Manufacturer: Stanley
Tool Type: Sliding Bevel
Model No: 25
The Stanley sliding bevel number 25 is made with a Rosewood stock, a
blued steel blade and brass fittings.
The Rosewood stock is shaped with a finger / thumb grip grooves on either
face, offering the user extra grip and giving the tool a more elaborate
design over many other similar makes.
The top and bottom of the stock is fitted with solid brass plates giving
the tool a good quality look.
The Stanley 25 bevel is equipped with a quick
release wing nut which allows the blade to easily be locked in position
by swivelling the wing nut until tight.
The blade which swivels to any required angle was hardened, tempered,
ground and blued.
The Stanley 25 sliding bevel was made in three sizes in the early years:
- 7 1/2 inch
- 9 inch
- 10 1/2 inch
With 5 sizes being produced by the 1930's, all of which were of a completely
different size to the earlier versions:
- 6 inch
- 8 inch
- 10 inch
- 12 inch
- 14 inch
<1900 - 1959>

"Just stumbled across your website and an absolute treasure trove of information.
I was recently given an old Stanley 110 block plane and wanted to know more about it.
Your website told me everything I needed to know.
But there is so much more to read. I forsee me spending a lot of time just reading
page after page. I can appreciate how much time this will have taken to put together.
I just wanted to let you know that your hard work is appreciated."
