Default Jack and smoother...

Hello !

I just received the LV bevel up low angle jack plane


It my first high quality plane am very impressed with the resulting
surfaces
(smooth glass finish) and the reliable control of the planes
adjustements. After flatening a board I have finely adjusted the jack
plane to try and use it as a smoothing plane (on trouble free walnut)
and am so impressed that I am wondering if would see an improvement if
I were to get
with it's bevel-up smoothing brother.


Any thoughts ? What the heck could it possibly do better ?


Eric
