Saturday Blue Light Special..Block Plane - Timberwolf - 09-02-2023
Here is a hard {if not impossible} to find Diamond Edge low angle block plane sold by Norville Shapley Hardware Company out of St.Louis IIRC.. They went out of business during the Great Depression.. It is a quality tool and in excellent condition, made by Ohio Tool Company and sold under Shapley's brand... I could be wrong on the manufacturer...{Admiral may know}. .Has a nickel plated cap iron 95%, 100% japanning, full length blade and an adjust adjustable mouth...It is in fine condition..I have had it as part of my personal collection for about 40 years. I am selling it for sixty dollars including shipping...U.S. Sale only..Personal check from woodnetters is fine if I know you, or USPS Money order.... Money refunded less shipping if you do not like this plane for any reason or no reason. Pms are on..First “I'll take it” is the winner...Thanks for looking,

Hmmm, the only Ohio Tool catalog I know of doesn't list this lever cap design, but that's not saying they didn't make it:

It does show up in the Diamond Edge catalog,

Model number depends on length.

Thanks Admiral...This one is the DEX60. ... sole measures six inches in length...just the right size for an apron pocket.
