I didn't see mention of bandsaws and plug-cutters there.

What about drawknives and spokeshaves? I really wouldn't expect you to have a froe.

I thought they were both rather complete, though I suspect KAC's are much more suitable for me. I'm slightly familiar with a lot of IT's because of the fact that my dad was a carpenter.

But a froe is not a tool name I recognize.

Forgot those, we don't have drawknife, though.

Do have a spokeshave...and I actually know what a froe is for..being a reenactor, I find you learn and collect the oddest bits and pieces of equipment and knowledge...
