Just starting to get back into woodworking after being away for several years.
Years ago I remember reading about some manufacturer who was selling laminated plane irons with (I think) a layer of very hard steel sandwiched between two layers of tougher but softer steel.
Either that, or I suppose it was just made of two layers - one harder but more brittle layer laminated to a softer, tougher layer. (If it was
3 layers, I guess you'd have to have bevels on *both* sides of the iron.)Anyway, it always seemed like a good idea to me (I have a Swedish Frost's laminated steel hunting knife that cuts like a dream) and I wondered whether anyone here had tried such an iron? Comments?
Thanks,
Col.
