    "Second Quality" Hand Planes?

    I just saw an old hand plane for sale, and it has "second quality" stamped on it. I can't see what's wrong with it.

    I'm wondering if anyone here has any idea why a company like Stanley or Millers Falls would stamp a plane "second quality." For all I know, it could be a paint problem, and the paint on old planes is shot anyway.

    Cry "Havoc," and let slip the dogs of bench.

    I was socially distant before it was cool.

    A little authority corrupts a lot.
