old joinery tools

[openspaceman]

Does anyone here collect and use old tools, like hand saws and wooden planes?

 

A lady friend is downsizing and  some of her late husbands collection needs a new home. I have no real idea of the value but see the planes don't attract much on ebay.

 

Personally I gave up with these saws and the faff of setting and sharpening them more than 30 years ago when disposable induction hardened ones became available

What a shame they just don’t make tennon saws like that any more but they look a bit far gone .

The saws can be cleaned easily by soaking in Citric acid for a day or so.
