Upgraded, so no need for this one. Solid birch J Denison filletster plane with reasonably sharp skewed iron, slicing nicker and depth stop.
Fence screws down tightly. Looks like lignum boxing. Looks like it could tell stories.

A little history.....

John Denison (b. 1799, d. Aug. 25 1876 in Winthrop CT) was in business
for himself at "Denison's Tool Manufactory" in the rear of his home in
Saybrook, CT from 1840-76. John was listed in the 1850 census as a
toolmaker with 5 employees, producing 1750 planes a year worth $3,300.
In the 1860 census the company claimed 8 employees producing 12,000
planes worth $6,000.
