This offering features a vintage Stanley No. 55 Universal Combination Plane, a highly sought after and very versatile tool for intricate joinery and molding work. The plane is accompanied by a substantial collection of its specialized blades, designed for various profiles and cuts. This comprehensive set provides a wide range of capabilities for precision craftsmanship.
Condition
The plane exhibits significant surface rust and oxidation consistent with age and prolonged storage. The metal components show pitting and discoloration. The handles, likely made of a dense fruitwood, display wear, scratches, and some finish loss. The accompanying blades are heavily rusted and will require cleaning and sharpening before use. A small metal accessory is marked "PAT'D. JULY 9, 1901". The overall condition suggests a need for restoration but appears to be complete.
