Hi, My name's Larry and I am the delegated scrapyard host for
old metal Stanley planes here on the Wreck. Don't throw them
or throw them away, send 'em here.

60 1/2 is a little more aerodynamic, so you get better length when you
throw it.
They're both junk. Ignore them, get the Lee Valley low-angle. The
quality of manufacture is just incomparably better, A good low angle
will do everything you ask of it. As you think, it's for end grain
where you notice the difference.
