Although it may seem that Veritas are producing planes to fill very small gaps in the market, it is nothing to what Stanley got up to in 80 + years of trying to make every conceivable plane for every conceivable occasion.
Seems to me that Veritas are only thinking about reproducing the best of those Stanleys; which is sensible given the cost of producing a new design. If nobody buys it they're knackered.

Shooting begins with any old square sided plane followed by a skewed plane, then a mitre, then a skewed mitre, a dedicated shooter and then a dedicated skewed shooter. ... Did I miss anything? Mitre chopper maybe.

At the moment I am mid way in this list by using a straight mitre (Veritas low angle 'smoother') and get along just fine.

I can think of a lot more interesting things to spend money than woodwork tools and Japanese swords

I would be very interested in hearing what some of your chosen items might be?
Nothing out of the ordinary - high heel shoes, back copies of the Beano, rubber gloves, other odds and ends.

Jacob in high heels .... mmm ..... surely never in the workshop? :lol:

Don't put ideas in his head Derek, it's bad enough sharing a workshop in this weather with his knobbly knees poking out of his shorts. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cheers.
