Antique Stanley No 45/55 Cutter Set of Fifteen (15) including Plow & Dado (8), Beading (6) and Match Cutters (1). These are Notched And Unmarked/Unnumbered. Based upon available research, the first notched cutters were introduced in 1896 which was also the advent of the first numbered cutters produced by Stanley. However, not all cutters were numbered until sometime in the mid-1920’s. Based on this information, these cutters were most likely produced during the late 1890’s to mid-1920’s, making them a great find for the antique Stanley tool collector. This set also includes a No 18 (3/4) Plow & Dado Cutter which was not normally included in cutter sets before 1920, and the No. 18-1/2 (13/16) which was normally included. Also included is the Original Wooden Cutter Case with its original leather strap. The wooden box adds to the charm and authenticity of this unique piece of history. Case measures 12″ x 6″ x 3/4 and has cut-out for Sash or Match cutter. Case is fastened together with clenched nails. This Case housing these notched and unmarked/unnumbered cutters, indicates that it may date from the late 1890’s. Plow & Dado Cutter sizes with corresponding Stanley Numbering. 1/8 #10 (Hole at top end of cutter is broken but still usable). 3/4 #18 (not normally included in cutter set). Beading Cutter Sizes with corresponding Stanley Numbering. Cutter are as found with only light cleaning and appear in excellent condition for their age with normal wear and tear. With no chips, or major pitting – see photos.

Also included is the original wood cutter box and cardboard lid, although they have some condition issues. The box and lid have the blue finish as can be seen, and the lid is not marked Stanley or with any brand name. The blue color would indicate that these cutters were originally part of a Wards Master plane that was made for them by Stanley. The cutters are clearly Stanley cutters, with the Stanley notch in the upper corner and with Stanley part numbers on every cutter except for the 1/8 dado where there isn’t room for the number. These will not work properly on a Sargent plane, as Sargent uses a different pattern of notches. 7 bead or beading cutters, marked with part numbers 21 through 27. Sizes are 1/8″ through 1/2″ by 16ths. 2 match cutters. One is marked “6” which is the 3/16″ cutter, and the other is marked “5” which is the 1/4″ cutter. Both of these have their depth stops. 1 sash cutter marked “1”. It also has its depth stop. 11 dado or plow cutters. Ten are marked with part numbers, which are 11 through 19, plus one faintly marked “18 1/2″. The 1/8 cutter is not marked as expected. Sizes are 1/8″ through 1/2″ by 16ths, 5/8″, 3/4″, 13/16″ (the 18 1/2), and 7/8″. The box lid actually shows 23 cutters. I don’t have the #9 filletster cutter and I don’t have the #8 slitter with this set. Condition of the cutters is very good to excellent, mostly bright and shiny with a variety of scratches, and just a hint of patina (color) here or there. The 1/8″ dado doesn’t have the little hole at the top, and the 7/8″ dado is a bit rough along one edge. The wood cutter box is also in very good to excellent condition. The cardboard lid is in poor to fair condition, showing lots of wear and with some clear tape holding one end together which I tried to show in the 8th picture. The winner gets all 21 cutters and the box and lid! I sell what I enjoy, and I collect antique woodworking tools and I enjoy photography! The queue is overflowing with tools right now, as they seem to be finding me faster than I can list them. So please keep watching my postings as I have LOTS more to list! Searching my listings: I have lots to see! That will lead you to my extensive system of categories. You might ask: How can I know when you start new listings? Descriptions, and auctions with pictures only of the left side because the right side was trashed. I come from the handshake school of doing business, and hopefully you are like me and understand what that means. What goes around, comes around. However, that doesn’t mean that I won’t make an occasional mistake. Please don’t ask, the answer is no. I package well, and have a great track record. I use the US Post Office for everything. Every year the US Postal Service raises rates in mid to late January, and this year is no exception. So I wont do that for you, or to you. PACKAGING: Please check my feedback — I package well. I hope someday I will meet some of you as we trudge the happy road of tool collecting!
