The few decent ones? Collectors seem to beat me to those. Yeah, I know, one could say just give it up, and forget woodworking with hand tools. The Wood River will not have any serial numbers to check, but the newer plane will be easy to distinguish. The lever lever will have three parts with a brass tip, and the adjustment knob is larger.
Additionally, Woodcraft will be releasing an upgrade to the one shown in the photographs later this year. Richard — Cool site! You missed the new Stanley block plane, the RB5! Looks like it doubles as a chisel plane!
Wow, I need one of these…. I agree with Gary. Never have been disappointed with Mr. I think one of the reasons the release of these tools caused a lot of discussion was for just that reason. They DO make it hard to tell the difference between quality and junk.
Who has the time or ability to perform an in-depth review of a hand plane in the aisle of a Woodcraft? I, too would like to know how to distinguish the new, improved models from the older, flawed ones. Thanks for the information Chris. If so, we would then need to know what serial number the new planes start at. As a consumer who has been burned by purchasing enough boats full of boat anchors to sink a boat, thank you for your reviews. Now, how do I as a consumer with no skills as a consumer tell the new versions of these improved tools from the old stocks of defective tools waiting to be sold?

Thanks Woodcraft and I look forward to getting more excellent hand tools for my woodworking needs. This was my first quality set of chisels.
They are well balanced, and just need a good honing, prior to use. They really gave me the best bang for my buck. I had these pre sharpened because I needed to use them as soon as they arrived. We they came I went straight to work on a dinning room table now it is complete. I had to chisel out bad inlay and replace with new. They worked great thanks. After receiving the set, I began to examine the tools. Well at first glance they look really nice. But after some detail inspecting, I noticed the buffing was too extreme, the bevels were not exact on both sides, the handle flat areas do not align properly and the grinding is poor all around.
Yes, my observations are cosmetic but, I was expecting something resembling the picture and machined properly. My Stanley FatMax chisels, set of six, are machined much better than these and the cost less.
