A taste of winter and then a taste of spring.  This February has 
definitely been a weird one weather wise.  Got a bunch of fresh goodies 
in this list for just about every trade and taste.

PayPal is now accepted and preferred (if you use it) on all items. It's 
easier for me to ship items through there, especially First Class 
ones.   Checks and money orders are still welcome.

And remember........da more ya buy, the cheaper they fly!

First contact (that is e-mail, or phone) that says I want it gets it.  
Prices do not include shipping.  All items are shipped with Delivery 
Confirmation. Insurance, unless it is a big order or a very fragile item 
is optional. Just let me know. Also, I am shipping a lot more stuff via 
First Class mail. There will be a small amount added to the shipping 
cover the cost of the padded mailer. I don't get them for free.

Please put your name and address in the message. Saves time and email 
traffic!

Fenton & Marsden Sheffield Brass & Rosewood Level. Measuring 8 15/16" 
long, 1 1/16" wide, 1" high, and this weighs 13 1/4 oz unboxed.  The 
original Fenton & Marsden were Sheffield toolmakers in business from 
1839 until 1847, however the mark was used by the Marsden Brothers until 
1899.  The mark is a little faint but can be read.  This is in 
reasonably good condition and was cleaned.  Both upper and lower brass 
plates have some dings and scuffs.  The clear level vial is good.  The 
rosewood body is also good.  The large screw at the end on the underside 
is used to level this and that works.  This ain't pristine but these 
guys sure do not show up very often, at least around here.  $30.00

bad patina wise.  Both of the creases are good.  All the wheels turn 
smoothly and leave a good mark.  The handles have some dings and wear 
and a few tiny bits of paint down in the grain.  These ain't minty but 
they are the tools to have for this kind of work.  $125.00

Stanley No 3 Type 16 Smooth Or Smoothing Plane.  This weighs 3 lbs 3/4 
oz unboxed.  This is a Type 16 and was made by Stanley between 1933 and 
1941.  This is in reasonably good condition and was cleaned.  The sides 
have some frosting, dings, and some small spots of light pitting.  The 
sole also has some frosting, light dings, and scratches.  The japanning 
is original and about 95% overall. There is a little funky and a few 
tiny bits of paint that didn't want to come off.  The lever cap is good 
for the most part, the plating is flaked a little on the one side of the 
lever, there are some dots on the body, and a little glazing.  The 
chipbreaker is good.  The blade has some patina on the exposed areas and 
the back but the cutting face is clean and there is lots to work with.  
The edge has some chips but the blade will need a sharpening anyways.  
The tote and knob are good other than some light dings.  All the screws 
work and were oiled.  This ain't minty but overall it sure ain't bad.

back of the blade has a couple of lightly pitted spots, some frosting,

it.  $28.00

some gunk on it but the vial is good.  The steel rule has some frosting 
and light pitting and the top of the thumb slot is worn so you have to

and there are thin checks on both sides of the slot but it's solid 
enough to use.  The hole for the tang of the bit was tapered a little on

There is the usual patina found on these tools.  Both edges have been 
dressed down a bit and could stand a touch up.  The punched eye is good 
other than the fact that it's on a little bit of an angle to the body 
(the blacksmith must have had a rough night eh?).  These guys sure have 
been few and far between of late. $20.00

the blade is in tight thanks to a lead ferrule that is big enough to use 
as a spare tire on a Mini Cooper.  There are some dings on the end.  
This ain't pristine but these older ones rarely are and it is a quality

Two Paring Chisels.  The upper one is a 1/4" Dunlap, measuring 6 7/8" 
overall, the blade is 4 1/2" long, the lower one is a 3/4" Worth, 
measuring 6 9/16" overall, the blade is 4" long,  and they weigh 6 1/2

condition and were cleaned.  The Dunlap is clean on the back and overall 
other than a few dots on the socket.  The Worth has some overall 
staining and a scuff on the back.  The edge on that will need some 
work.  Both sockets are good.  These will need handles, I don't have any

quality tools.  $19.00

Hammer.  The denglestock is  6 1/16" long, the face is 1 3/16" wide,  
the hammer is 9 7/16" overall, the head is 3 5/16" long, the face is 
15/16" square, the peen is 1 1/16" wide, and they weigh 1 lb 10 oz 
unboxed.   Not signed as to the maker.  Now what's a denglestock (also 
spelled dengelstock and a bunch of other ways as well), you ask?  Well 
them old PA Dutch (German) farmers, being of a thrifty (also know as 
cheap) bunch, instead of grinding down their scythe blades, would stick 
the denglestock into a stump or the top of a fence post and using a 
cross peen hammer (called the dengle of all things) would draw out the 
edge of the blade till it was sharp and then dress it with a stone. 
Pretty neat eh?  These are in decent condition and were cleaned.  The 
denglestock has some overall patina and there is some chipping to the 
iron body on the one side where the steel face is laid.  The spike end 
was sharpened recently.  The head on the hammer has some dings, punch 
marks, and user initials. The face has some dings and the peen is good.  
The handle is old and could be the original one.  That has some chipping 
on the front below the eye and stains and dings.  The head is on tight 
thanks to a big wedge that sticks out a little.  These ain't minty but 
sets like these rarely show up anymore.  $45.00

Chapin-Stephens Rosewood Marking Gage Or Gauge.  The beam is 8 11/16" 
long and this weighs 5 oz unboxed.  Not signed as to the maker, but the 
oval head and the parallel lines along the ruled area mark this as one 
of their products.  This is in decent condition and was cleaned.  The 
beam has some wear on the underside and some dings on the top from the 
screw.  The beam is straight and the tip is good.  The head has some 
dings on the edges but no real wear on the faces.  The brass screw 
works.  This ain't minty but these guys sure don't show up very often, 
at least around these here parts.  $17.00

Brown & Sharpe No 800 6 Inch Divider.  Measuring 6 3/4" from the tips to 
the top of the spring, and this weighs 2 3/4 oz unboxed. The mark looks 
to be one of the older ones.  This is in reasonably good condition and 
was cleaned.  There ain't much in the way of patina other than a little 
funky up inside the spring area.  The screw has a few light dings but it 
travels the full distance.  The tips and spring are good to go.  This 
ain't perfect but it is a quality older tool.  $22.00

Two Fulton Socket Firmer Chisels.  The 1/4" is 8 1/4" overall, the blade 
is 5 7/8" long, the 1/2" is 8 1/16" overall, the blade is 5 13/16" long, 
and they weigh 7 1/4 oz unboxed.  These are in decent condition and were 
cleaned.  Both of them have some spots of light pitting on the backs but 
they are clean for the most part.  They also have some light pitting on 
the sides and tops.  The sockets also have some patina and they 1/2" has 
a whisker of mushrooming on the outside.  They will need handles, I 
don't have any here that will fit.  These ain't perfect but they will 
get the job done. $24.00

Two Vintage Buck Bros Brace Bits.  There is a screwdriver bit, measuring 
5/16" across the tip, a countersink bit, 5/8" in diameter, and they 
weigh 3 oz unboxed.  These are in reasonably good condition and were 
cleaned.  Both have some staining and a little frosting but nothing too 
bad.  The tip on the screwdriver was dressed at some point but it's good 
to go.  The edge on the countersink could stand a quick touch up.  The 
tangs have some dings and the screwdriver bit had a little mushrooming 
removed.  These ain't minty fresh but they sure ain't bad.  $15.00

Vintage Stortz Phila Oyster Clam Shucking Knife.  Measuring 8 1/2" 
overall, the head is 2 3/4" long, 1/2" wide, the handle is 3/4" square, 
and this weighs 14 1/4 oz unboxed.  This is in reasonably good condition 
and was cleaned.  The head has some light pitting but that's an 
occupational hazard with these guys.  The edge is good. The handle has 
some scaling left over from when this was made and a little patina as 
well.  There is a wee bit of mushrooming on the end.  This ain't minty 
but it sure ain't bad and Stortz is a collectible maker of these tools.  
$24.00

Stanley No 20 8 Inch Cabinet Makers Try Square.  This weighs 6 3/4 oz 
unboxed.  This is in decent condition and was not cleaned, at least by 
me.  The blade has some spots of rust.  The original bluing is worn.  
The edges and corners are good and all the rulings are readable.  The 
handle has some dings on the edges and a little wear to the original 
finish.  This is true according to my reference square.  This ain't 
minty but it will get the job done.  $16.00

3/4" long (straight across), the face is 11/16" wide, 9/16" high, the 
claws are 1"  wide across the ends, and this weighs 7 oz unboxed.  Not 
signed as to the maker.  This is in decent condition and was cleaned.  
The head has some light pitting and dings on the sides.  The face also 
has some dings and wear and I did rule a file over some sharp bits of 
mushrooming on the edges.  The claws are good.  THe handle is old but 
probably not the original one.  That has some dings and stains but it's 
solid.  I did tap in the wedge and the head is on tight sitting here.  
This ain't perfect but these smaller ones rarely show up much better.  
$18.00

1/4" across the outside of the tips, 3/16" across the insides, and this 
weighs 1 oz unboxed.  Not signed as to the maker.  This is in reasonably 
good condition and was cleaned.  The head has some frosting, staining, 
and a few spots of light pitting.  The edge feels good to the touch.  
The rosewood handle has a repaired check under the ferrule and a few 
light dings.  The head won't be coming out anytime soon either.  This 
ain't pristine but I sure don't sell too many of these guys around with 
this kind of handle.  Just saying.  $18.00

sweep is 8". the jaws are 11/16" across when closed, and this weighs 1

condition and was cleaned.  There is some frosting and light patina 
overall.  The jaws have a little wear on the tips.  There is some funky 
inside the chuck.  The chuck looks like it should rotate but I can't get 
it to move.  The grip and pad are painted hardwood. They have some wear 
to the finish and a few dings but both are solid and spin freely.  This 
ain't the fanciest but it is neat older tool.  $24.00

dings and overall light pitting on the head.  The face has some small 
chips around the edge and some frosting and dings.  The peen also has 
some dings.  The square punched eye is good to go. This ain't pretty or 
perfect but it does have some age to it and it will get the job done.

Detroit Stove Works Anvil Paperweight.  Measuring 4 1/4" long, 2 3/16" 
high, and this weighs 7 1/2 oz unboxed.  There is 22 stamped on the 
base, might be a year or a production run number.  This is in decent 
condition and was lightly cleaned.  Just light brushing and wash to get 
rid of some crusty.  This is some kind of diecast metal.  The original 
gold paint is worn but some of it is present. There is some overall 
patina going on and it is missing a little bit of the horn.  This ain't 
minty but these guys rarely are.  $40.00

Three Vintage Wood Handle Leather Tools.  Top to bottom, there is a No. 
6 edge beveler measuring 5/16" across the outside of the head, 1/8" 
across the inside of the groove, a No. 11 and a No. 18 stitch marking 
wheel, and they weigh 3 1/2 oz unboxed.  Not signed as to the maker.  
These are in decent condition and were cleaned.  The head of the edge 
beveler has some staining near the front of the back and a pitted spot 
farther down, and a little pitting on the sides on the top but nothing 
that will interfere with this being used.  Both of the wheels are good 
and leave a strong mark.  There is a little pitting on the sides and 
shafts.  The handles are japanned hardwood.  They have some wear and 
dings and the grain on the No. 11 is a little rougher.  They are solid 
and the heads are in tight.  These ain't pretty or perfect but they will 
the job done. $50.00

Two Vintage Leather Stitching Awls. The upper one is 4 3/16" long, the 
lower one is 5 3/16" long, and they weigh 1 3/4 oz unboxed. Not signed 
as to the maker. These are in decent condition and were cleaned. The 
handle on the upper one is good other than some stains and the chuck 
works.  The handle on the lower one has some wear around the center but 
it's solid.  The tips both have a little light pitting.  They will need 
a sharpening.  These ain't minty but they sure ain't getting any easier 
to come by.  $18.00

Hand Forged Name Stamp.  Measuring 3 15/16" long, the figures are 1/4" 
high, and this weighs 9 1/4 oz unboxed.  The mark is J. Lundy. Not 
signed as to the maker, there is a different name stamped in a couple of 
places on the handle, my guess is that this was original a stone mason's 
tool.  This is in decent condition and was cleaned. There is some 
overall patina.  The figure was struck a little uneven and has some wear 
but there still is plenty left.  The striking end had some mushrooming 
removed at some point before this got here and that is good to go.  This 
is what it is, but it is a collectible old tool.  $18.00

Blacksmith Hand Forged Slag Chipping Hammer Head.  Measuring 6" long, 1 
1/16" across the straight edge, and this weighs 11 oz unboxed.  Not 
signed as to the maker.  This is in decent condition and was cleaned.  
There is the usual patina found on these tools.  I dressed the pointy 
end a little but that could stand a little more work.  The straight edge 
has a small chip off of the one end and could also stand a little 
dressing.  There is some chipping around the top of the eye but there 
still is plenty there to put on a handle.  This ain't pretty or perfect 
but it will get the job done. $15.00

AMT Chip Carving Knife.  Measuring 2 1/2" from the tip to the top of the 
handle, 8 1/8" overall,  the blade is a little over 3/8" wide, and this 
weighs 2 oz unboxed.  AMT sold several different grades of chip knifes 
and this one of the better ones.  This is in reasonably condition and 
was not cleaned.  The blade is pristine and sharp. The handle has a 
little chipping on the one one edge and there are a couple of checks to 
the grain at the end but it's solid.  This ain't the fanciest but it 
will get the job done.  $14.00
