Up for sale is a super nice Stanley #4 type 11 hand plane. This one has a corrugated sole and it is flat. The Japanning was very spotty on the bed so I stripped it off and re-Japanned it using Stanley's factory recipe and baked it at low heat 5 times. The iron has good length and I have sharpened it going through the grits up to 8000. The rosewood tote and knob show their original patina and have no cracks, chips, or major marks
