TerryMcK Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 I have a PMV11 blade in a bench plane and it's great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Wright Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 I have heard nothing but good. I just have not pulled the trigger myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Tony I have probably been using them longer than anyone. They chop. They pare. Excellent steel. Takes and holds a very good edge. Note that the wood I work is extremely hard on edges.

I was just on another wood forum researching shoulder planes and someone pointed towards your reviews.

gee-dub Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 I was already in love after only a few months. A butt chisel was my first "test" PM-V11 tool. This is one of those things where you do not have to be an expert or have a cultured approach to chisels and planes to notice a difference. It is a definite difference. I can get through most of a project before I have to touch up whereas I have my sharpening stuff out and at the ready when doing heavy work with other steels. A2 was an improvement in edge retention but, O1 got so very sharp. PM-V11 seems to do both although I have not gone mad-scientist on it or anything.
