Straight drawknife and a round spokeshave, like stanley no. 63 and also the type like this:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-JS-S-Wooden-Spokeshave-Plane-/180786472665?pt=UK_Collectable_ToolsHasdware_RL&hash=item2a17b6a6d9#ht_500wt_1378


I don't know what they're called, but could do with one of them

Just to confirm that the Stanley spokeshave has a curved bottom not blade (only really good for shaping shoulders and handles).

Yeah, there is two types, ones like that and the stanley ones and I don't think they're distinguishable by name - I need both.
I know about the stanley 63, Like you said needed for shoulders and handles.
