B65-648 SMOOTHING PLANE. Morris Diamond Sole. Early version of the design patented in 1870 by Ellis Morris and marketed by Sandusky as the "Diamond" plane. This resembles the plane shown in figure 69 of PTAMPIA II, except that the diamond pattern covers the entire sole. 9-3/4" sole, 2-1/4" cutter that is pitted and too worn to read the name, applewood tote, knob, and wedge; there's a chip from the end of the tote and the wedge is worn with a couple of splits. From the collection of Harold Unruh. Good+ 300-600
