Okay. Credit where it's due. THIS model from THIS company is a reasonably-high-quality tool. I was given a similar product - also a Chinese offering, by a friend to review (see pics 2,3,4, on right each time) a while ago. It was complete garbage. There's no name on it (not that I fault them for that. I wouldn't take credit/blame for it either), or I'd warn you off. Then, a few weeks ago, this Hongdui was recommended to me. To be clear: I bought this with my own money, no sponsorship, no pressure. And yanno? I'd put it up there with anything Stanley's put out in the last couple decades. Compare the two units below (pic 2, 3). Now, ignoring the fact the Hongdui lacks a spirit level (which are A. Utterly worthless for this type of tool, and B. In this case about 15° crooked anyway [pic 4]. Like my Sjobergs bench is that outta kilter. Riiiiight), you can see plainly that they replaced that uselessness with some quality-engineered UTILITY. I ran both tools through 24 board feet of Padauk, until I achieved a 1/4" chamfer, as well as a 1/4" round over (for the Hongdui. generico is straight edge only), call it 5 rounds for the POS, and, since I did both on the Hongdui, 10 rounds. That's 240 board feet vs 120. Examine pic 3. The Hongdui is on the left: not a scratch. The "other guy" looks mauled. The indexable carbide cutter on the Hongdui (which it comes with ONBOARD STORAGE for the INCLUDED REPLACEMENTS for) is still going strong. I had to take apart the other halfway through to resharpen it. That's right: "re-". I STARTED with fully shaping, lapping, honing, and stropping it. On Trend diamond plates and finishing with Sharpton glass, then stripping on a Worksharp. I believe it's a Rockwell 8? Maybe 9? I know I have talc that holds an edge better. In short: if you decide you simply must have a bevel plane, buy the Hongdui (unless you wanna pay for shipping, in which case I'll GIVE you the paperweight). It was engineered and built by someone with know how.

Q: does it come with the knob and piece to attach to miter slot?

BG151337173 Thiiiis looks like one of those products that was copied without the seller really grasping what the purpose of the tool IS. No, there's nothing to suggest it comes with the knob or the miter bar. Moreover if you look at one of these next to a real hedgehog, you'll see where the plastic is almost 50% thinner. A feather board's purpose is to exert lateral force on the workplace into the fence. To do this it needs three things. 1. A rock-solid point to Index off of (the miter slot) and 2. Stiffly rigid, but still slightly malleable fins or "feathers" and 3. a means of tightening it firmly to fit your Workpiece dimensions. The lack of both the bar and the knob kill items 1 and 3, and the flimsiness of the remaining build suggests to me that even if you add your own, it will only work for a short time, and that only because the full structure will flex, not just the fins. Maybe you're thinking that is fine. It's affordable, right? Just remember: kickbacks carry about half the force of a 9mm round at point blank. How much would YOU trust it?
