The blame is on Coleman...when they bought the rights to GAZ, they stopped importing them into the States so they would not compete with themselves.

Hi Sparky415

Love the draw knife, I've got to stop selling and start buying. By the way you worried the bloke next to me. He did ask why he needed to be worried.

The big one is made by Elora (German) not sure about the smaller one  :think:



The Elora has been used as a hammer so much it won’t close all the way  ::)



Take it to pieces, Grind all the burrs, file and smooth the mating faces  ;)

Ooh and I picked these up yesterday from a very nice Man in a London cigar shop (cost a small donation to charity)
Don’t know where I’m going to put them or what to put in them yet  :shrug:

Nice haul!

Glad to see you pick up an axe handle.  All those lonely axe heads with no handles... Ain't right.  :D

Any name on the wrench?  Speedgrip made a similar adjustable.

I don’t often see a good handle and the price wasn’t too bad (they do have them for sale around here but they are around £16plus new)
I can’t see anything on the wrench yet, need to clean it up a bit
And the axe head is 4lbs  :D


Ooh and bottom right is a 1/4socket driver made by Craftsman, don’t see too many Craftsman tools around here  :tu:

The older Craftsman quality is better.  Now it is just average.

Here's an adjustable wrench I got a while back . This is after soaking in cola for 24 hours and rubbing with a scotch pad.


The cool thing is it was made in my state in northern Minnesota up in the heart of the iron range. It looks like it is a pretty early one pre WW2.

Diamond Calk Horseshoe Co. Duluth, MN.

Steve the Diamond Calk wrenches were made before 1958. In 58 or maybe late 57 the name changed to Diamond Tool. It appears to have a reinforced hanging hole which would suggest a 1940 to 1958 manufactoring date. Great find.    :tu:     :)
