Fortunately they were open at 7:45 and I was only 4 minutes late to work.  Pick these up and paid a buck each.
Powr-Kraft hacksaw - seems sturdy.
Poper Iron & Wire Works Chicago Ill file handle
Defiance 99 style knife but no name or number - Made In USA on back.
Modern Snap On phillips - tip in very good shape.  SDDP42.  I needed a couple good phillips drivers.
Blackhawk ST1343 USA phillips also good cond.

Those file handles are SO much better than the universal file handles sold nowadays.  I've got two of them (different make), and wish I had more!

Nice finds at a good price. I just watched a video with ScoutCrafter restoring some cast iron file handles. About two weeks ago I went to a garage sale of a wood worker and bought about 20 hand made wooden file handles. I used all but four of them that are too big for my hands. I mounted the files in the handles using Gorilla glue.

I've wondered for some years...is Gorilla glue like hide glue, but made from gorillas?
