Much appreciated, extra so because it seems you geniunely did not know the product is Hongdui-Katz Moses collab, making it honest. So possibly the best review JKM could've wished for.

Karl, I'm so impressed with the quality of your videos. I particularly like the dual close-ups. I've watched you from the very beginning of your journey, you have gone from a ' maybe watch, to a can't miss a watch. You come across as a very honorable person and for that, you deserve to go from strength to strength. As long as you upload to KZitem I'll be watching you. You have taught me loads and for that I thank you. You might think I'm exaggerating but I'm not. Regards, Fred

Thank you Fred 😊 the edit was tough on this one I'm not going to lie, just myself and Jakob with to phones and a rode mic. Then somehow jumbled it all together on my phone editing software lol 😆 amazing what you can do with a phone nowadays. Your support over the last four years has been very very welcome it's been tough not moving forward as fast as I'd of liked but we can't be everyone's cup of tea can we, I think I'm a niche within the niche of woodworking lol

Hello Karl. I have both the KM17 & the Veritas (with all accessories) closed throat. Additional blades are supposed to be coming for the KM17. They are as good as each other IMHO with the micro adjustment & lower $$ nudging the KM17 as my pick.

Good job Karl. I have a few woodworking tools from Banggood. The fit, finish and quality is hard to fault. It's hard to ignore that kind of quality for the price these tools are going for. Anyway mate, keep up the good work. All the best. I'm off to Banggood to see if I can score a bargain. 😉

The Veritas has a 25mm dept of cut with the depth gauge or 43mm without. I recently compared the two and the Banggood on sale was $C 10 more than the Veritas, with the accessories. Sounds like Axminster has a crazy markup.

I bought one a few months ago and it has a major design flaw, this is because it clamps the thread and not the blade holder. The thread has play in it so the blade moves up and down even when the lock knob is tight and it's getting progressively worse with more use. Veritus or an old Stanley is a much superior design.

Both me and a friend have the exact problem with the first edition JKM router plane (before he added the depth stop) and received no response from JKM when we brought up the problem. Very poor service. We both repaired the threads in the aluminium block with a thread repair kit (Helicoil) which mostly fixed the issue but I definitely wouldn't buy this tool again.

I do not think this tool is a 'copy' of the Veritas router plane other than they both are router planes. I have much respect for Veritas tools and own a few, including their version of a router plane. The Veritas adjustment is 'loose', is difficult to use accurately as there is a good bit of backlash, one MUST remember to push the blade down every time you change the adjustment or it likely did not move at all, though the screw was advanced a half turn. The BangGood tool has a springed detent that looks to eliminate that issue, plus a MUCH better depth adjustment with a scale to give someone an idea of progress. I've the thought I will purchase the BangGood and use the Veritas one as a 'gift' to someone. Mind you...the Veritas version was certainly the best available...until this one came along. -Veteran '66-68

Jesus christ😢, I thought that I had lost the plot for a moment seeing two Karl's in the video 😅. The only thing you forgot about karl is when you get something over the price of £39 then you have to pay vat ( unless we get it from China) who alway's seem to have the item priced on the packaging as around £7 or so regardless of how much we actually paid for it. Happy day's 😂!

According to the website the price includes vat mate so hopefully that's it covered.

@karlpopewoodcraft yeah I know karl, but what I'm getting at is China happens to be the only place that when we buy anything unless its absolutely huge in size, they alway's do anything that they can to help us not to pay vat. If you was to look closely at the packaging and the stamps area etc you will find that the item Value is alway's below the £39 price mark. Hence no vat for us as they proclaim that the item we are receiving is very cheap to purchase!. Happy day's 🤫, but when it comes down to purchasing from the USA or Canada for example we as customers get slapped shitless with the vat. I recently contacted HARVEY about a couple of machines and was gobsmacked with their attitude towards selling outside of the USA, they wanted me to hire a freight agency to deal with everything, by this they wanted me to arrange delivery from their factory to myself and pay for everything plus the vat. My response was colourful to say the least once I got over the shock.

You don’t have a Veritas but claim the HONGDUI is a ripoff design of the Veritas. 🤦♂️How’s this a ripoff when they improved almost every aspect of every router plane? Because the knives mount the same way? They’re all “ripoffs” of the original by that logic. How many different ways are there to design a router plane?
