Vintage Buffalo #22 shear

[Josephs44]

I have an opening to buy a Buffalo No. 22 shear. I don't know much about it and can't find out much online. Does anyone know anything about them and what to look for? Here is the CL link (forum won't let me manage attachments on my phone). It's in the third and thirteenth pic.

Thanks

Nice ol brute no much to go wrong make sure there`s no play in the mechanism. Blades will have to be sharpened . May be hard to find replacements so make sure there`s plenty of meat left.
Do you really have a use for it? Id reckon $50 ish as a good starting point?

Got it for $50. It chews right through 1/4" stock.
