A couple months ago I went to an estate sale and purchased a couple pieces.
I exchanged phone numbers with the folks doing the sale because they said they
had a PODS to go through which they thought had tools in it.
Have been trying to cut down on the rust hunting as I have a number of acquisitions
which haven't quite found their way to completion as far clean up and / or repair.
Thursday AM my cell rings and they say the sale is on again.
Can find no makers mark on either of the small vises.
Believe the froe to be home smithy or blacksmith forged,
it has been rehandled recently relative to the forging.
Mallet is sound.
The saw has slight bow to the plate length wise, etch faint but combined with the medallion:
The Simonds Saw Manufacturing Co.
20" length of saw plate with a 11 stamped on the heel
First of the two ones very faint and no matter how I hold a rule against
the teeth I am not coming up with 11
Total for the 5 pieces $10
