• All of the features of the previous, except:
• "STANLEY", inside the notched rectangle, with "MADE IN U.S.A." is now the new logo stamped on the cutter. This is identical to the previous logo, except the heart and "S.W." have been removed.
• A kindney-shaped hole in the lever cap replaced the old symmetrical keyhole-shaped hole. This was touted as making the cutter less likely to loosen when the depth was adjusted; the lever cap wouldn't be apt to move (along its length) as much.
• The toe now has a raised, broad, flat rib cast into it. A similar rib is found at the heel.
• The frog now has an ogee-shape (s-shape) to the back, on either side of the lateral adjustment lever.
