I'm thinking about upgrading to some modern irons for my Sargent 4xx planes after hearing great things about CPM-Magnicut from Zen Wu and Lake Erie. Has anyone here tried these, or does anyone have experience with Zen Wu's ZW-V0? I'd really appreciate your insights before making a purchase!

While I haven’t used the CPM-Magnicut irons, I've really loved my PMV11 irons. They’ve definitely improved my woodworking experience!
I went with a Hock iron for my #4 plane, and the difference is amazing! It's definitely a step up from the original iron I had.
For me, PMV11 is the best choice! I’ve also heard good things about Hock irons—they work wonders too! Definitely worth considering.
That’s awesome to hear! I've been hesitant about switching, but it sounds like a solid upgrade.
