I was in a small hardware store a few days ago, and I saw several old Stanley wrenches and sockets.
The oldest one I saw was from 1983.

Unfortunately though, they were a bit pricey.
The 1 1/8" combination wrench was almost $20, I just didn't need it that badly.
I still thought it was pretty neat seeing them though.


So...
What "new old stock" tools have you found?

I have inherited dozens of things. I just got, found a Stanley mitre saw and stand that was my grandpa's. Recipet still in the box, dated 1977. I can't remember but I also have several other power tools and drill bits that still in the original packaging. All from my grandfathers.

does NOS Snap On from Ebay count?? :lol_hitti

in all seriousness though I saw a couple of the old style Made in Canada Mastercraft screwdrivers in the display cabinet at my local Canadian Tire. I have some like it and to my knowledge, they haven't been available since sometime in the 80's. I think they're made by Witt or Gray. I actually went back to buy them but someone already snagged them. damn tough screwdrivers!!

I have a NOS Snap-on 3/8dr Impact set from 1968. Came in a box marked 209PF which I assume is the part number for the set.

I also have a KR59A, and while used, I have the original Snap-on cardboard box it came in.

I have a local place kind of like Harry Epstein, they sell overstock stuff.
Pretty much no tools, just the accessories - tons of domestic made bits, blades, taps, dies, etc made by milwaukee, dewalt, irwin. All still in the new package but very dusty.

I found two sets of Husky sockets, flex and deep, on ebay. The flex was still in its cardboard sleeve. My local HWI had EASCO socket still for sale, some complete sets, and a decent selection of individual sockets.
