Stanley #80 Scraper

[walnutjerry]

Just recently bought a Stanley #80 scraper---an ebay find.:-D It has some age on it but basically a good tool. The blade needs regrinding I think. Do any of you guys know what angle bevel should be on it? It did not have a burr on it like you put on a card scraper but I don't THINK it is supposed to.:-? Can anyone get me going in the right direction with this? Thanks a bunch!!

Yep. Mshel pretty much covered it. I have nothing to add to his fine linkage.
