For Sale: Keen Kutter KK7 jointer. $25 plus shipping - Bill_Houghton - 09-01-2016 SOLD AT THE ASKING PRICE OF $25 This Keen Kutter KK7 jointer is NOT a collector's item, as you will see. I'm offering it for someone who wants a jointer, is a touch short on money, and is willing to put in the time. I'm asking $25 plus shipping (probably $19 for priority mail, unless you live fairly close). Also open to trades, but only for limited things: I'm particularly looking right now for two Starrett 6" combo square rules (I have the heads). So here's the virtues, first: 1. It's the same length and width as a Stanley No. 7 jointer: 22" long, with a 2-3/8" wide iron. 2. There's a lot of use left in the iron. 3. The knob and tote are nice looking wood. 4. There's quite a bit of japanning left. 5. It's got a corrugated sole. But... 1. The top of the tote's broken off (fortunately, the break doesn't extend as far as the hole for the clamping bolt, so it'll be a fairly easy fix). This is visible in the first photo, and again here: 2. The sole is somewhat convex - I can get a 0.005" feeler gauge under a straightedge at the front and back of the sole. 3. The iron is probably not original; it reads "Victory/Made in U.S.A." Some online sources indicate that this makes it a Stanley WWII iron, and that the quality is just fine; I have no personal knowledge. 4. There are a couple of chips from the left sidewalls at front and back corners. 5. There's a small chip from the center of the leading edge of the lever cap, although it's small enough that it's unlikely to have much effect. 6. There is, oh no! a hanging hole. Nicely done, though.

Someone is likely trying to snag this bargain! RE: For Sale: Keen Kutter KK7 jointer. $25 plus shipping - Bill_Houghton - 09-02-2016 Thanks!
