The tiger maple displays exceptional curl and figure throughout both bodies, with matching grain and coloration that make this pair especially attractive to collectors of modern infill and traditional wooden planes.
Both planes retain crisp maker\'s stamps, sharp edges, clean irons (Original Hone from Maker), and show little to no evidence of actual woodworking use.

Condition
