    Default Replacement blade for #53 spokeshave

    I have Stanley #53 spokeshave, but need a new blade for it. Anyone know which blade I should use and where to buy it? The hole in the blades of the newer model spokeshaves is too large for the front screw.

    Also, I noticed that the blade I currently have bends in the centre. Maybe due to not much cutter left.

    Derek, thanks for suggesting the Hock blade. Ron stated that the replacement blade for the #53 spokeshave is the 2" wide #SP200 blade (see #SP200 blade ). Since the #53 has an adjustable throat, it has to be disassembled at the hinge (take out the hinge pins) in order to replace the thin Stanley blade with the thicker Hock blade. Note: metal must be removed from the underside of the hinged part to allow for the thicker blade. Anyway, all the info is at the Hock site.
