New toy day

[organic guy]

Thought I would start a thread to share what we've bought, new or second hand, business or pleasure.

Recent auction lot, I 'd be surprised if anyone can name them all but I'd love to know.

Yorky after cleaning, Leicestershire with a new handle.

That bottom LH corner one is most odd. Does it have a cutting edge even?

Second left at the bottom is an old fire axe isn’t it?

Mostly bill-hooks.

Not seen that catalogue page before, has one for both my local towns back at the farm. I'll have to keep buying auction lots!

Thats one I think I know a little about, not strictly a firemans axe but fire may be involved!

No cutting edge, appears to be a needle end

Google Lens says the bottom left is a thatcher's needle

Is it for pulling burning thatch off buildings or hay stacks? I have a vague memory of something like that.
