Stanley Planes

Everything you wanted to know about Stanley planes made by the Stanley Rule & Level Company

Stanley woodworking planes are some of the most recognizable and collectible antique woodworking tools available. Made by a variety of manufacturers that the Stanley Rule & Level Company acquired over the years, these planes were found in many small furniture and cabinet shops as well as home shops and schools. Many of the Stanley bench planes are still staples in school woodworking classes.

Stanley sold dozens of different types of planes all of which were assigned a number. Some are very rare and highly sought after by collectors. I've been fortunate to acquire a few of them including the highly collectible Stanley No. 1 plane and others. Below, you'll find links to information about each of the Stanley woodworking planes made including photos, history, and information about each model.
