Nowadays they are producing band saw blades and band steel.<br />So I guess they make scrapers as a side product.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />StefanAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17569365598390231433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1321553715454450871.post-34717302695433324762017-04-04T21:53:59.564-07:002017-04-04T21:53:59.564-07:00Thanks for the clarification and the extra info. ...Thanks for the clarification and the extra info.

I meant No 18 Eureka flush T-bevel, sorry. No 25 had a wing nut or recessed lever (like yours). Stanley, nor Traut did not invented that butt locking mechanism, Samuel Sargent did in 1873. But Christian Bodmer (Stanley) did improved it in a 1908 patent. The earliest ones are not Stanley and cast Eagles, but Disston also made some (like mine) and a few others. Stanley No 18 were available in 6,8,10 and 12 in (blade length) 12in is the rarest, hence more mucho dinaros...

I thought this one was a no. 25. I've seen those that lock at the opposite end (away from where the sliding blade pivots) and wondered how well they locked.Tiny Shop Woodworkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10375332433853904113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1321553715454450871.post-31023049073716224212017-04-03T11:59:55.364-07:002017-04-03T11:59:55.364-07:00Justus Traut wasn't on my radar until this.
