CP5 - Stanley No. 18 Block Plane. Type 2 (1889-1893)
Stanley first supplied its popular No. 9 1/2 adjustable block plane with a
knuckle-joint lever cap about 1888. A year later they included the lateral
lever with the basal circular disk, creating the "type 2" version. This example
has that lateral lever, and all of the other characteristics of the earlier type
1. The plane is in very decent condition, with 90 percent japanning, long blade
with the J logo mark, and the knuckle joint lever cap with the 1886 patent
date. Much of the nickel remains on the back part of the lever cap, with the
pre-hinge section missing most of its nickel. This will clean up to be a very
presentable example of an early type of this most useful plane. Good+
