>I know this is question is a bit moot, because you can't see the logo clearly, but would you say this is a Type 14 or 15? If it is a 14, it's the best one I've ever seen.
Nice Stanley #45

>Looks like Sweethart, but can't tell if is the Type 14 (5,000 made), or the Type 15 (21,000 made).
Anyone interested in this level of minutae should get Dave Heckel's 45 book - they are always on eBay (no affiliation)

#6I always warn people...

>I always warn any interested #45 buyers to make sure it has all the parts that are appropriate for that Type number. (Heckel's #45 book is the source) As other posters have said, this little beauty is missing a few pieces. None are hard to find, but you're going to pay the price. This one was already at $200+ when I checked mid-afternoon Friday.
I was late getting to an estate sale a few years ago. I knew I lost out on a #45 there. While rummaging through an old tool box, I found #45 cutters, rods and depth stops that the buyer missed. I paid $10 for the whole lot of parts. I traded these to a #45 parts dealer (there are a number of sources) for other Stanley parts I needed and some cash back.
Buyer beware!
