hmmm...maybe...i dunno...wazzit look like to you???

I came across this on CL: http://elmira.craigslist.org/tls/3834750170.html The pricing IMO is way high...and I only quickly glanced at it, then...



Is that a #2???

I called the guy. No answer. Left a message.

So I'll ask you guys...Do you think it is a #2 or a #3?




I even wonder if the red one is a 4 1/2?



Wishful thinking probably...

Given limited visual information -- the red one looks like a #4; the smallest looks like a #3.

[Sam Takeuchi]

Red one should be 4-1/2, from the looks of it. I always felt that 2-3/8" blade on a 4-1/2 always looked unbalanced with disproportionately wide blade. Compare to the 5s in the picture, it's obvious that that one doesn't have a 2" blade.

Not sure about the small one. Looks like a black shadow of a plane for all its worth, can't discern any details from it at all.

[Harold Burrell]

OK...the guy called me back.

It is a #3.

The red one is some kind of Great Neck thing, so...well...let's say, I graciously declined (since I didn't have the heart to ask him to knock $100 off his asking price).
