A few pics i managed this evening.

Thank you mum!

The funny looking drawknife looks to be a Cooper's chamfer shave.

Makes sense. I didn't notice the blade curve in the initial photo. If you're wanting to shape chair seats for comfort something like this ought to work. One hand to steady for the cut and the other to make the sweep.

I have an old worth brace my great uncle gave me.. doesn't need it anymore since he had a heart attack. He used to work on pipelines in West Virginia

You have something that looks like a whetstone with a wingnut sticking out the end. What is that?

What a gem, and those handles are definitely sweet too.

Picked up this plumb yesterday from a guy that answered an add for old pocket knives. I liked the hatchet better than the knives but I did roll 2 knives in to seal the deal. Before and after pics. It cleaned up well, just need a little blo in the eye. The head is tight so no need to reset the wedge, if it starts to loosen i will. Original handle with the take up screw. Pre perma bond. Already had the sheath so it was nice to match the old pair up.

That did clean up great and looks amazing.
Love the original hang, not just the original handle rehung, that's amazing.

Great score!
