There are two cracks on the right side of the rising platform. However, I don't think there's any problem with using it. With these kinds of tricky smoothing planes, the back iron may not fit even if it's new, so adjusting it is difficult. Therefore, this is a rather important point. I've cleaned it to remove the dirt, but it's an old platform, so it's not prone to warping. Please refrain from price negotiations, except for bulk purchases. Also, please consult with me in advance for bulk purchases.
