Rare James Howarth Coachmakers Hewing Hatchet
$195
New Item This Week
This hatchet was made by Howarth at the Broom Spring Works. It has a 7in face with a deep rounded heel at the back that allows you to grip close to the head for fine work. It's a pattern made by many smiths, sometimes called a bearded axe or bench axe. The Sheffield makers called these coachmaker's axes. It has a single bevel with a flat back. The handle is straight, not offset. The back has no pitting. The handle is excellent. It's an early edge tool with a forge-welded blade. There are some seams in the weld that might look like cracks in the photos, but are normal. It's 100% usable and an excellent example overall. It's the first I've come across. $195

The planes have been used and have light wear but no damage. They have steel-clad fences for wear resistance. Both blades are still usable. They are a true matched pair. $45
Early IOHN GREEN Sash Fillister

Unused Marples Wadge-Arm Plow Plane
$65
New Item This Week
This plane has no evidence of use. It's a later Marples machine-made plane. It's unusual in that it's bare beech, never oiled. The original decal is bold and bright. It's probably more of a collector's item or display piece than a working plane, though you could do some final fitting to get it into working condition. $65
Small Compassed Smooth Plane
$28
New Item This Week
A.B. Salmen Small Compassed Smooth Plane
$28
New Item This Week
This plane was made for the London hardware dealer A.B. Salmen. It appears to be completely unused. It has the original decal on the toe. It's marked "Foreign" on the toe so it's probably European in origin. It's 6in long with a 1 5/8in wide single iron and a gentle curve to the sole $28
Lion Mitre Trimmer
$175
New Item This Week
This is a "vintage" example, still made in the US. The blades are extremely sharp. The bevels are in great shape. It's ready to use. It will be disassembled to make shipping safe and economical. It's an outstanding way to cut mitres, especially if you are working in a finished area of a home. There's no need to go back and forth to a mitre saw outside- just cut it close with a backsaw and finish with the mitre trimmer. $175

Excellent 5/8in Square Ovolo Molding Plane
$35
New Item This Week
This is a top-quality molding plane made by William Kaye in Nottingham in the mid-19th century. It has barely any wear and a superb level of fit and finish. The York pitch blade is perfect. It looks earlier than it is with the brad chamfers and deep cove along the step. An excellent worker in a desirable size. $35
Outstanding 5/8in Tongue and Groove Molding Plane
$45
New Item This Week
This is a high quality American plane made by W.H. Pond in New Haven, CT. It's in excellent condition with barely any wear. The blades are perfect. It's about as nice as they come. It cuts a T&G joint centered on 5/8in stock but will work for 1/2in as well if you are careful. An outstanding working example. $45
Early and Exceptional I.COX 1in Reverse Ogee Molding Plane
$45
New Item This Week
This is a gorgeous plane in perfect working condition. It was made by one of the John Cox, Birmingham, England planemakers who worked from 1770-1830. The plane has broad, flat chamfers, a deep cove at the step, and deep gouge cuts at the transitions, all characteristics of an 18th century plane. It's in excellent condition, barely used. It cuts a 1in wide by 1 1/4in deep reverse ogee, a very unusual profile. It has an extension added to the non-escapement side to act as a fence which is a big help. It's attached cleanly with screws if you prefer to remove it. It's a great example of 18th-century planemaking, and still usable today. $45
Early T. Tileston Thumbnail Molding Plane
$30
New Item This Week
This plane was made by Tileston in Boston in the early 19th century. It has the "Tileston" mark, not "Tilefston" as some have. It's a high quality plane with double boxing on the high wear areas. It cuts a 1in wide by 1/2in deep thumbnail (for lack of a better term) profile. It has light wear from use and remains in excellent working condition. $30
Excellent 7/8in Square Ovolo Molding Plane
$35
New Item This Week
This is a top-quality molding plane made by William Kaye in Nottingham in the mid-19th century. It has barely any wear and a superb level of fit and finish. The York pitch blade is perfect.

Ward and Payne 1/2in Mortise Chisel
$35
New Item This Week
Stout 3/16in Socket Mortise Chisel
$35
New Item This Week
This is a heavy-duty 3/16in mortise chisel in excellent condition. It has a clean blade and a simple, but excellent handle. It has a faint maker's mark I can't read. It came with a unch of English edge tools so I have no doubt it's a Sheffield made tool. It's an excellent working example in a desirable size $35
W. Butcher no. 8 Sweep 1/2in Gouge
$26
New Item This Week
North Brothers no. 1555 Breast Drill
$75
New Item This Week
The 555 is an engineering marvel. It has a selector that allows the user to choose from one of five modes. Plain allows it to work like a normal drill. Locks the spindle and makes it easier to change bits. Left- and right-hand ratchets are self-explanatory. Double is the coolest- it turns the chuck clockwise no matter which way the handle is moved. This example works well in all modes. It also has a speed sector lever on the gear that provides a low and high speed option. The 1555 is equipped with a three-jaw chuck for use with round-shank bits. It's in excellent working condition, free of damage, and with only minor wear. $75
Stanley no. 53 Adjustable Spokeshave
$36
New Item This Week
This Stanley 53 features an adjustable mouthpiece that allows the user to alter the depth of cut while in use. The thumbscrew changes the angle of the mouth piece which changes the depth of cut. It's easy to use and quite effective, making it my favorite metallic shave to use.This one has light wear and good strong springs. The blade is long and clean. It dates to the "type 11" 1910-1918 era. $36
Stanley no. 53 Adjustable Spokeshave
$35
New Item This Week
This Stanley 53 features an adjustable mouthpiece that allows the user to alter the depth of cut while in use. The thumbscrew changes the angle of the mouth piece which changes the depth of cut. It's easy to use and quite effective, making it my favorite metallic shave to use.This one has light wear and good strong springs. The blade is long and clean. This example likely dates to ca. 1900 based on the blade logo an early-style brass thumbscrew. $35

Beautiful Moseley Sash Fillister
$95
New Item This Week
This is a classic English sash fillister with all of the features and decoration you'd expect from a top-quality plane. It was made by Moseley in London between 1860-1882. It has a fully boxed sole and double-dovetail joints. The brass arm caps are secured with crossed boxwood wedges. The nicker blade is held with a boxwood wedge. The wide depth stop is steel-clad. The blade is perfect. It's a gorgeous plane in excellent condition $95
1/2in Fluting Plane
$15
New Item This Week
Early, Interesting Molding Plane
$20
New Item This Week
This plane has 19th century characteristics but no definite maker's mark. It has a bold "D.L" incuse mark on the toe I can't find in AWP-IV. It's an unusual profile that looks like a miniature coping plane in profile, but that's unlikely the case. It could be a sill drip edge plane. I'm stumped on this one. It's in excellent condition. $20
Early and Unusual English Sash Fillister
$50
New Item This Week
This plane was made by Heilds in Nottingham. It's a typical English style fillister with a high level of fit and finish. It's quite unusual though. There is a brass piece screwed to the right side of the depth stop that I'm at a loss to explain. The more unusual feature is the nicker- There's a mortise and boxwood wedge to hold the nicker blade, which is normal. What's weird is that the mortise doesn't extend down into the sole so it's useless. It's not repaired or modified. I'm at a loss. It's still quite pretty, and useful as a rabbet plane. $50
Exceptional 14in Sheffield Backsaw
$85
New Item This Week
This is a gorgeous saw made by Onion & Co. in Sheffield. It has an especially clean plate 14in long and 3 1/4in deep under the brass back. It's 12ppi. The teeth are in great shape and just need a light filing, no major work required. The handle is the best part- it's near perfect with heavily carved, thin horns that have somehow escaped damage. You can tell the split screws have been retighted at some point, but the handle is still tight to the blade. It's a gorgeous saw that will make an exceptional worker. $85
Disston 12in Backsaw
$45
New Item This Week
This is a 1896-1917 example based on the medallion. There's a large etch on the plate that I can't read, but based on others I've seen, I think it's Hammacher Schlemmer. The plate is discolored but has minimal pitting. It's 2 1/2in deep under the plate. The apple handle is excellent. The blade is sharpened with an aggressive 10point rip profile. The teeth aren't perfect, but they are surprisingly sharp and the saw cuts well. Not pretty, but usable. $45
Excellent Bensen and Crannell Screw-Arm Plow Plane
$185
New Item This Week
This is an absolutely top quality American plane. It was made in Albany, NY in the mid-late 19th century. It's in excellent condition, beautifully made, and in perfect working condition The threads are in great shape with minimal wear. The fence is tight and square. It comes with seven blades, mostly Sandusky, all of which fit this specific plane perfectly. An ideal plow to put to use. Don't want the blades? Subtract $70 from the price. $185

$25
Exceptional H. Chapin 3/16in Center Bead Molding Plane
$45
This plane is unused and about as nice as they come. I'd call it near-mint but there is a minuscule brusie to the boxing in back of the mouth. It's barely worth noting but it's the only flaw. It's still dead straight which is a rarity. It's an exceptional example to use, and a very desirable size. $45
Highly Unusual 1/8in Side Bead w/ Nicker
$45
This plane was made by TJ McMaster in Auburn. It looks like a standard 1/8in side bead except that it has an angled nicker blade that aligns with the quirk of the bead. This would allow it to cut beads cross-grain. I've never seen one like it. It's in excellent condition with minimal wear. $45
Massive Sargent no. 3428 Jointer Plane
$80
This is the largest bench plane Sargent made. It's 28in long with a 2 5/8in wide blade. This is an earlier example with the horseshoe lateral, made in the first decade of the 20th century. The plane is in excellent condition, barely used, and with an original length, perfectly clean blade. There is one small flaw- a chip on the sole right at the toe. I've seen a lot of wooden planes with nearly identical chips. I presume it was caused by running the plane into a planing stop. A great plane to put to use if you have extra-long boards to joint. $80
Stanley no.132 Jointer Plane
$65
This is an excellent example, perfectly usable. It's 26in long with a 2 5/8in wide blade. It's all correct and original, including the cap iron which is unique to this plane. It has minimal wear, the worst of which are some light scratches on the sole. The blade is long and clean. This is a "Liberty Bell" plane, which was offered as a less expensive alternative to Bailey pattern planes. The adjuster is very coarse and offers no lateral adjustment. My recommendation is to get the blade close then adjust it with a hammer just like a traditional wooden plane. If you forgo the adjuster, you'll have an excellent working plane well suited to jointing the longest boards. $65

Big Ogee Molding Plane
$20
This plane cuts a 1 3/4in wide by 1in deep ogee. It was made by H.L. Naramore in Cummingotn, MA between 1865-1872. It's a good-looking plane with a decent blade but the mouth is opened up, presumably intentionally. It's not ideal, for sure, but it could still be usable, and it's a nicer larger profile. $20
Starret no. 130 Bench Level
$20
Massive, Early American 5/8in Socket Mortise Chisel
$30
This chisel was made by J.H. Allen, an edge tool maker listed in the EAIA DAT as working ca. 1850 in Troy, NY. The blade is massive, nearly 7/8in thick where it meets the socket. The back is clean and has no pitting. The handle is usable. It looks pretty bad but it definitely won't come off, and somehow it's incredibly stable. That iron hoop is doing a lot of work keeping it together. You can definitely use it as-is. It's not perfect, just a good worker in an unusually large size $30

Greenslade Flat Ovolo Molding Plane
$24
This is a high quality plane made by Greenslade. It cuts a 1/2in wide by 1/4in deep flat ovolo. The plane has light wear. the blade is decent- the back is clean but it needs the usual tuning to get it into working condition. It's a decent, usable plane that cuts a very useful profile $24
Interesting Fulton Patent Hinge Gauge
$28
This gauge is based on Horace Fulton's July 17, 1888 patent. It's clearly stamped with the patent date and name. This is a butt and hinge mortise gauge made of wood with three internal cutters. Interestingly, this basic design is essentially the same as that used in the Stanley 94 nd 95 gauges. It's a very good example with light wear. Unusual and quite scarce. $28
Stout 1/2in Socket Mortise Chisel
$35
This chisel was made for the Bellknap Hardware Co. of Louisville, KY and sold under the "Bluegrass" brand name. I don't know who made it- if I had to guess, I'd say Greenlee. It's 15.5in long overall. The back is especially clean and has no pitting. The handle is excellent. It has a thick blade with a stout socket.It's a nice example that will make a fine worker $35
Moulson Bros. 5/8in Sash Mortise Chisel
$35
This is a top-quality Sheffield edge tool made by Moulson Bros. It has a thick blade and a hooped handle for use with a mallet. It's not as stout as a pigsticker or socket mortise chisel, but it can definitely withstand some abuse. The blade is clean and has no pitting on the back. The handle is excellent. $35
Extra-Long Union 1/2in Socket Chisel
$35
Thos. Appleton 1/4in Side Bead Molding Plane
$30
This plane was made in the mid-late 19th century by Thomas Appleton, who worked in and around Boston. It's clean and sound with no damage and minimal wear. The blade is long and clean. The boxing is excellent- it has little wear and is still dead straight. It's a fine worker in a very desirable small size $30
Rare Chapin-Stephens no. 300 Rosewood Level
$85
This was, by far, the most expensive level C-S made at their Pine Meadow factory outside of Hartford, CT. It's made of dense rosewood. Despite being only 26in long, it weighs 4.5lbs. The wood is in amazing condition, with barely any dings. The problem is that the original lacquer or varnish has yellowed over time and become cloudy. You might consider stripping and polishing it, but it's a rare tool so I'll leave the choice up to you. The brass is nicely patinated and uncleaned. Both vials are intact. It's clearly stamped with the model no. on one end. It's the first example I've seen, and it's a good one. $85

Early Starrett 8in Inside Transfer Caliper

J. Denison 1/4in Side Bead Molding Plane
$28
This is a good, usable plane. It was made by Denison in Saybrook, CT. It has light wear to the boxing at the front from use. Otherwise, it's clean and perfectly usable. The blade is long and clean, free of pitting. It needs the usual tuning to get it sharp, but nothing unexpected. A good solid worker in a very desirable size. $28
Excellent Ward 7/16in Pigsticker Mortise Chisel
$45
5/16in Pigsticker Mortise Chisel
$45
This is a classic, top-quality British mortise chisel. It's marked WG with a grown which I'm pretty sure is William Greaves. It's 11.5 in long overall. The blade is excellent. The handle has some wear at the end but no cracks. The bevel just needs a quick grind and hone.It's an excellent working example. $45
Ohio Tool 1in Corner Chisel
$28
W. Butcher 3/8in Paring Gouge
$26
Buck 1/2in Paring Gouge
$26
This is a top-quality American edge tool made by Buck in Millbury, MA. It's 13in long with a long, thin blade. It has an inside bevel for paring work. The back is discolored, but has no pitting. The handle is excellent. A nice working example of a sort you can't find made today by any maker. $26
Extra-Long W Butcher 1in Paring Gouge
$35
W. Butcher 3/4in Paring Gouge
$26
This is a top-quality Butcher edge tool made in Sheffield. It's 13+in long with a long, thin blade. It has an inside bevel for paring work. The back is discolored, but has no pitting. The bevel needs to be ground and honed, and you'll have a fine worker. The handle is excellent. A nice working example of a sort you can't find made today by any maker. $26
Excellent Surface Gauge
$35
This is an excellent example that still works flawlessly. Believe it or not- It was made for Craftsman. It's either Starrett or a Starrett clone. It's identical to the other 257s I have. It has an 8in spindle with a marking blade on one end. A good, usable example of the best vintage quality. $35

The blade is clean, sharp, and free of pitting.It's a high-quality, completely usable plane with a beautiful profile. $45

Scarce Mathieson Double-Iron Quirk-Ogee-Bevel Molding Plane
$65
This plane cuts a 1in wide by 5/8in deep quirk ogee and bevel, a useful, general-purpose profile. This plane, made by Mathieson in Glasgow, is different in that it uses two blades to cut the profile- one to cut the bevel, the other the ogee. Why two blades? It makes the plane much easier to maintain. When the plane is used, the bevel blade does most of the work since it's removing the most stock. The entire profile must be ground with a single-blade plane when the bevel portion wears down. Two blades require much less grinding and honing to keep the blades projecting evenly across the mouth of the plane. This example has light to moderate wear and is still completely usable. Both blades are clean and have plenty of life left. $65

Unusual P.A. Gladwin 3/4in Square Reverse Ogee Molding Plane
$35
Gladwin is a well-documented planemaker and inventor working in both CT and the Boston area throughout the 19th century. This is a well-made plane with an odd profile. It cuts a 3/4in tall by 3/4in wide reverse ogee. It has no fence, which is both a plus and minus. A fence could easily be attached to allow it to run along the edge of a board. It has one small check at the heel right at the step. Otherwise, it's in excellent condition. The blade is original length and clean. The mouth is perfectly tight. A solid working example in an unusual configuration $35
Exceptional Steep Quirk Ovolo Molding Plane
$45
This plane was made between 1829-1849 in Sheffield by Charles Heathcott. It's a top-quality plane in amazing condition. The plane is clean and crisp with no damage and minimal wear. The only flaw is a scuff mark on the bottom of the fence- it's minor but otherwise the plane is perfect. It cuts a quirk ovolo 1in wide by 3/4in deep. It's beautifully made, and about as nice as they come. It's absolutely usable and quite an interesting profile $45

Very Unusual Groves Handsaw
$70
This is a top-quality Sheffield saw made by Groves. It's an earlier example with a die-stamped plate, rounded nose, nib, and one crown stamp. The handle is very unusual. It has brass star decorations let into the handle. There are also circular insets on the top and bottom horns. I presume these conceal some sort of reinforcing bolt (similar to what S&J used) though they could be purely decorative. The insets shimmer like mother of pearl or some sort of iridescent stone or shell. I've never seen anything like it. The plate is decently clean and straight enough to use, but not perfect. The handle has a truncated top horn and some chipping on the bottom horn. It's a unique saw that I believe is something special. $70
Unique Emanuel Andrews Patent Meat/Metal Saw
$45
This saw design was patented April 7, 1885. As far as I know, this is the only known example. I'll add the reference in DATAMP.

Andrews made saws in Williamsport PA and later worked with Harvey Peace or sold his patents to Peace. $45
