Stanley 87cabinet maker's scraper plane

offered 1905 - 1917

8"  long with   2"  cutter

Similar to the 85 but no tilting mechanism for handle or knob. Suffers from the same shortcomings as the 85 i.e. frog has very limited adjustability and the width of the cut is not very impressive, either.

However, this plane had a much shorter life span than the 85 and therefore is far less common. I would rate it rare to very rare and certainly amongst the top 10 Stanley collector tools.
