They look very nice indeed.

Now I am just as culpable as the next man when it comes to shiny tool purchases, but, is it my eyes or are they identical? Surely you don't need two identical tiny shoulder planes?

Or are they handed? ;)
 
I couldn't resist and ordered mine last Friday, shipped yesterday. Any idea how long it took via UPS from when it shipped to when it arrived?

There are two and yes they are identical - one of them is for my son for Christmas.

Well I see it mainly as a novelty that may have occasional uses.
