Stanley #10 1/2 Rabbit Plane Stanley #10 1/2 Rabbit Plane   This is one of Stanley's most popular models of rabbeting bench planes, and this example still retains 90% or more of its original black japanning.  The Sweet Heart era cutter is short with only about 3/8" of life left in it.  The throat is perfect, and the sides have been refinished.  There is no major damage, casting chips, cracks, welds, repairs or the like.  It just must have looked bad to the last owner that he lapped the sides and bottom of this 9" plane.  The rosewood handle has a near invisible glue joint 1/2" up from the base.  It is lower than normally seen, and if I did not tell you you would hardly know.  This Sweet-Heart Era  #10 1/2 plane will make a great user so stop using that nice one and put this one back to work.

Stanley 1st Model #10 1/2 Rabbit Plane  These early versions of Stanley's popular rabbit plane were only made for a short 10 year period ending in 1895 or so.  This example is in very nice condition and has no problems with the casting near the cutouts as is often the case.  The front moveable portion is nice and operates as it should.  There is a very small chip in the edge of the throat, and another minute area in the throat that is dimpled in but not cracked.  It is approx 1/8 x 1/4 wide, and this flaw would not interfere with the proper operation and is barely discernable to the eye, but it is there.   The handle and knob are very nice and proper.  Rare!!

Stanley #10 1/4 Tilting Handle Rabbet Plane    Stanley only made these planes for a short 5 year span near the turn of the last century.  This is a nice example and it still retains 90% or more of its original black japanned finish.   The properly marked cutter has over a half inch of usable life left in it.  The exposed metal surfaces have a nice even original patina and the nickers are present.  The one apology is that the rear handle is a good replacement.  It appears that it has been fashioned out of a standard handle, with only the leading edge not having any finish on it after having been cut, being the telling feature or giveaway.  It looks good, and this is a hard one to find!

Stanley #90 Rabbit Plane Stanley #90 Rabbit Plane in Box    This one is earlier that the above one, and is from the 30"s or so.  It has seen little if any use and is minty nice condition.  The Box has been taped.   You will like it.

Good . . . . . $150.00       SOLD









Stanley #92 Rabbit Plane Stanley # 92 Cabinet Makers 3/4" Wide Rabbet / Bullnose Plane   There is nearly an 1" of cutter left, it is marked USA and other than some minor nickel loss this #92  is in very nice condition overall and damage free.  This is the narrow version of Stanley's 90 series of rabbet planes and is just under 5 1/2" long overall and has an 3/4" wide cutter.  Care must be taken when buying these planes as there are a myriad of small things that can go wrong, be broken, or damaged, and these defects are often missed by the uninitiated or inexperienced buyer.  This one has none of those telltale problems with chips, casting breaks, or stripped adjusters.  The previous owner did stamp a ID # up on the nose but this hardly detracts from an otherwise near mint plane.  It is Nice!

Stanley #93 Rabbit Plane Stanley # 93 1" Cabinet Makers Rabbet / Bullnose Plane  This one is as nice as one could ask for.  No damage to the weak areas, and the cutter looks to be full length.

Good . . . . . $245.00       SOLD









Stanley # 94 Cabinet Makers Rabbet Plane   The button up front has the Sweetheart logo thus dating this example from the 20s thru the 30s.  There is nearly an 1" of cutter left, and other than some nickel loss it is in very nice condition overall and basically damage free.  This is the largest version of Stanley's 90 series of rabbet planes and is 7" long overall and has an 1 1/4 wide cutter.  Care must be taken when buying these planes as there are a myriad of small things that can go wrong, be broken or damaged, and these defects are often missed by the uninitiated or inexperienced buyer.  This one has none of those telltale problems with chips casting breaks or stripped adjusters.  It is Nice!

Good . . . . . $325.00       SOLD



Stanley #79 War Issue Side Rabbit Plane    This is the nicest examples of Stanley's popular and versatile all in one side rabbit plane I have ever had.  The original japanning is flawless and it is the hardest and shortest produced of all the models as it was only done in this finish during the war to save on precious metals for the war effort.  Collector Condition!
