How much would you pay for a Type 11 Stanley 5 1/2C with a weld, incorrect tote, and a homemade lateral adjuster? ...I don't want to talk about it. The good news is it's my first V trademark tool and it has a good frog, yoke, adjusting wheel, cap iron, mildly short blade, and low knob! Any way I thought I would share my experience so everyone would remember to throughly check your tools before purchasing. I did get a nice little Type 2 MF number 9 though!
