This handsome piece of equipment has never been used, can you believe it? Myself, I'd call it a hand planer. The blade is in pristine condition and the tuning screws (okay, maybe they’re not called that in the instructions…”adjustment nuts”, well: lah dee dah) are in fine working order. Looks like it was never used. The plastic sheath is also in good form (one slice when I wasn’t paying proper attention to the alignment as I slid it back into the pocket). Otherwise in perfect shape. Consider this a bargain - do I hear $7?
