i bought this collection of “wood working tools” from an advert in the free news paper ,well for £10 what did i expect if nothing else i will have some tools to practise cleaners on and i’ll get some practise on sharpening techniques without the fear of loosing my best chisels/saws or axe’
Chisels look like footprints not to shabby.
You be surprised how well saws will work.
Have fun
Nice find, you have some very useful tools there. I have used Vinegar and Citrus Acid after scrapping as much rust off with a razor blade first. After dunking in whatever you use wipe down with oily rag and I put paste wax on all my tools. Living in Florida I have not had any rust issues.

I can spot 9 salvageable items in the lot, so not bad for the price!
