Stanley 1-12-151 Spokes have "No. 151" flat, Multicolor

My woodworker hubby says this tool is comfortable, the blade is easy to set, and holds its edge.

Exactly as advertized - solid toolmid-level finish, good quality partsblade takes a nice edge, may want to flatten the sole and cap-edge to upgrade performance

Great for people with larger hands, super comfortable.

Works well enough. The adjustments leave a bit to be desired, but nothing most won’t be able to work with. I dipped the handles in some liquid rubber to make it a bit more comfortable to hold onto. It’ll get the job done.

Another problem for me to solve, but not the one I bought the tool to solve. I took delivery of this Stanley No. 151 spoke shave on 04/28/25.The bosses on the knurled adjustment nuts are not large enough to securely engage the slots on the blade, making the built-in blade adjustment mechanism virtually useless. Moreover, the two threaded posts are loose in their mounts, so they wobble, even when the posts are tightened. I will keep the "Stanley" tool, but put spring-loaded washers on the adjustment posts beneath the nuts, or maybe have a machine shop make replacement adjustment nuts. Maybe I can buy replacement nuts made for a competing product. There are many other spoke shaves on the market, such as the Bench Dog No. 151, also sold by Amazon. A lot of these are based on the same Stanley No. 151 chassis, and in the pictures they all look alike. Are most of these made in the same factory?Meanwhile, I paid about $35 for a blade that has "STANLEY" laser engraved into it, and I got a mediocre implementation of a classic name-brand tool thrown in for free. I plan to buy a second spoke shave of the same design made by a different manufacturer, but get it from a brick-and-mortar store where I can examine the tool VERY CAREFULLY beforehand (e.g. the Bench Dog version sold by Rockler via Amazon). If I can successfully examine the "Bench Dog No. 151" at a local Rockler store and convince myself it is of sufficient quality, perhaps I will order the thing from Amazon so I can write a favorable follow-up review for the benefit of Conestoga wagon people trekking across northern Wyoming.Why can't I be a normal guy and just buy another hunting knife so I can skin and cook squirrels in the microwave?

I’m looking forward to using this great product in my new workshop.

Looks pretty good, heavy enough and Sharp blade, close to work just out of the box. Easy of adjust, pretty simple, arrived before expected

I like this a lot. It's very easy to make small adjustments so you can shave off a small amount of wood at a time. It was plenty sharp out of the box and I've been using it on hickory and it's held it's edge well so far.
