x-acto block plane

[peter havriluk]

I discovered in a shop drawer an x-acto little block plane. Does anyone know whether it's worth the trouble to sharpen the blade and add it to the lutherie toolbox? Hate to ignore a usable tool, hate to waste time on one that ain't.

Thanks!

They are handy for making balsa wood model airplanes

Ken, thanks. I figured as much, but specifically asking gets a solid answer.
