I came across this old vise that was hidden away in the corner of the shop. It was so "chunkified" with rust, it wouldnt swivel and was pretty sad looking. So I "de-chunkified" it with some Evapo-rust, a bit of elbow grease, and a wire brush. It looks and works great now. Well worth the effort. Do you have any "hidden treasures" in your shop? If so, lets see them!

The vise says "Wards Master Quality/ Malleable Iron" if you can't read it from the pic.

Forgive me if this doesn't turn out right, I'm having trouble figuring out the options for the Knifemaker membership. -Matt-
 
Nice vice, It looks almost new, How is it that there is stuff in your shop that you didn't put there???

Ha! Perhaps I should clarify my original post. I put this vise with some other stuff crammed in the corner of the shop that hardly ever sees the light of day. I should have said that I forgot I had it. It part of some of my wife's great-uncles shop tools that we inherited about 3 years ago.
