Anyone with feedback on Groz Jack and/or Smoothing planes? I'm considering buying after looking at them today at the Rockler Co. retail store in Tukwila, WA. They're made in India
TIA

Nope, that's not me...
I recently bought the low angle block plane. I would say the fettling will be pretty lengthy from initial inspection.
I have thrown up some photos here.
The blade will take some time to take the machining marks off.
The sole needs lapped as there is a visiable bump at the troat.
Somewhere between .002 and .003 need to be removed to flatten it. Bugbear has a site which details drawfiling which would make short work of that process.
