Norris A16 Infill Smoothing Plane

This is a rare eample of the Norris A16 smoothing plane, with the 2" width Iron and the sole length of 6 3/4"

The low points are that the plane does have rust staining and some pitting in areas, nothing too bad, the Iron though originally Norris is very low, also the adjuster does have a slight kink and bend in it, it does still work as it should though and adjusts the Iron, it probably wouldn't take too much to straighten this out but I have left as is, the wood is ok though does have some knocks as one would expect.

All that being said it is a very scarce plane that don't turn up that often, this one with the adjuster wasn't offered in the Norris catalogue at the time.
