Stanley hand planes #1: After honing the try out

Sound like your hook on hand plane my friend…like I always say “Shaving are Amazing”...lol, that’s a nice collection of plane and they look well cared for as well, enjoy…Blkcherry

No argument here, Ex! Gotta love me those hand planes, especially the old Stanleys. Nice set you have there, too. High knob, low knob, a good block… Don’t recognize the one furthest to the right – which is that?

Well, the Stanley #1 in the title got my attention. I agree 100%

That plane is a Stanley “guage” self setting plane, and it is very inconvenient to “set” but once set it is very nice to use. The steel holds an edge for a lot longer than my other planes.

My local “old wares” shop has some of these for $10 each – think I will grab them now :)

My thoughts exactly when I use mine I seldom use the jointer any more on anything under 3 feet.
