If you have questions about what the Stanley numbers are, you can
look the planes up on Blood&Gore:

Sometimes, emails to/from me are vectored to some cyber black
hole, never reaching their destination. I answer all emails, so if
you haven't heard from me, your/my email is likely having high tea
in said black hole, never to be heard from, so please try again.
Please email me prior to sending money so that you can be sure
the item is still up for grabs. Also, prices do not include shipping,
which is the amount that it takes to go from me to you via the US
Post Office.
This list goes out to many people, normally on the first of the
month (unless otherwise noted above). So, if you see something you
want, it's the quickest finger on the trigger that wins the duel.
Some folks become upset that they miss out on a tool. I wish I had
lots of this stuff many times over so I can satisfy the demand, but
that is normally not the case. Some of it does have duplicates here,
and if so, I will state that in my reply to you.
Also, due to the nature of selling over the wires, tools are sold
on a first come, first serve basis. The first person to say "I'll
take it", gets it. I have to operate this way as some will take a
few days to get back to me with their interest in a particular item,
and it's unfair to keep others waiting who are willing to buy the
item immediately.
I reserve the right to correct typographical errors after the list
goes out. I rarely make them, but when I do they can be major ones.
If you're the kind of person who puts a straightedge to the sole of
a #40, to check it for flatness, or who tosses a plane on a scale to
weigh it against what it states in the Stanley catalogs, you'll need
to take your business elsewhere. I'll wish you luck finding perfection
in something that was never made, nor intended to be, perfect. You guys
know who you are, and it's best for both of us that our paths not cross.
Remember, you don't have to be a connoisseur (did I spell that
correctly) to shop here. You can be a wirehead, a metalhead, a zipper-
head, a propellerhead, a deadhead, a cokehead, or even a knuckle
dragging oaf, just like me, to shop here, as long as your dinero is
green.
Thanks for shopping, and remember that no letters or words were
injured when writing this list...
FEATURED TOOL OF THE MONTH
******** **** ** *** *****
FT1 A lowly Sargent No.2204 steel block in an extremely rare
configuration; the plane was first advertised in a 1913
Sargent catalogue, this one is custom made to promote it at
the Connecticut Hardware Association's meeting during February
25th & 26th, 1914 given as a souvenir for the attendees;
stamped at the toe "C.H.A. FEB.25-26-1914" the plane is
entirely chrome plated, including the iron; fit in a custom
box, with a label that notes the location of the meeting,
The Taft Hotel, New Haven, formally a luxurious place where
presidents stayed, it was built three years earlier - booming
times in New Haven then; some quick web searching shows the
association had just 130 members during that year which was
90% of all hardware dealers in the state during that time,
dues of $5.00/year and with the president James De Phelps
of Windsor Locks; also, an entry in the Hardware Dealer's
Magazine states that a fair number of members attend the
meets, but complains at length that more should attend; given
this, it's probable a small batch were made for only those
who attended, this example may be the only survivor, but
if not, it's no doubt the best as it was never used and
still glistens like the day it was made; offered without
apology, and one that never left New Haven area until a week
ago, it punches well above its weight as a wee lightweight
that ounce for ounce has more significance than most that
are considered heavyweights in the tool squared circle; a
standard production model is included to display with this
amazing item, but if you can't bear the thought of it being
anywhere near the plated one, hand it to your pit bull to
give it a gnawing:

*******

1/4" chisel so that a curl is lifted where a nail/brad is

unused, the image fails to capture its condition; top

ST38 #46 dado plane; a cleaner than usual example, with 11
cutters (counting the slitter) in their wooden sleeve,
its one of Stanley's best planes; a sound worker, the
wooden sleeve has two notches worked on it likely so
a length of twine could be used to secure the top to
the bottom while not in use; as is usually the case, the
small stop for the tonguing cutter is missing in action:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t56.jpg $265.00

very popular, various widths from 1/4" to 2" (some duplicate
widths), three of the narrower ones were deliberately
ground with a skew to work dovetails or similar; top; a
clean group that can be honed and used as is; top:

ST71 Three spoke shaves; a #51 flat sole with most japanning and
some paint splatters; an earlier #53 adjustable mouth with
flat sole, it's pre-1900 manufacture; and a #55 concave
for rounding, it has little japanning; all three will make
fine workers; bottom three:

ST72 Six #750 chisels; all but one with original handles, most
not marked with model number (often the case for these);
widths of 1/4", 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1 1/4", and 2", this one
being stamped with model number and missing the handle; as
found, will clean to be fine workers; top pile:

ST73 #X-226 advertising zigzag rule in its original box; never
used, it advertises the Custom Built Cabinet Co. Inc.,

uncommon to find these in this condition and in the box;

ST74 #G5 Gage jack plane; a design Stanley bought, they opted
to offer it as a metallic plane as well as the wooden style
made popular by Gage Plane Co. of Vineland, NJ; earlier
production with patent date embossed behind the frog and
"No.5" at the heel; as found, no damage, all original
parts, a bit grimy, it's a clever design that allows the
iron to maintain its set after it's removed for a honing;
top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t122.jpg $110.00
ST75 Same as previous, but the #G4 smoothing plane size; same

tight crack that will easily glue to be visible as a
hairline; bottom:

ST76 #239 special dado plane; the model with the fence, it cuts
a 1/8" dado or groove; offered for parts/restoration, one
of the lobes on the spur snapped off, it needs some filing
to put it right; the nose of the 'skate' was shaped by an
owner as it likely was too long for some custom job; depth
stop parted company long ago; sounds like a dog, but it's
clean and can be made usable; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t123.jpg $75.00
ST77 #2 smoothing plane; a ca.1900 example that's free of damage,
it's been nicely cleaned; originally found with a "STANLEY"
lever cap, I swapped that out for an appropriate vintage
lever cap by Stanley, you may want to clean that to match
the plane; top left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t49.jpg $285.00
ST78 #15 1/2 squirrel tail block plane; a 100% honest example
that hasn't been cobbled together, it's a ca.1900 "B"
casting; as found, no damage, grungy from sitting, it'll
clean easily to make it much nicer than what's normally
found; top right
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t49.jpg $275.00
ST79 #48 match plane; japanned Victorian casting, as found con-
dition, free of damage, the most popular metallic plane
for cutting the tongue and groove joint; bottom:

ST80 Unique type 11 #4C corrugated smoothing plane that's heavily
engraved on both cheeks and lever cap; very well done by a
gifted engraver, it has the standard acanthus leaf details
that surround "STANLEY", "BAILEY No.4", and "PLANE"; free of
damage, the plane saw little use and has all original parts
that are proper to the ca.1915 era; not recently done, it
has good age, it equally can be used and admired:

ST81 #52 shooting board for the #51 plane; 100% complete and
with original parts, very clean and ready to use, it also
accepts the modern shooting planes; nearly all finish
remains, a side plate was added to it can be clamped in
the vise to keep it still, a feature Stanley should have
offered on it; boards are much more difficult to find
than the planes are:

**** ******
WP1 Larger smoothing plane with steel plating at toe to make a,
very fine mouth; by Ohio Tool, the plane is roughly the
size of a #4 1/2, it has a razee back where the closed
tote is secured; tote has the unique shape for right hand
use, this one saw barely any use, it can be honed and used
as is; 2 3/8" wide iron, this is a fine plane and not the
usual flammable only smoother; owner mark; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t6.jpg $155.00
WP2 Panel raiser with adjustable fence for working different
size panels; very well made, looks to be professionally,
but with only owner mark, it's fit with a Sandusky double
iron that's skewed to allow working any grain direction;
with nicker to score the grain to make a crisp field,
it saw little use; 12" long, a fine worker; bottom:

WP4 Box chamfer plane; like most, it's owner made, it was the
standard design used by countless woodworkers in England
and was so popular a pair of enterprising men patented it
in the US; clean, and fully functional, the adjustable
portion of the sole (this is the 'box') is slid up/down
to set the cutting width; a harmless chip on the sole at
the toe, the plane can be honed and used as is; left:

boxwood, the wedge, which looks to be original, is a dark
rosewood; in never abused condition, with owner mark, some
minor chipping on the threads, nothing out of the ordinary,
it can be used and/or admired as is, ebony is a scarcer
exotic than rosewood for such plows:

WP8 H.Wetherell single iron sash; a late 18th century example

vertical grain tote and lignum strike button, 14 1/2" long,

WP16 Cove and astragal by Isaac Field/Providence; a maker who
apprenticed to Jo.Fuller, he learned his lessons well as
his stuff is finely made; originally made for 3/4" thick
stock, the stop was pared a bit to make it work 7/8" thick
stock, a simple strip of wood can be added to make it work
3/4", or less, thick stock; owner mark:

WP21 Early sun plane with tote; likely ca.1800, it has an early
profile to the offset tote, the round top wedge secured a
similarly shaped single iron; flat chamfers, the wood has
figure and looks to be yellow birch; in overall fine shape,
it never saw hard use, which is rare for a cooper's tool,
there are many inactive worm holes, the wood's integrity
hasn't been compromised; top:

maker in the manner of John Sleeper, this one saw little

WP23 J.R.Tolman Hanover MA v-grooving plane; made like a con-
ventional slide arm plough, the sole is V-shape that cuts
to a set depth via a depth stop; generally thought to be
a shipwright's plane, and that's probably true, it's also
very useful for those who make moldings with hollow and
round planes, it can cut squares and define tracks on
which a round can follow; in fine shape, free of damage,
it saw little use and can be honed and used as is; top:

Boston's most notable makers, it has his Front St. location
as part of the stamp; great proportions, little used, a

plane, with owner initials, Tileston is one of America's
finest planemakers:

an uncommon profile with good proportions, it's as found,
never cleaned, with some old stain the dripped along the

perfect, it stands proud of the mortice, a couple of swipes
with a plane on the front edge will seat it properly;

old finish remains, owner mark:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t126.jpg $140.00
WP36 I.Sleeper 27 1/2" jointer; among the planes of any 18th
century maker, the bench planes rank high on the rarity
scale, especially jointers of this length, as they got
used heavily and often ended up being cut up for scrap
wood or burned; this is a remarkable survival likely due
to its iron being missing in action long ago; with a
closed tote, lignum strike button, the bed was never
reworked for a double iron; very dark patina, owner mark,
the wedge looks to be original, oddly the heel shows
a fair bit of banging, the 'tangs' were docked; as luck
would have it, after photographing and describing the
plane, two days ago I found a similar vintage jointer at
my local market with a Newbould iron that fits this plane
like a glove; top:

MS27 Fine bark spud; an adjective rarely used to describe a tool
that's normally as homely as a Sharpei, this one really is
a fine example that likely is manufactured; with the flat
worked on the forging so it can be struck to cut into the

MS103 Brass and ebony 'ultimatum' mortice gauge; the pinnacle
of UK design, the ebony fence is brass plated and travels
along a brass arm; fence and adjustable point are set by
a screw driver; good mass, sound worker shape, owner mark
in wood, not buffed to within an inch of its life, as is
common, a couple minor chips on the backside of the fence
which doesn't reference anything; top left:

MS105 Odd double beading tool with adjustable brass 'fences'
that are similar to chamfer guides like those used on a
common drawknife; likely made for high end coachwork,
it's a patent pending design (main casting has that on
it), it's very well made and saw limited use as most
japanning remains; each clamping area has a cutter in
it, overall length of 13 1/2"; fences are angled so
that the tool can be pitched over non-standard surfaces;
a nice thing; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t64.jpg $295.00
MS106 Clean Sargent No.407 smoothing plane; the company's #2
size plane, with all original parts, no damage, an owner
made a hang tag for it and put an inventory number on a
piece of paper (that's the white paper you see); a good
alternative as a worker to the Stanley and at a lesser
cost; top left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t65.jpg $195.00
MS107 1 1/2" (1/16"over) firmer chisel with original steel hoop
handle; made to be struck, it can chop and pare equally

fine quality worker; middle:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t66.jpg $45.00
MS108 1" firmer chisel with original steel hoop handle; made by
Greenlee, designed to be struck or pushed, it saw little
use; back has been partially polished, it can be honed
and used as is; fine quality; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t66.jpg $55.00
MS109 Uncommon J.W.Craig June 7, 1868 patent brace; in fine
shape and fully functional, the chuck has a unique spring
loaded lever that swings outward when the spring steel
catch at the bottom is lifted away from the chuck; a
clever and well made design, it never sold well and is
now a collectible tool; no maker marks I can see, it's
identical to the patent drawing; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t67.jpg $165.00
MS110 Three machinist's bevels; each different, as found with
normal grime/tarnish, each usable; a 3" Brown&Sharpe, a
6" Starrett, and a three piece Sawyer (he worked at
Starrett and left to start his own company in Fitchburg)
for compound layout; each best quality; bottom right

MS111 Graduated set of eight plough plane irons; numbers 1 to
8, each in clean and little used condition, none of the
usual mushrooming from being struck, they all appear
with same surface and condition, which suggests they've
always been together, seven are by Moseley&Sons/London,
one with a C.Nurse mark, Nurse was a retailer and it's
possible they ran out of irons and swapped one of theirs
to fill an order; each can be honed and used as is; top
left group:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t73.jpg $125.00
MS112 4" drawknife with chamfer guides; splayed handle design,
these likely were made by Peck, Stow & Wilcox and then
branded for countless retailers; a clean worker, the
guides have their keeper to maintain the width of cut
after they've been removed from the drawknife; never
abused, a good amount of original finish remains; top
right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t73.jpg $110.00
MW113 Starrett three piece combination square; the head and
rule are the carpenter's model and are of the same quality
as other Starrett squares, the rule isn't scaled to 1/16"
and the square head was never fit with a scribe, the vial
is original; a machinist's protractor and centering heads
were added; as found, normal cosmetic loss, a sound
worker; top:

MS114 ca.1825-1859 small surveyor's compass in its original
wooden case; just 11" long, roughly half the side of
typical, the needle is 3 3/4" long engraved Megary New
York, it's likely by Alexander Megary, who was born 1790
in Ireland and died 1850 in New York; with the removable
sighting vanes, it has its mounting collar for a staff;
never abused, good patina, never polished, needle still
locks after turning the screw from below; one of the
box's internal piece of wood came unglued; these smaller
compasses are much less common than the standard size

MS115 Three Fox's Combined Square and Miter squares in their
original packaging and box; the label states Fred G.
Breul Tool Works, of Bridgeport, CT, as the manufacturer,
the squares are stamped General by General Hardware Mfg.
Co. of New York, it's likely that the CT firm sold the
business and the old packaging was used up; 10" size,
pressed steel construction, one is out of its packaging
and shows signs of handling; a common as mud tool in a
very rare box; some tape on the box, it's structurally
fine; left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t76.jpg $190.00
MS116 Four useful tools; a Stanley #61 marking gauge with the
sweetheart logo and graduated arm; a #136 1/2 6" caliper
rule; a Lowentraut 6" divider with fine adjustment; and
a two-foot, four-fold #61 boxwood rule by Chapin-Stephens;

MS118 Curved edge drawknife; ideal for hollowing, it's roughly
7 1/2" from end to end of the cutting length; smith made,

MS121 Rare Upson Nut #15 style block plane; first I've seen,
it's patterned off the Stanley #15 with an adjustable
mouth and vertical nut to set the iron, it never had a
lateral lever; excelsior main casting, the iron is
stamped "THE UPSON NUT Co."; free of damage, good amount
of original japanning, the company was prophetic with
their name, they were nuts with their products, many of
which are rather poor quality, they were demolished by
the plane juggernaut to the south, Stanley; one for a
collector; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t79.jpg $255.00

as a carry handle at the top; raised panel front,

one dates to the 1920's, this New York City only retailed
the best; 7" x 14 1/2" x 22":

over the bench or on the stone; top left:

MS125 J.Stevens A.&T. (arms & tools) plated plumb bob with in-
tegral spool as well as a larger wooden spool added by an
owner; a great quality maker that's never could outproduce
Starrett, their quality is just as good, the tools it sold
were first used on the arms manufactured; a very uncommon
tool by this company, it's in great shape; bottom left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t83.jpg $110.00
MS126 Group of 7 owner made screw drivers, very well done, they
have London pattern style octagonal handles; lengths from
7 3/4" to 19 3/4", there are duplicate length, perhaps he
planned to offer them for sale; as found in a tray out of
a tool chest, with owner mark, most finish remains on the
handles; found with the next item; right pile:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t83.jpg $145.00
MS127 20+ miscellaneous handles tools found with the previous
lot; well made, many with the same kind of handle as the
previous screw drivers, there's a dogleg float, a couple
chasing tools, carving chisels, triangular files, gouges,
etc.; in sound shape, well made, a good group:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t84.jpg $125.00
MS128 Precision divider by J.Stevens Arms&Tools; the Chicopee,
MA company known more for its rifles, the tools used to
manufacture them proved to work so well that they were
also manufactured to sell to the public; great quality,
little used, most nickel plating remains, the two legs
telescope within the arms, each has a fast taper to
allow working closer to obstructions; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t85.jpg $125.00
MS129 G.W.Bradley hewing axe; a fine quality example in much
nicer than usual condition, it never was allowed to be-
come a rust farm; minor tarnish, later handle has good
offset so you don't turn your knuckles to ground flesh;
11 1/2", this beast can also be used as a side axe, if
you're into pumping iron; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t90.jpg $175.00
MS130 Gunmetal shoulder plane in the pattern of Spiers' work;
very well done, lots of tin in this one gives it lighter
color than usual, it's free of modification and can be
honed and used as is; fortunately it never was one the
wrong side of a buffing wheel; great mass, 1 3/8" wide,
wedge and stuffing look to be walnut; normal bang marks
on heel from backing off the wedge; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t90.jpg $265.00
MS131 Siegley SsS #21 transitional plane in its original box;
a very uncommon #2 size plane that is probably unused,
just a very minor and localized scuff mark on the sole
suggests one pass on wood or it may have occurred during
assembly; made by Stanley, the box is structurally fine
though with some tape on it, though not on the label,
the cover has some creasing; a great addition to a
serious collection of #2 size planes; left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t91.jpg $785.00
MS132 Victor No.2 1/4 squirrel tail block plane; offered for
parts/restoration, the lever cap's knob is gone, the
iron is a replacement, and the casting that secures the
metallic grip broke long ago, a steel mount is peened
on the plane; simply replacing the lever cap and putting
a proper iron in it will have it looking proper, it's
a bargain price over what a complete one fetches; some
mouth roughness and the common cracking at sides of the
mouth radiating back toward the heel, it's nonetheless
a respectable example; bottom right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t92.jpg $385.00
MS133 Unused and in the original box Kunz #112 scraper; only in
need of a sharpening, it's a sound alternative to the more

Kunz couldn't mess up; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t93.jpg $85.00
MS134 Winchester No.3005 #4 size smoothing plane; made by Sargent
for the famed rifle maker that decided to offer a wide
range of products, this one is a less common variant as the
Winchester name is not embossed on the main casting, the
lever cap and iron do have the name; as found, with all
original parts, no damage, a sound worker with a hint of
localized rust on the sole; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t93.jpg $85.00
MS135 Smaller side axe; with a 4" long edge, still with some
original finish, original handle, it can be honed and used
as is; made for right hand use, it's a useful tool for
removing a lot of waste prior to the finer tools doing
their thing; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t94.jpg $65.00
MS136 Luthier's plane with squirrel tail handle; 1 7/8" bronze

MS137 Record 09 1/2 block plane; a copy of the popular Stanley
plane, but in blue finish and with more mass, it's as
found with some superficial rust that will clean; no need
to put your owner mark on it as that was done by a pre-
vious owner using red paint; will make a solid worker;
top left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t95.jpg $35.00
MS138 Odd holder for weights used on a scales; the Dent Automatic
Weight Holder patented October 8, 1895 and made in Detroit,
MI, it has circular cutouts to put weights in, below each
is a hinged flap to make it easier to remove the weight,
the spring loaded flap is opened by pressing a movable
button; hinged metal cover, it seems like overkill, but no
idea was too crazy to patent in America; top:

MS139 Sheffield beech brace with turned lignum head that has nice
grain pattern; the most common style of wooden brace, it
has a brass chuck with push button activated spring to
catch the bit; clean, free of damage, owner mark, head is
a bit wobbly, but still sound for use, it's the tool to
use to turn center bits and similar; bottom left:

MS140 Super clean Barber's Improved patent 12" sweep brace as
made by Millers Falls; with turned lignum head that has

MS144 Union No.X6 fore plane; embossed with the patent date at
the heel, it's as found with all original parts, someone
bored a hang hole at the heel, but it may be a peep hole
for prying eyes to watch union planes unioncating; top:

MS145 Woodcraft polled adze; smaller than usual, it can be used
with one or two hands; 3 1/4" edge, it saw little use,
there's storage grime from sitting; handle has the Wood-
craft name, it looks to be a ca.1975 product and likely
was made in Germany for the company; bottom:

of exotic wood (one looks to be ebony), they are handy
to use for marking off a trued edge to make parallel
edges; the mahogany one is manufactured as the beam is
graduated, there's no maker mark; owner marks, the long-

boxes; 69 boxes, each with more than one in them, it would
be a chore to list all the patterns, they are finer ones

Grobet, there are several hundred, the max length being
7"; a bargain over what these would cost new, they aren't
a recent manufacture:

Buck Bros., scuffs to the forging should polish out;
left two:

with four countersinks; as found, some with original straw

3/8" to 2", all should prove usable; right pile:

MS173 Preston bull nose rabbet, the model that became the Record

placement handles, forgings are pre-WWII and in sound

Buck Bros. stuff over all others; bottom four:

MS177 Millers Falls No.772 10" sweep brace; unused, with most

be used as is or added to a collection; full ratchet,

MS178 Charles Sperry January 20, 1891 pipe wrench (listed as a
tong in the patent title); a rare thing, first I've seen,
it has a rack worked on one leg with a spring-loaded pawl
on the other leg, the lower jaw can slide through a slot
cut in the leg with the rack; stamped with the patent
date, it's 16 1/2" long; free of damage and dark, even
patina overall; bottom:

MS179 Shapely and different double rabbeting shave; very well
made, and one I believe was manufactured as a raw casting
that was fit by the buyer, it's no doubt one carriage-
makers uses; a looped grip at each end, it was made to
rock over the worker, where the top handle is pulled
while the bottom could be held still, something done to
cut broad curvatures, or both grips could be pulled
together to cut standard rabbets; like many, it's fit
with a Stanley 2" spoke shave iron and lever cap; finely
made, barely used, nice patina, 12" long, a graceful
thing; top left:

MS180 Bronze copy of a Defiance style block plane; very well
done, probably one made by a patternmaker for his own
use after seeing his coworker's; good mass and patina,
7 7/8" long, it has the clever lever cap style found
on some of the Bailey Tool Co.'s products; owner initial
stamped on side, the Stanley Rule & Lever iron needs to
be reground; top right:

MS181 Millers Falls No.14 jack plane; earlier production with
rosewood knob and tote, it saw very little use, the
finish glistens and is glossy; a couple of insignificant
pit spots well behind the mouth from sitting; can be
honed and used as is; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/nov/t131.jpg $90.00
MS182 Sargent No.514 low angle jack plane; one of the best planes
offered by any maker, it shames the popular Stanley #62;
with all original parts and no damage, the main casting is
more rugged than the #62, the adjuster is Norris-like in
that the set and lateral adjustment of the cutter are done
with a single screw; an easier to use mouth adjuster has
two lugs that are easy to move; free of damage, all original
parts, nearly all japanning remains, there is superficial
rust on the cheeks, more on one side than the other, all of
it will quickly clean; forget about the others, old and
new, this is the one to own; bottom:

MS183 142 (not a typo, "one hundred and forty two" in Nigerian
cocoa magnate speak) Pfeil Swiss Made carving chisels
that never tasted a single morsel of wood; all bought by
a would-be carver, the only carving they did was to his
bank account, which is fortunate for you as the entire
lot is priced considerably less than what they'd do to
your bank account if bought new today; worthy of your
grandmother's sterling silverware chest as storage, if
instant gratification is your thing, here it is in
spades:
