Item D5 - Stanley No. 51 Spoke Shave. 

The favorite spoke shave for general work, the Stanley No. 51 features raised, “Gull Wing” handles that keep the hands above the work.  This is an older one, with the arched logo that dates it to the pre-1900 era.  These earlier shaves have a definitely heavier casting than the later ones, and feel good in the hands.  This one  has about 80% of its original japanning, and no chips, cracks or pitting.  The blade is clean.  There is no rust or pitting, but there are some micro-spots of orange paint to clean.  Good+
