I (re)discovered this Ohio Tool #27 Jointer Plane. I remember it from my childhood but I don't remember anyone ever using
That will be a beast of a user!
That's the premium line of tools compared to my Scioto posted above. Wedge the handle forward when you remount it. If the mouth is too wide, you can always resole it, but with the density of that tool, it plowed thru knots for me. Comfy handle too.

I've got an unmarked 26" plane, I need to get bigger wood, and a clearer bench to use it.

Early pre-lateral Stanley 4½ smooth plane (Type 4). It is 10” long with a 2 3/8” wide cutter.

Stanley began manufacturing the 4½ smooth planes in 1884, and late that year introduced the lateral adjustment lever, which became the defining feature of the Type 5s and all subsequent Types. As a result, the Type 4 was likely produced for less than a full year in 1884.
