Chisels and Punches
« on: February 20, 2023, 08:59:59 PM »
I purchased this Matco punch and chisel set at an estate sale this weekend.  It was full of punches and chisels.  I didn't have much time, so I took a flier, hoping the contents were all Matco. When cleaning them, I found 12 Matco, 7 Snap-On, one each Craftsman,  Blue Line, and a 1/4 Allen wrench turned down to make a punch.  Not bad for $8. The Snap-On punches have a little pitting, and a few punches in both sets have tips that need to be reprofiled
