M. C. Mayo Tool Co. Block PlaneM. C. Mayo Tool Co. Block Plane   Matthias C. Mayo is best known for his Mayo Patent Plow Plane (Patent No.167,772), released in 1875.  They were a flashy looking if not well designed plow that were first offered in 1875 and were only offered for a few years.

The Mayo Patent block plane is thought tto date from the same period. There is no known patent associated with it. The plane has a captive cast iron lever cap with a pronounced hump as well as a indent foreword for the users finger. It is approx. 2" wide and 8" long. It would take a 1 3/4" cutter, which is missing. The overall condition of this unusual little block pane is pretty nice noting little if any finish remains.
