This is a top quality plane made by David Bensen in Albany, NY in the first half of the 19th century. It's a very well-made plane with some light wear from use.

This plane was made in the fourth quarter of 1942 according to the date stamp. This must have been right at the start of Stanley's wartime changes to their planes.

It's an excellent example with a long, clean blade, perfect handles, and accurate adjusters. The blade just needs a grind and hone, and it will work perfectly. $70

Use a hammer to adjust the blade and they make solid workers. this one has some wear but is still usable. These will never be popular among users, but they do work $20
