Stanley No. 3 Type 7 Hand Plane (1893-99) Restored-Rare Antique Woodworking Tool

Offered here is a Stanley No. 3 Type 7 smoothing plane, produced between 1893 and 1899. This plane has been expertly restored with great attention to detail, making it stand out from the majority of similar tools on the market. Fully disassembled, cleaned, and restored inside and out. Sole flattened and polished to ensure smooth, accurate cuts.

Blade sharpened, honed, and ready to use immediately. Frog, hardware, and depth adjustment are original and correct for the Type 7 era. Rosewood tote and knob refinished with a rich, smooth surface free of cracks.

95% intact, much better than typical examples from this period. Unlike many listings with only partial cleaning or surface polishing, this example has been fully restored to user and collector standards. Correct Type 7 details from the late 19th century make this an authentic and highly collectible example. Both a functional woodworking tool and a historical piece, ready to perform or display proudly. This is a rare opportunity to own a genuine Type 7 No.

With its complete restoration and ready-to-use blade, it surpasses the average quality of most Stanley No.
