Hard‑to‑Find Davis Level & Tool Co. Cast Iron Block Plane — Springfield, Massachusetts

A scarce and hard‑to‑find cast iron block plane by the Davis Level & Tool Company of Springfield, Massachusetts — one of the most distinctive and immediately recognizable early American block plane designs. Neither the body nor the iron is marked, exactly as expected, but the form is unmistakably Davis: no other maker produced a block plane with this profile, casting style, or mechanical layout.

This pattern is illustrated in PTAMPIA, where its unique form and rarity are noted — a true standout among early cast‑iron block planes.
