I had the opportunity to witness your talk on the design process at an EAIA meeting several years ago and was very impressed. Can't wait to try it out.

I know the LN 60-1/2 is a popular block plane also, for good reason. But IMO the NX60/DX60 planes are about as close to perfectly designed and built as it gets. Such attention to detail, so comfortable in the hand, and the knurling on the knobs on my DX60? Brings a smile every time I use them.

For those unaware, I wrote a review on this plane in 2008. Along with comparisons with the LN 60 1/2 and LV LA Block Plane.
