Extra Info: - What is a Spokeshave? - Spokeshave Videos - What is a Chamfer Shave? - Chamfer Tool Videos
Manufacturer: Stanley
Tool Type: Spokeshave
Model No: 65
The Stanley chamfer spokeshave number 65 is a simple 10 1/2 inch long
chamfer shave.
The 65 has a round face with two adjustable fences positioned under
the shave.
The fences are quickly adjusted by releasing and securing the thumb
screws on top of the shave arms.
The fences allow any through or stopped 'chamfer'
to be produced and repeated evenly and uniformly.
The 38mm (1 1/2 inch) wide blade on the 65 spokeshaves has to be manually
placed in position by hand.
The combination of the fences and the 1 1/2" cutter means this tool
can chamfer any width up to 1 1/2".
Once in place, the cutter is secured by locking the lever cap on to
the blade. The lever cap is locked / released by turning the lever cap
thumbscrew.
The spokeshave body and lever cap are finished with a black japanning finish.
The handles on the 65 are advertised as 'straight handle'.
Each handle has a convenient circular hole cut in the end to allow the tool to hung
from a hook in the workshop.
The Stanley 65 is almost identical in design and function to the
Record 065 Chamfer Shave
and the
Edward Preston 89 Chamfer Shave
with the obvious difference being the colour.

"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."
