Ed,

Great serendipity. I was given on of my 67s by my sister-in-law (it was her
dad's) and bought the other. Now I have two, one with the flat sole and one with
the round sole. I use them both.

It may be heresy to say this, but I prefer my round-bottom Stanley 67 to my
Millers Falls cigar shaves.

Cheers,

handle would be a good idea.  You can unscrew one handle and screw it into a
socket on the top of the body.  Well, 15 years later and I still haven’t
sharpened the blade.

sole on it.  The next weekend I found the round sole in a box at a flea for 50
cents.  I would not have recognized it if I had not bought the tool the previous
weekend.
