I ask a question in one of my old threads, but I am not sure anyone will read something a month old, so I thought I would start a new category and maybe get an answer.

Do Lie-Nielson plane blades work in old Stanley planes? I have been using Hock blades and chip breakers. They work great and sharpen easily and stay sharp, but LN would give me another route. Will LN chip breakers work with Stanley's?

Thanks. Katherine

The short answer is yes. A great many LN planes are direct copies of Stanley models, made with better materials and care. A quick call or email to LN can verify the fit of any given plane just to be sure. The folks at LN are always helpful.
