Hey guys and gals. Here is another fine plane from my collection that I am offering up for sale. This is a MASSIVE shoulder plane, it is 9” long, 1 1/2” wide and weighs over 4 lbs. The solid brass body is in remarkable condition, as is the steel sole. It has very little wear. The back of the plane has a few dings from striking to loosen the blade. The rosewood infill is in fantastic condition with beautiful grain. It is very tightly stuffed. The wedge is I believe boxwood or possibly maple. It too is in great condition and holds the blade very snugly. The Marples blade has 1 3/4” of life left, likely almost full. I’m not 100% sure who made this plane, but it is likely H. Slater or possibly Miller. The body has no makers mark. The mouth is quite tight and I have flattened and honed the blade. It takes very fine whisper thin shavings very easily. I have included lots of pics, but feel free to ask questions.
Asking price for this plane is $380, which I think is very fair for a premium infill plane. Similar planes sell for $500 to $600 and up online.
I have many other planes, saws, braces, bits, and marking tools that I will be listing in the future, so if you are looking for something specific, let me know and I can certainly help you out. I can work out better prices on multiple tool purchases as well.
Thanks for looking!
