Paraphrasing Oprah...

DITTO!

I found a Western 648B a few weeks back for next to nothing and flipped it for a tidy sum. It had a lot more pitting than yours but cleaned up nicely.
I was going to ask a Q but... See below!

@BD55 ***** for that great cabinet! I'd be sorely temped to sand and refinish the top--but leave the well earned holes and gouges!
Agreed,

What did you use to clean that knife up?

Evaporust on the blade. Simple Green and a nylon bristle brush on the scales followed by mineral oil. The mineral oil soaked right in and left the scales in their original condition.
The scales restoration was what I was going to ask - good to know! (I saw a knife in that condition not long ago on Eprey, I was not sure if it could be resurrected)

Hard to tell from the pics, but was the blade pitted? If so, what (if anything) did you do to fix that?

Thanks! Reason I ask is I have acquired this rather old looking Robert Klaas pocketknife that is in kinda rough shape, want to clean it up a bit. Can’t find much info on these, haven’t actually been able to find another one quite like it on google.

This is my take from this mornings sale, all was had for $100 . I did not see any Baby Wiltons that would have gone with the
power arms. Some are missing parts and I am not sure if parts are available.

That was a risk/leap well worth taking, I think. Whether you can use everything to put one or two good ones together or just part it out, you already know people go nuts for them.

Considering you can't buy a single new SO socket for $18 or less, and can't replace that driver for less, YOU ****.
And… they were all metric… which have been harder to find, at least for me.

And… thank you.

Based on the pictures, I was going to start in the garage… but then I saw the box with the sockets in it, in the basement…and I still got the screwdriver.

The screwdriver is just starting to get a little chalky.

I got an Ariens 8524 snowblower (or "snowthrowa" as they say around these parts) for free today, 2.2 miles from my house. Found it on my town's "Buy Nothing" Facebook group. If you're not familiar with the Buy Nothing Project, you can read about it here: http://buynothingproject.org/ Everything listed in these groups is free. If you live in a decent sized population area, there's probably one for your town.

"Came with house, ran, but doesn't anymore." I was one of three that responded within an hour of posting, but I was the only one who said "I have a truck and can come get it tomorrow." Young guy I picked it up from said he forgot exactly how it quit working, but that it was beyond his capabilities to fix. Even helped me load it into my truck

Picked it up at 10:30am today. Gas tank was bone dry, oil level was good. Fueled it up and plugged in the electric start. No workie with the electric start, but the engine fired on the first pull of the rope and settled into a nice idle.

Snow blower whirler worked fine, but the machine wouldn't move under its own power. Took some covers off, cleaned a mouse nest out of the drive box, and found a broken drive belt idler pulley spring. After a side trip to the local hardware store, a $3.40 replacement spring had it running around my driveway by a little after 1pm.

Still need to troubleshoot the electric starter, but I now have a working snowblower for less than a Lincoln and a few hours of my time. The guy joked about watching for it to pop up on a resale site and buying it back from me. If he does respond when I list it this winter, I'll probably give him a price break--we're practically neighbors, after all.

Simple Green will probably cut the crud on the scales and Evaporust will certainly help the blades. You might want to use a razor blade to gently remove the loose rust first. Also, either here or on @gpw_42's Vintage Knife Thread there was a discussion about the hazards of "displaying" blades that share a single spring down the back spine. Vintage springs are apparently susecptable to breaking if both blades are positioned halfway out due to the doubling of design stress.

Ecstatic with my flea haul (2023_18) from this morning.

2023_18.jpg

Not sure about the vintage of the military tie-down straps, but they will be a 'collectible use' on my B.S.A. or elsewhere.

I'm always on the lookout for useable belt-loop sheaths.

The extension is a cad-plated wartime Plomb WF-36.

The scissors are vintage WISS, but I had them assigned to use as soon as I squeezed the handles. That volute spring creates tight, intensely forceful action on the short blades.

Saving the second best for last..., the Boos twist-the-handle adjustable wrench is a loooong time 'Bucket List'er and the liquidator sold it on the $1 table.

The best thing in the haul, maybe all year so far, and maybe recent memory, is the ball pein. I recognized it as Vlchek from afar. The pronounced oval shape is very unique. I have all kinds of Vlchek hammers, but none with their oldest logo on the cheek. In fact, the only instances of this logo I have seen on any tool is the simplified version that appears in very tiny, raised or forged-in form as a forge mark on the shanks of wrenches and the handles of pliers. This is quite large and stamped.

Oooh good to know thanks!! I guess I won’t be doing that again lol.

Edit: Do I want to try to keep the evaporust away from the scales or will it be fine?

This weekend garage sales were promoted as "community wide annual sales" so I went to a bunch of them yesterday and today as I had time. Nothing advertised sounded very appealing, so I just stopped at as many I could manage. I passed up a nice Fleetwind Springtop sled, with an interesting spring suspension between the top of the sled and the runner assembly. I'm in no shape to go sledding and the boys have an abundance of other kinds of sleds, and I'm trying to avoid buying things just because they are neat or different.
But I did find a denim roll of Wright wrenches, with the 3/4 replaced by an SK wrench. $3 for the set and another 50 cents for the Bernard pliers at another sale along with a 25 cent screwdriver. Most of the other tools that I saw at other sales were cheap junk or broken or priced like new. Wright wrenches.jpg

The brace bit bag(!) and CS Osborn tack puller came home with me from that sale, while the Vaco metric nut drivers (an almost complete set, only missing the 9mm) was from the fourth sale that day. The stuff in the lower right corner came from a sale last week, but were left in my truck by accident: Klein 3in1 tap, phase indicator, and CS Osborn leather punches.


(To be continued!)

Ok this pushed me over the edge. I've been sitting on a partial set of these. I even drew out a wooden rack in CAD to house them ,allowing for the handle spacing,etc. A guy who sells a ton of tools locally has a partial set ,that would include your 9mm, 3 of the other 4 in the listing fill voids in my set . I've sent him a message and I will tuck the 9mm away (with the Armstrong line wrenches) to send at some point.

EDIT: After a bit of digging I'll have to modify my layout as the 12mm and 13mm don't exist. I can probably stop looking for them now.
So the local tool guy(loser) on FBM decided to not respond to my inquiries and the ad is now listed as "Item Not Available" so Beemer you and I are back to square one on fill-ins.
Now onto sales : went to 2 sales yesterday that had a bit of potential. The 1st sale HAD a wooden machinist chest and a Craftsman wall cabinet ,but both were gone well before I got there. The basement workshop was immaculate and organized(the guy was a watchmaker) and the estate sale company had the workbench taped off,selling the bench and contents for $425 but you couldn't open and inspect??? I ended up with the nutdrivers that look brand new(missing the yellow one) ,The C'man professional ratcheting driver,the handi-cut blades and the 2-3 jaw puller NIB. 2nd sale was directly across the Facebook buy earlier this week I still haven't inventoried,but the tools have the same owner marks/name/engraving so either the neighbor bought it from the family or the P.O. prior to the estate sale, and flipped to me, but in the tools available at the sale I bought the Craftsman long C 1/4" sockets ,a Craftsman DBE& Bonney DBE . Today when I arrived home from work a trade package from Raineman was on the table .Herbrand wrenches ,ratchet ,sockets and two EMPTY boxes..not sure if this is a "fair" trade or if Raineman just wants to sit back and watch a guy with OCD fill plastic trays .LOL

It will loosen and eventually strip ANYTHING with an oxide in it. That includes some paints and stains. I generally keep all wooden and leather handles out of the solution. I don't recall your knife.

I would go with Lugz's advice. I know with a folding knife the interior is most likely just as rusty as the blades so it will be tough, but I don't know what would happen with your handle that looks like plastic.

Yeah, it’s some sort of plastic type stuff, not bone, leather, or wood that’s for sure. I’ll do some more reading about cleaning up a folder like that one before I tackle it I think. She’s pretty crusty all around. 😬

There were a lot of sales around here today. I only went to a few, and they had some interesting stuff. I didn't get all the stuff photographed from the first estate sale, so I'll post it later. I did find this cast machine base with an imported grinder attached at that sale. It is 30-3/4" tall, and the mounting surface is about 10-1/2" x 12".
Stand 2.jpg
Stand 3.jpg
Stand 4.jpg
I had to clean the contacts in the switch to get the grinder working. I'll sell it cheap to get rid of it. The stand is interesting. It apparently used a foot pedal to operate whatever was mounted on the top. I think that notch is where the linkage went, and the operator would have been standing on the opposite side, in front of the large oval cutout in the column. I think it will make a nice stand for a couple of small grinders, or one big one.

The second stop was another estate sale. I found things scattered all over, so it was somewhat of a scavenger hunt. One of the family told me that the Plomb all came from his father, who had been a helicopter pilot and mechanic. He said this was only a small part of the tools, and I gave him my contact information.

The green stand looks likely to be from a brake shoe riveter, some had a vertical grinder to radius the finished lining.

Red letter day for Prov! Suckage, but especially for that stand! Is it heavy enough for a vise stand? Or it might be a good stand for a reloading press setup.

I slipped out yesterday for an Estate sale and found these: The mini lapdesk is solid oak and made in Mexico. nice workmanship! It had a blue tag with no price and I asked, and the "room keeper" went and asked the boss, and it came back at $4! I don't know what I'll do with it yet, but I like it!

The Pyrex Flameware skillet caught my eye and its a good price so i snagged it. I've been watching for Blue Flameware for a while. My first piece. I can't wait to try it out, and it may go into my camp gear. The removable handle should make it easier to pack.

Beemer we are back to good on your 9mm Vaco. Went hunting on Ebay after the other lead fizzled out and hit paydirt. Now I am down to 6mm and 8mm needed for fills.

MrsLS & I stopped at several neighborhood garage sales today, but few promised, and none delivered, tools. The Weil Antique Ctr parking lot flea had little of great interest today, but I did hand over $5 for a commemorative 1975-1985 10-year anniversary National Wild Turkey Federation PA Chapter lockback knife, a little cruddy but not much used. Made in USA by Queen Cutlery, presumably in Titusville PA, the birthplace of the petroleum industry.

I hit an estate sale that advertised a lot of tools. Turns out the man who passed away was a wood worker and had a shed set up as a work shop. I'm not a wood worker but he had a nice set up with all Craftsman crown top tools-jig saws, routers, lathes, drill press etc. I found some Stanley USA router bits to go along with a router I already have, some NOS Delco spark plugs, Motorcraft parts and an Ideal turn signal flasher. Also KD Tools snap ring pliers set, Vise grips (one has a home made hook attached), Craftsman 3/8" -V- ratcher with thumbwheel, Armstrong puller, NOS Xacto blades, and a Simmonds Saw and Steel pattern file set all for $10....EXCEPT I was so shocked at the price that I gave the guy a $20 and he then asked if I needed a box. I got distracted and never got my change HAHA. Oh well. Still a steal at $20.PXL_20230610_150623043.jpg

Just picked this up for $2 at a yard sale strictly to resell. I can't believe people spend decent money on this ****.

Not heavy enough without bolting it down. I may put a couple of bench grinders on it, or it may have multiple 1x42 belt sanders mounted so I'll have options of various grit belts.

Filling the base with cement is another option.

This year has been slow for me. Between fighting to adopt the two babies we have been fostering to building a new house on the farm I bought when my grandparents passed, yardsales have been 3rd on my list of things to do. Today I stopped at a few and only bought stuff at the first one.

20230610_170544.jpg
The guy had a few random boxes of ammo and I mentioned I had been looking for 16 gauge shells for the Wingmaster I restored, and he said, hold on......then came out with 8 boxes. He said he wanted $8 a box. Then he dropped his price to $5 a box, so I bought all he had and several more he still had tucked away (14 full boxes total), and then a variety of 12 gauge shells, 2 3/4", 3", and 3 1/2". Some is steel shot, some slugs, and lots of 00 Buck. I also picked up a NOS Utica torque driver.

All in I paid $110.

Not quite a steal, but much cheaper than I could buy it at the store for.

Wrenches

Our first Tahoe sale of the year was rather sad. There were plenty of tools to go through but almost all of them were imported and I don’t mean that in a good way. I found a couple of Snap-on short metric combos mixed in with the discardable wrenches and when I went to check out the seller snatched them back up as if I was trying to steal them. At least my copilot found some things for the granddaughter at some other tool free sales.

OK, another WHATS IT WORTH post... no, not money value!

Picked these up. Type 11 (I think) Stanley Bailey No. 6 Corrugated bottom Wood Plane. Yankee 1530A ratcheting Egg Beater Drill. Two Pipe wrenches, Fleet and Worth.

The What's it Worth to me is the WORTH Pipe Wrench. The 'What' I want to know is the logo age.
I have seen very few WORTH tools. The few I have seen had a Star or Asterisk shaped emblem next to the WORTH stamped on the tool. Was that done on early or late tools? How long were Worth tools made?
I seem to recall these were made by Peck Stow and Wilcox. is that correct? I cannot find much about Worth Tools on the internet.
Any info would be appreciated.

Then he dropped his price to $5 a box,

Not quite a steal, but much cheaper than I could buy it at the store for.

F Floyd gets a **** for the shotgun shells.

Big time! that IS a steal! hard to even find Ammo adn when you do its Stupid $$. .22s are probably the worst...


when I went to check out the seller snatched them back up as if I was trying to steal them.

I hate it when that happens, gt your $4!& together. I get it at a Family estate where they are still sorting out, or if they tell you entering a garage "not everything is for sale", but make an effort when it lands on a table or in the yard... Especially stupid when it lands at a FM...

There is a small worth thread here. You could post your new wrench on it.

We traveled to a small community sale in Nevada just past Stateline. No tools to be seen but we grabbed a couple of free Heavenly mugs and a model canoe that I liked. Should be good cabin art.
