Found these hiding in the back of a tool drawer

[Kev Williams]

My dad, his dad, and I assume his dad (I'm not all that current on my family tree) built a lot of the first houses in this town, I have a lot of their old saws & planes & things, but I don't remember seeing these before. I didn't follow in their woodworking steps so much either, and most of my woodworking knowledge I gather from you guys ;) -- Anyway, these are pretty old, thought I'd share :)

--I've never seen a plane with 2 places to set the blade-?

[Bill Dufour]

Where are you from? Did they live there too or some other countries?

[Jim Koepke]

That is known as a duplex rabbet plane. It is so one can get close to an enclosed corner.

Yours is an early model, no blade adjuster and appears to be missing the fence and rod for guiding it along an edge.

Ohhhh man. I envy you. I have a single plane that was my grandfather's. Nothing else came down to me.

[Kurtis Johnson]

Cool. This is the first I’d heard of American Tool and Foundry Company, but there’s a couple just like it up for auction as we speak at the internet auction sites.

West Jordan, few miles south of Salt Lake. Far as I know my great-grandad never left this town, and I know my dad and grandpa never did.
