Flea market Metal shear - identification?

[Jurjenz]

Hi guys!

I just bought a small metal shear on a flea market. Would be very nice to know what brand, model & year it is from. Any ideas?

Hard to tell from the picture but Beverly was/is possibly the dominant builder of that style hand shear.

Not a Beverly. Looks like a run of the mill small bench shear. There are probably a hundred different versions out there, all with the same basic build. A good, sharp blade on it and correctly tuned and it will be a nice addition to the bench.
