The Stanley No.4 Plane Iron is a precision-engineered replacement blade designed for professional woodworkers and hobbyists who demand consistency and durability. Crafted from high-grade chrome carbon steel, this 50mm (2in) blade provides exceptional edge retention and is factory-ground for a flat, uniform surface that streamlines the honing process. While it serves as an excellent upgrade for compatible Stanley models, users should note that initial stropping and final honing are required to achieve the specific sharpness levels needed for fine finish work.

This blade is designed for specific modern Stanley models; please verify your plane's model number against 112004, 112005, 112204, or 112205.
Yes, while factory-ground, final honing is recommended to achieve a razor-sharp edge suited to your specific woodworking needs.
The blade is manufactured from chrome carbon steel, chosen for its balance of hardness and ease of sharpening.
This iron is specifically engineered for the 2-inch width of the No.4 series; it may not fit planes requiring different widths or thicknesses.
Apply a light coat of oil after each use to prevent rust, particularly if the shop is not climate-controlled.
Check the tightness of the lever cap and ensure the frog is seated securely against the plane bed.
Ensure the primary bevel is flattened on a coarse stone before progressing to finer grits; do not attempt to sharpen a dull edge using only a strop.
Use a fine abrasive pad to remove surface oxidation and apply a protective layer of machine oil immediately after.
To install the blade, first ensure the plane's cap iron and frog are free of debris. Slide the new iron onto the adjustment assembly, aligning it with the plane mouth. Before tightening the lever cap, check that the lateral adjustment lever can move freely to center the blade.
