    Thanks for the video. It teachs me how to take out the handle of the 709

    Just bought the no.9 on eBay for $30 and it looks brand new. Thanks for the info I had no idea about the chip breaker.

      That's one of the reasons I do these videos, so people can appreciate the less obvious engineering features. And, I think the MF no. 9 is one of the best bargains in vintage planes. Thanks for watching!

    I agree that the #9 is probably the better user but I give kudos to Millers Falls for making the 709. Their industrial design was superior to Stanley in every way.

      Mostly, I agree. It is a bit more difficult to adjust the mouth opening on the 709 compared to Baily style planes. It's too bad their nice design didn't give them more of a commercial boost; it was just too late, I think.

    I would have past that right up at the flea due to it looking like 80s garbage!
