Found this little gem of a tool roll at the local pawn shop. Can't believe I've missed it the past few trips in there. A near full set of Williams BWM series Metric DBE's in a well used Estex tool roll. They appear to have never been used and the only flaw I see is the 1415 has some plating peeling off. One ebayer wants $171 for his new set, so someone thinks they're worth something. The bonus was the two Snap-On XB SAE DBE's that were also in the roll. These are headed for ebay if no one on the list wants them. This was just part one of the pawn shop sweep today.
Then there was this socket lying on the local thrift shop floor, a Snap On SF-120 which the SO collectors site says was from 1939-1946 and not only rare, but apparently used for installing door panels and running boards. Also snagged a Clark and Co. hacksaw(not pictured). It's wood handle is loose and the saw is in rough shape, but I didn't have one, so I grabbed it. The Wards Lakeside hand saw is in pretty good condition too. I spent like $5 there for those items and the Whitaker triple diamond logo/Chicago stamped wrench and the Upland Forge. The UF is a 5/8"x3/4" and the Whitaker is an 11/16"x7/8".

I would be interested in the 2 Snap on DBE wrenches if you still have them.
-
They brought like @0 bucks on ebay, with the auction closing Friday IIRC. Apologies from this end....

Are you saying they sold for next to nothing on Ebay?
-
My bad, sahouldda said 20 bucks, which is about par for the course, I guess. That old snap-on SF-120 socket brought $7 and the snappy collectors site said they are fairly rare.

Yeah, not sure that Blackhawk tool is made in US It doesn't say one way or the other, and it looks a lot like a GearWrench.
