Vintage SK 1/2 Drive Set Value?

[briandrex]

Just curious to the street value of this set. I'm pretty sure I'm keeping it as I'm starting a vintage toolbox set up but it's always nice to know. I've researched this back to 1932 Sherman Klove and found it's rare for what it's worth. Rare doesn't mean money though...lol

I'm going to clean it up for now and go from there.

Looks almost complete. I had a similar set about a year ago that I purchased for resale. I sold it locally for $80 to a collector of vintage SK stuff. My set was in a little better shape but not much. Like you I tried researching it before I sold it but didnt find much about it. The gentlemen that purchased it seemed very happy with the price and didnt try to haggle with me at all, so maybe I let it go to cheap - I paid $25 for it at a flea market - and sold it for $80 so that was a pretty good profit. Best of luck with it.

Nice!

Thank you for the reply. It's always possible I turn into an SK collector from this....you just never know. I'm finding myself drawn to the old tools more and more as the new stuff just seems cheap many times.

Looks like a neat old set. I have to go wash my hands now, I'm trying desperately not to catch the bug that makes you collect vintage tools.

If you are thinking about it, it's probably already too late!

Too late for me. I already have the bug!
