The only negative with this tool is that you cannot close up the throat for a very fine cut. Front section cannot be moved far enough back without modifying the tool

I was impressed with the quality at this price. It is well made and sturdy and I had no problems with it keeping adjustments once set.

I have been looking to buy a shoulder plane for some time and was overloaded with reviews, opinions, blogs, etc. about the quality of these planes. I decided to take a chance and buy the Stanley. It arrived [...] and I put it to work right out of the box tuning tongues on some highly figured quarter sawn white oak that I was tongue and grooving for a blanket chest. The plane performed beautifully, allowing me to take off fine shavings to get the thickness of the tongues just right. I am glad the plane is performing so well. I have not used any of the higher priced "premium" planes on the market so I can't make any comparison to them. However, I can say that the Stanley didn't diminish any results that my skills and abilities have allowed me to get so far. For me, its a great tool and I have enjoyed using it.

This shoulder plane fits the bill perfectly used as either a shoulder plane to clean up tenons or when used as a chisel plane to clean up the glue in corners. My only complaint is that if you are not well versed in sharpening a shoulder plane it is very easy to make this plane ineffective. You must be able to keep the cutting edge square to the sides as you have very little adjustment to allow for an out of square cutting edge. I recommend a good sharpening guide such as 03A21 honing guide that will clamp on to the narrow upper blade and keep things square.
