Some real nice finds this time! If I wasn't over extended already I'd do some exchanging with you. That axe on the top catches my eye. What is it if you don't mind my asking?

That's a clean 3lb Kelly Axe & Tool Jersey and a great hand carved oak handle. Already gone...

Some intriguing stuff there Jb. What’s the axe in the middle that has been cleaned up?

Not sure on the maker, but it's a beefy 5-6lb head with overcoat bit.

I brought some cool stuff home today! Hard to fit in one photo but includes this grind wheel and 10’ felling saw.

The grind stone was taken care of. Not stored in the sun or kept in a tire full of water making a soft spot.

Couple more items. The Mast Axe is a Zenith and the pickaroon has a sweet octagonal handle.

Wow amazing stuff right there!!! I’m

Super nice!

BTW your shop is too clean lol.

This jack is a beast! It’s not as old but it’s twice as heavy as my other. I think this one with the claw on the back is a Timber Jack or Logging Jack specifically.

A Grab Maul with some of a Columbia label left on it. Ugh! No wonder guys didn’t want to be the one to carry this tool, and it only did one job.

I'd like to see you're whole collection. It's clearly getting pretty good.

Give me about an hour in that shop and I'll knock the shiny off it for you

LoL Thank you guys very much. (That’s not my “work” shop.)

Better than Packwood in my opinion.
Lot of awesome in one day’s score!

I don’t think I’ve seen a log dog driver in the wild... ever. Still has the spike in the end and all! How much does it weigh?

That saw just keeeeeeeps goooing!

Look like saw hammers - nice ones at that.

ithinkverydeeply · May 25, 2019

This ones handle says a lot and the head is in such good shape.

Agent_H · May 25, 2019

This beautiful grouping of tools sure doesn’t seem like what I find in some random “Honey Hole”.

Soft wood?

Seriously, that's a gem.

This kids box was pretty full of tools that had nothing to do with original contents. After pulling some things out this is what I thought may have came with it. I bet a full box is pretty hard to come by, kids being kids.

itvd--Weed Broad Axes are right up there with Beatty and Douglas and a few others as far as quality goes. Yours looks like it could start hewing with very little work. Nice find!
