Sharpening StoneCarborundum Sharpening Stone   This is a great piece of tool advertising by the best known name in sharpening stones.  It is in great cosmetic condition, but check out the stone itself.  I am not sure if it was made this way or if it got used by everybody in town as they waited to pay their bill at the counter.  Seems hard to imagine it would still be this nice is that was the case, but it has a couple of deep swoons in the stone I have never seen before.  Oh, by the way it has two different coarsenesses on the top on each end.  That is a bit different as well.  A neat piece.

antique saw tools10 Saw Makers Hammers    You can find saw makers hammers from time to time, and they are usually found one at a time and / or at tool shows or tool auctions. The collector got these as a set, and his tag mentions that he got 11 for one money at one location.  Well here are 9 from saw set that set of 11, and what looks to be another dog face he got elsewhere. In addition to the dog face versions, there are also straightening hammers, and the very interesting looking cross face hammers.  Be sure to look at all of the saw hammers It is a rare find to have them all together, and that saw hammer is the way I want to sell them.
