B66-286 DOUBLE-BODIED HAWK PLANE. Hawk planes have a v-shaped sole and a pointed cutter; equipped with a plow type fence they were used in shipyards to score lines along the planking in a ship's hull to guide the painting of stripes. This isn't the first one we've seen with a double body, but what's unusual about this one is that one has a flat and the other a compassed sole. We're not sure how that would work, but they're both clearly original to the plane. Slide arms are locked by hand-carved wingnuts in both bodies, each body also has a wooden depth stop with a locking wingnut. Wood oxidized and with some checks and scratches but no damage. One depth stop is jammed. Toe of the flat sole body is faintly marked "W. Soule"; there were a number of planemakers named Soule but this was probably the owner. Very unusual. Good+ 100-200
