Stanley No 18 Type 8 Deep Dive

Always enjoy your videos 👍😎🤠🇺🇸 I have one similar to yours, looks very close but mine says Stanley on the toe. It also has a patent date of 2/18/13 I think mine maybe a #19. It has a Sweetheart marked iron, as well.

Thanks for the kind words. It takes a lot of effort to crank out a video. I like to keep mine short and moving which requires a lot of editing. The 19 is one inch longer (7 vs 6"), and the sweetheart era was about 15 years later. I saw a number 18 of that vintage many months ago and wish I bought it. I'd like to have one with the better lever cap and the sweethearts are right around the high water mark of Stanley's best. The trademark is very cool to boot. Cheers.
