Unbranded Made In England Smoothing Plane - Can anyone give me a brand name ?

The mouth, while it's open, is not open enough for a Stanley No. 40 or equivalent.  The mouth on those is wide enough for a Siamese cat to slip through, although a fatter cat might have trouble.  The shavings from a scrub plane often resemble gouge chips more than plane shavings.

Hello,, Bill I agree!!! The Stanley No. 40 uses an "extra thick convex shaped cutter" 1-1/4" wide. From John Walter's book on Stanley Tools. Regards, Lou

So in that case the mystery continues
