   Crocus, if you get no advances on your question then take a look at who did the review.....
   I haven't got one , but I bet it is a fine tool as it looks well made and has some improvements on the familiar Stanley and Record one.

   Spectacular tool- don';t know about the review, but I'm in love with mine.

   I pre-ordered and would up with one of the first ones off the lines... Had it since October/November or so.

   Good presence in the hands, blades take a wicked edge (A2 steel), smooth adjustments and the multi-position blade is really versatile. Plus it has a nice fence assembly for grooving and rabbetting. I'm using it more than my laminate trimmer for a lot of jobs now.

   If you think you have a need for a router plane, I can't recommend this one enough.

   The older I get, the better I was....

   Good luck with your router. I have great envy as I have owned the large and small Stanley -nib- for many years and fearing them dropping them like most of their speciality tools, I also grabbed a bunch of irons for both. You will find that in addition to flat bottom rabets the flattening of the background for raised carvings is like magic, especially the nooks and crannies. I hope that LV's next redo is the #140, perhaps with a little more legnth from iron to toe and that it comes to hand better than the original. Enjoy, Pat
