October is here, with it's shorter days and colder nights. Got a good
run of fresh goods on here including some hand to find blacksmith items.
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.
Oldtools terms, except on items and orders over $100, if I don't know ya
or haven't done business in the past (and my records good way back..)
then it's pre-pay. 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!

T H Witherby 3 Inch Slick Chisel & Original Handle. Measuring 15 1/8"

body has some frosting on the back and the front. The edge will need
some work. The socket is good. The maple handle is the original one.
That is good other than some stains. This ain't pristine but it sure
ain't bad and these guys sure are getting few and far between of late.

need some work. The handle is original as is the bolt. That does
remove but it takes some work to get it in and out. The handle has a
void on the one side and a check at the end but it's solid. This ain't

lightly scratched user initials. The back of the blade has some very
light pitting and a user name as well. THe edges and corners are good.

the edges on that are good as well. This is true according to my
reference square here. This ain't minty but considering that it is at
the least, 127 years old and probably a whole lot older than that, well
it sure ain't bad. $30.00

good other than some frosting. The sole has a patch of light pitting
and some frosting. There are scratch marks on both sides of the mouth

adjuster works as well. This will need a blade. The rosewood handle
has a chip off of the turning where the screw is, but I put it back on
with the pretty side up. There are some dings but it's solid. All the
screws work and were oiled. This ain't the prettiest but these guys are

is faint. This is in reasonably good condition and was cleaned. The
blade has some staining and a few frosted spots but nothing too bad.

wear, but it's not completely worn out. The screw for the blade clamp
and the rod for the clamp head both work and were oiled. The screws on
the sole also remove. This will need a blade. Minty picked up and

condition and was not cleaned. There is some wear to the plating and
some light patina on the base. The clear level vial is good and the
protective cover rotates. The vial assembly does wiggle a little. The
base is good other than the wear and patina. This ain't minty but

all the rulings are readable. The point is good and the screw works.

pitting and patina. The socket also has some pitting and some dings.
The handle is old and might be the original one one. That is in fair

Machinist Tools
L S Starrett Machinist 12 Inch 3 Piece Combination Square. This weighs
1 lb 10 1/2 oz unboxed. This is in reasonable condition and was
cleaned. The rule has some stained and frosted spots along with user
initials, but nothing too bad and all the rulings are readable. The
edges and corners are crispy. The square head has some wear to the
finish and the same user initials and shop number marked on it. The
vertical machined face has a couple of light spots of pitting down by
the slot but it's clean for the most mark and the miter face is good
other than some staining. This even has the scribe. The protractor is
a No. 490 bevel edge. The face on that is good, the finish has a little
wear and some funky spots. The locking screws and tabs are good on both
and the screws for the protractor head both work. Both of the clear
levels are good to go. This ain't minty but for a used tool, well it
sure ain't bad. $65.00

Working & Collectible Tools
Emmert Turtleback Patternmaker Vise To Restore. This is in as found,
fresh from the shop condition. There is a bunch of saw dust residue and
shop patina from decades of use. The front jaw wiggles and it looks
like the inside of the front jaw has some chipping around the hole for
the shaft, but I can't say for sure. The hinge on the mounting bracket
doesn't move but I didn't really nuts with it. The main screw does
work. This is missing the tilt bracket and rod but most of the are.
This is what it is but for the money you ain't gonna do much better.
This is PICKUP only here at my shop here in Nesquehoning PA. $265.00

inch), there is no size mark on this one, the next one is a 6, the next
one is an 8, the bottom one is a 10, and they weigh 4 1/4 oz unboxed.
All are in good shape, all were lightly cleaned but they were not bad to
start with. There is a little patina up in the grooves but nothing too
bad. The edges feel good but that doesn't mean that they won't need a
touch-up. None of these are notched for a bitstock. These ain't
perfect but they will get the job done. $18.00
