Today's Featured Tool Description

Strode, G. : Unique Center Wheel Plow Plane. Six Ivory Tips. Only Known Example. Length: 11.00 Inches. A rare and almost certainly unique CENTER WHEEL PLOW PLANE bearing the imprint of one "G. Strode". George Strode was the son of planemaker J. Strode who produced planes in Hocking Township, Fairfield County, Ohio in the 1830's and 1840's. Both the elder and the younger Stroud marked their planes twice, with their name imprinted horizontally with one mark facing up and one facing down, surrounded by a series of "starburst" symbols" This beech body American made "bridle" plow has three IVORY tips and arms of dark rosewood. The massive adjusting screw to adjust the relationship of the fence to the body of the plane is also turned from rosewood and it has a "starburst" pattern brass inlay in the face of the knob. The top of the plane has marquetry inlay of rosewood in the form of a heart with an ivory heart in the center of the inlay and the "bridge" on the fence has two stylized brass inlays bracketing the center screw. The toe is stamped with the "G. Strode" imprint both facing upward and downward, in the manner of planes produced by his father, John Strode, who marked his planes "J. Strode". A full scale model of this plane was produced by the late Jim Leamy of East Early, Pennsylvnia, but no other examples by Strode are known to exist. Simply a great plow plane of unique design made by a maker who apparently produced very few planes. Highly Recommended. (FINE). This item was sold on May 14, 2025 for $5,500.00. jpg_file

Just Added to the Auctions

jpg_file Lot 400. A RARE EXOTIC MATERIAL PLOW PLANE by Cowell & Chapman, Newcastle, England. This plane, which is not marked in any way, was a unique product of this Northern England maker and it is identical to the few other examles of this plane that have surfaced. It has a cast brass main frame a rosewood fence, an ebony handle and boxwood arms and nuts. This plane was consciously crafted by the maker to be a showpiece and it remains so to this day. A great early woodworking plane in top collector quality condition. Highly recommended. (FINE).(2,500.00 - 5,000.00) Length: 11 Inches.
