We specialize in sales of antique and vintage tools from all trades including carpenters, masons, wheelwrights, blacksmiths, machinists, and more. Makers like James Swan, Irwin, Millers Falls, Greenlee, Stanley and more.

Specialize in Vintage Tools

We specialize in refurbishing tools so they are ready to use when you purchase them. We also sell replacement handles and wooden knobs for some antique tools. Each piece is carefully inspected and described so you know exactly what you are buying.
