Antique & Collectible
Woodworking Planes & Tools
 On this page you will
find a varied selection of antique woodworking planes & tools I
am selling. You will find early patented woodworking planes by makers such as Sargent, Millers Falls Tool Co, Winchester, Keen Kutter, Ohio
Tool, Union Tool, as well as examples by other more obscure makers. Stanley Planes will be found on the
Stanley Plane
& Tool Page.
Some of these companies produced quality lines of woodworking planes and tools competing
with Stanley in the marketplace. Famous names such as the
Simmons Hardware Co. of Saint Louis MO, whose tools were known as Keen
Kutter Brand, or Winchester of Gun making fame, were for the most
part merely distributors, rarely than actually producing their own
lines of tools. Simmons Hdwe. Co. AKA Keen Kutter did it well,
while the Winchester antique tool story was not as pretty.
There will be rare and desirable patented
woodworking planes from known and recognized makers including Leonard
Bailey as well as a good sampling of quality metal woodworking planes
created by various lesser known makers like Steers, Morris, Davis
Level & Tool
Co. Worrall, Phillips, Standard Rule, and others. These patented planes are from the era when people like Leonard
Bailey and other entrepreneurs and inventors with the spirit of Yankee ingenuity were producing
woodworking tools and patented planes for the American consumer, and created some wonderful
collectible planes for today's collectors.

Sargent began producing and marketing
woodworking planes in 1884 even though they had been in business for
many years prior to that
producing hardware, locks and other metal products. During their early years they produced a line of planes that rivaled Stanley in design, quality,
and popularity.
Millers falls came into the woodworking plane marketplace
late in the game, but due to their reputation
and experience producing other quality tools they had a
loyal following. Many of their planes are hard to differentiate
from their Stanley counterparts in look or quality.
Ohio Tool Co. was a major competitor of
Stanley and produced a
line of metal planes similar to Stanleys'. They also
produced wooden planes as well as a few unique and rare
design planes.
Union Tool co. also produced a line
of planes similar to Stanley's line before being
gobbled up by them. Stanley continued to sell this line of
planes and tools as a second line
for a number of years before dropping the name and line altogether.

Stanley
Rule and Level Co. was formed in the late 1850's and began their business
producing a line of folding rules and
general hardware in New Britain Conn.
Levels came next, and a few years later Stanley got into the woodworking plane business utilizing Leonard Baileys Patents and designs for metal bodied
bench planes and scrapers.
The Stanley Rule and Level Company spared
no expense
developing a market and filling the need of early
 craftspeople wanting top quality tools. Stanley Rule & Level Co.
and the tools they made had a great reputation back when. The
Stanley name imprinted on a tool was synonymous with quality and
high standards for close to 100 years and they dominated the market
with their line of fine woodworking planes and other carpentry
related tools.
 There is an incredible array of vintage and antique squares
and bevels and different forms of marking gauges that have
been patented and produced over the years. They were designed for use by many different tradesmen including woodworkers carpenters machinists and more. Many of
them have now become highly collectible while others are in
demand by users and trades people of today because of the
high quality, degree of usability and functionality they
provide, and the beauty these fine old collectible tools exhibit.
Some of the antique tools listed below are quite unusual and hard to find.
Suitable for use or inclusion in the vintage tool collection. Others will be a welcome addition to the workbench for the user / woodworker who
appreciates the quality in a fine vintage old tool made in the USA. From a time
when the USA use to actually produce things.

Antique & Vintage
edge tools, including carving tools, chisels,
gouges, carpenters slicks, vintage lathe tools and more will be found on this page.
These vintage and antique edge tools
 will be suitable for use in various woodworking hobbies and trades or inclusion in any antique
tool collection.
Antique woodworking edge tools from makers
such as Addis, D. R. Barton, James Swan, Herring, Henry Taylor, Buck Brothers, L.
& .I.. J. White, Wilkinson, Witherby, Maier, Marples, and others
will be found under the proper headings / links below. These famous edge tool maker names ring with nostalgia and
fond memories of the old days when quality was the
standard and American pride of manufacture carried over into the
things made here in the USA.
Vintage and antique tools are popular not only because
of the superior quality, but often times these antique edge tools can
be had in fine condition for a fraction of what is being charged for quality tools made today. There is no comparison in
relation to price vs. quality when speaking about the
garbage coming here from China sold in every retail
establishment, no matter the name
 you see on it. With a bit of knowledge and judicious shopping you can
outfit a toolbox or shop workbench with a array of quality antique &
vintage woodworking
tools at a reasonable price and get full value for your dollar.
Slicks are basically large chisels and
oftentimes large framing chisels are mis-identified as slicks. In
general they can range in width from 2" up 6" or so with those large
examples being very hard to find. Most are socket style, but there
are also tang slicks that can be found. Occasionally a gouge style slick turns up, and even less often crank neck ones appear. Names
like Wilkinson, Barton, L. I.& J. White, Witherby, James Swan and more come to
mind as the premier makers of the 19th century.

Braces and drills have evolved over time and each have many different styles and
 designs to choose from. There is a book on American Patented Braces
by Ron Pearson and finding some of the harder ones can be a challenge.
They make for a great display once one begins to appreciate the differences
and thought that went into the different designs. Others make for great
users.
I have seen a few collections of Beam boring machines and they can be very
impressive. It seems
there are a few common versions around
that were mass produced, and then a very few models that were
patented and made in very limited supply. Some with just a few
known. The Millers Falls model is the most popular with
today's timber framers and other users, although outfits like James Swan
and a few others made a nice usable product.
