B63-544. COMPOSITE SOLE SMOOTHING PLANE. Steers No. 304. The rare adjustable version of William Steer's patented bench planes with rosewood inserts in the sole to reduce friction. In all original, very clean condition with marked cutter. A couple of tiny chips and user initials in the tote. Best of all, the rosewood inserts in the sole are near perfect, without the wear at the toe that typically characterizes these planes. Metal is oxidized but with no rust or pitting. Good+ 300-600
