I am just getting started on this myself almost the the same Stanley #4 which I bought off of eBay. I found a flow chart to date it and I will try to figure out how old it is. I have been following a similar process. Right now I have the sole flattened. All of the big scratches are gone. I only took it to 320 because that was the finest I had. Keep up the good work. Now I can read part 2. Looking forward to part 3. Excellent timing. I am just getting started on this myself almost the the same Stanley #4 which I bought off of eBay.
