That's a real nice, heavy hand sledge. That handle looks like someone hand carved it. Am I seeing things or is there a slight curve to that handle? I like that file too. I got a set like that without handles. I'm wondering if it's same story with the wood handle of that as well. I'll let someone else talk about the rest.

Thanks Model 12.  The handle is original it may look a little curved because it is slightly loose. The handle on the file looks like wood, but I believe it is layered paper.  I'll take more pics and post them.

I can never ever understand families selling old all-metal scissors.  Tools, I can understand selling - there may be no tool users in our sense of the word.  But everyone needs scissors, and the old ones will beat the new ones every time.
