Today I came across a couple of plane irons for which I have no idea as
to their origin, and can't find plane bodies to fit them. One is a
Steiner & Sohne skewed and tapered iron 55mm wide, the other a 1-9/16
Henry Boker iron which looks like it might have come from a wedged block
plane. So the question - apart from where did� they come from? and where
do they go? - is whether this is a sign I have too many tools in the
cave? Not exactly too many tools, which makes no sense, but too many
tools for my aging brain to keep track of, even with the help of tailed
remembering and calculating and doing-all-manner-of-things machines, of
which I may well have too many. Please advise.
Don
