So I came across Charlie's 2nd Hand Tools in downtown Denver CO! This place is great, real tools, awesome owners, and good prices. Been in business since 1946!!

They buy new and used tools, I would say its about 60% old/ 40% new. The prices are somewhere between new and garage sale or maybe close to Ebay?

But you can find the good stuff here, old Klein screwdrivers, USA Vice-grips, Vaughn hammers, Wiss scissors, tons of sockets, drill bits, etc.... Assorted tap/die's, files, plumbing, tool boxes, lawn&garden, everything really.

Ron, one of the guys I met was genuine and very knowledgeable. So do yourself a favor and check the place out.

I will check it out next time I'm down there. Reminds me of the old hardwood floors in hardware stores when I was a kid.

Steve and Ron are good guys to do business with. There is an amazing amount of tools in that little store. I've found some very cool tools there.

My daughter lives a block from Charlie's. I can see the back of the store from her balcony. I try to stop in at Charlie's every time that I visit my daughter.

Charlies is an awesome store. Been going there for years. I recently bought a Proto box from them. Ron and Steve are very decent people.
If you do stop in check out the Wilton vise they have at the back of the store. The thing is HUGH.

Strange name for a vise, I prefer WINTHORPE myself.

Cool store, I wish we had something like that around where I live.
