a Bokker 'Tree' knife after reading "Clapton's Guitar". I'm pretty happy with it. I'm going to check out the "Instrument Maker's Carving Plane" -- looks to be a handy tool.
