Unknown maker.

[Bod]

As per my "Todays haul" photos of the unknown No.6 plane.

Side on, note tall front knob.

No cast ring to prevent knob splitting.

Note 7 B on lever cap. No markings on blade or cap iron.

Frog mounts, note 7 A on back of frog, at the top.

This may be the key, No 6 is underlined.
The frog screws are 1/4 Whitworth thread, there is no patent dates, the handles are beech, paint is black, adjuster knob is brass with a left hand thread(very sloppy)

Any ideas?

Its been suggested this plane may be either German or Scandinavian in manufacture.

There is plenty of evidence that tool merchants used to offer unbranded, generic tools alongside the warranted, branded options.

To take just one example - looking at a 1940 catalogue from Gardiners of Bristol, there are three pages of Stanley planes, three pages of the Record equivalents, and even a page of Norris planes.

But there is also an entry for un-named "iron planes" in three sizes, for a few shillings less than the branded planes.
I expect that is what you have. But there is no reason to assume that it will be any less capable a plane in your hands. You could call it a Bod Plane!

I'll give it a sharpen & set, see how it goes.
