Sargent
Combination Tongue & Groove Planes Sargent made some very
innovative and interesting designed planes and these T & G planes they offered fall
into that category nicely. These are both complete and damage free, but as
with many of their products the nickel is weak. There is a 1068 & 1067 offered
as a pair.
Good . . . . . $350.00 / Pair SOLD
Sargent
# 1508 1/2 "Lady Bug" Rabbet & Dado Plane This was Sargent's
answer to the Stanley #90 series of planes and came in a range of sizes
much like the Stanley 90 -94. Sargent went a step further and also
offered these with an optional fence and depth stop. Those would be
referred to with a 1/2 after the main number like 1508 in this case. In
other words it is proper and to be expected that many of these planes do
not have the fence / rod and depth stop, even if the body is drilled for
them. This one does. They were offered as an accessory.

Sargent #
74 Circular Plane This compass plane was Sargent's
answer to Stanley's #20 Compass Plane. It is much harder to find, and this
one is in nice condition. Good . . . . . $275.00 SOLD
Good . . . . . $295.00 SOLD
Sargent #317 Tailed Block Plane This plane is in nice condition. It is
the later version as can be noted by the cap style, and the thick walls with the
handy feature. The cutter is marked 317. There is no rust and just minor
spots of very light pitting here and there. The throat area is damage
free. The body still retains approx 90% of the original finish, while there
has been some looses to the cap. All proper and original, and you will like
it!
Good . . . . . $395.00 SOLD
Winchester
#3063 1" Dado/Rabbeting Plane Sargent made this plane for Winchester during their short
lived foray into the consumer tool market back before the onset of the great depression.
Through a series of marketing missteps and because of the worsening economy during
this period, Winchester who was in partnership with Simmons Hardware, had to give
up on their plans to dominate this portion of the consumer market. This plane
is in like new condition, with the exception of the cutter, which the previous owner
has modified on the top to serve as a moulding cutter of some sort. By doing
this he has lost about 1/4 of height to the top of the cutter and has made the top
of the cutter round. The original working end appears to have never been sharpened.
The japanning is well over 97% and the nickers are as new. You will not be
disappointed, it is the nicest one I have ever seen.
Good . . . . . $295.00 SOLD
Winchester #3201 (#78) Rabbit
Plane As is the case with most Winchester
tools and planes, this one has seen considerable use. It has approx 50% of
the japanning, and a rich even patina. There are no casting problems but there
are some bangs and dings as is to be expected. This plane was made by Sargent
and I believe has the proper fence and rod. I could not find the wing nut
for the depth stop in the box where I got this, and so had to replace it with another.
Metal bodied planes marked Winchester are always a challenge to find, and this one
is no exception.

Sargent #407 Type 2 (#2 size) Smooth Plane
This is a very nice example of an early plane by Sargent Tool Co. one of the major
competitors of Stanley in the plane manufacturing business early in the last century.
Being a type 2 dates this plane from before 1910. This plane retains most
of its original japanning, and has a rich and even patina with no pitting or rust
to speak of. The early, proper and original Rosewood handle and knob are very
nice as well. The one apology is that the cutter has been replaced at some
point with a Stanley one that dates from the teens. A tough plane to find.
Good . . . . . $295.00 SOLD

set line of planes was very popular and a well made plane. The 722

Sargent Scrub Planes This group of planes
may not look special to the casual observer, but all metal Sargent scrub planes
are becoming pretty hard to find, and that two cutter model in the middle is one
of the rarest of all planes that Sargent ever produced. These Sargent scrub
planes are the #161, #161, & #162 and date from the teens into the 20's or so with
the rare 162 only having been made in one production run. The #162 is often
found missing pieces as they were very hard to adjust and oftentimes the owner just
took out 1 cutter and a cap and used it with just one cutter.
Good . . . . . $1750.00 / Lot SOLD
