Woodward Patent Combination Tool - 1875
on: June 25, 2014, 07:54:21 PM
This one is listed on the 'bay for $300US.  There is an offer on it at this time (Bob ??? ??? ???)
The link below tells the story.  Usual disclaimers, don't know them, not recommending them.  Just thought it was an interesting pliery multitool.

I'm watching this one to see the final selling price.

Bob probably has half a dozen of these sitting around in boxes at his new house.  :D

I wish! (because if I did have a half dozen of them, I'd be selling 5 of them for $300 apiece!) :o :D


Seriously tho, I do just happen to have one, still with a bit of its original gold paint. According to a 1911 advertisement, it went by the name of Useful Tool No. 12, sold for the princely sum of 20 cents, and was "A mighty handy tool in your kitchen" :salute:








Despite a bit of searching, I've been unable to locate any trace of Useful Tools No. 1 thru 11 :think: :-\
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

Nice! :tu:

Maybe like Formulas 1-48, the first 11 weren't really useful.  :D

Maybe I should be searching for Not-As-Useful-As-We-Thought-It-Would-Be Tools No 1 thru 11? :think: :D
