The handles are in good shape with the rear handle having an undeclared glue joint when I received it. These are nearly impossible to find in mint condition. The knob appears to be good. There is very little if any pitting or staining from use on the bottom of the body but the cheeks has staining and tool box marks which were lapped out somewhat but remain for provenance.  

Please see pictures and read.

Multiple manufacturers made oddball USA planes including Stanley, Millers Falls and Sargent. 

 

Used, professionally refurbished and waxed.

What you get from me. I often purchase tools that come to me with undeclared flaws. I go through them and correct as many flaws as possible and sometimes use the tool for parts if it beyond refurbishing. Replacement parts are no longer made and sourcing them is difficult and expensive. Sometimes, I must purchase another tool just for a single part. I believe in transparency and tell you what I have done. I have decades of experience restoring antique tools. Please look closely at the pictures and make sure this is the item you want before purchasing. Only the item listed is included. Items in the background are for scale reference and display suggestion only.
