And to think,that kind of craftsmanship was meant to be,and was,used hard.Pics of these old tools take me back 40+ years,to a young boy looking over his grandfather's toolbox.

Those old Linesman's are glorious
Fan of the Leatherman mini-bit driver, dedicated slotted drivers, and the Victorinox backspring philips. But not combo blades.

Great pics man :tu: I really love old tools they tell so much just by looking at them :) Wonder how much more they could tell us if they could talk though :o I have mostly old bricklaying tools but I have a few carpentry tools as well and I love how well built they are :cheers: It's a shame at some of the cheap junk they sell as high quality now :( especially when compared to some of the older versions of the same thing :ahhh
Bricklayer by trade.  Country by the grace of God.
