Extra Fine Stanley No. 17 Adjustable Throat Block Plane – Superior Nickel Plating – 98% Japanning
This Stanley No. 17 block plane is a refined and less common model, often considered a deluxe version of the No. 9½. With its 7″ long sole, adjustable throat, and superior nickel plating, it’s built for precision trimming and end grain work.
- 1 5/8″ wide cutter – set at a low 20° bed angle for smooth slicing
- Bright nickel plating – clean and well preserved
- Adjustable throat and lateral controls – for fine shaving control
- Approximately 98% japanning – remarkably well preserved
A solid choice for woodworkers and collectors who appreciate Stanley’s golden-era engineering—even when the exact chapter is a bit of a mystery.
