Stanley No.2 Plane - Scarce 8" Length Type 19 - Very Good ConditionThis plane has been in mycollection for quite a while. I was going to restore it to new condition butafter cleaning out my collection and finding another, I decided to passthis along.Circa 1955 - 1961. This isthe last production model of the StanleyNo. 2, and it is the more scarce 8" (in length) version. It comes toyou just the way I found it - all I did was dust it off a little. This plane is about asg...ood as they come - 95%+ of the japanned finish remains. The varnish onthe handle and knob are good. There is some minor wear on the handle asshown. The front knob is very good with no chips or dings.The plane has been wellcared for - there is patina and discoloration as shown but no pitting and no surface rust or damage of any kind. Theblade and chip breaker have a patina coating that would mostly polishoff. The lever cap has all of its nickelplating and will polish up very nicely There is a small bit of surface discoloration onthe bottom left side of the cap, most of which should polish off if you choose. The cutter is not sharp but it too has 95% of its original length left. This plane must have beenused a bit and there is a patina on the sole. The adjust knob istarnished but has all of its original finish as do the screws which secure theknob and handle.This is a scarce plane andit is in very good condition and with a little TLC clean up to be excellent. Whether you're looking for a nice addition for your collection or a great No. 2for use, you'll not be disappointed with this one! Thanks for looking, and I hope someone can give this gem a nicehome!Pleasereview all pictures carefully as they are considered part of the itemdescription.
