I actually loike the looks of those planes...might even buy one! The look FAST! But more important are the reviews that place them a step above! Remember the edsel...who wouldn't want one of them now?

Shane,

I'd want an Edsel now, but not because they were good cars! :D

See Pat, that is the added bonus!! These ARE great little planes, and if the looks sink them (I don't at all think that they will) they will indeed be something you wish you had bought!

Like you said, Shane, they look pretty fast, too fast for me! For awhile I think I'll stick with my pokey old leather-boot Stanleys and leave those fast Nike LVs to the young 'uns. Then maybe I can afford to pad my stash with more Lutz! [:Y:]

At first those planes weirded me out. But as I think about it, non-functional design embellishments on tools are nothing new. I'll grant that they are original.

Think of what Ernie Fossellius could have done with those if they had been around 30 years ago!
