A collection of vintage wooden hand tools, primarily comprising a variety of joiner’s planes. The group includes several bench planes, such as jack and trying planes, alongside a selection of moulding planes with profiled soles and irons, rebate planes, and smaller smoothing or block planes. The bodies are constructed from hardwood, typically beech, with steel irons secured by wooden wedges. One plane is stamped with the maker’s mark RICHARDSON on the toe. Other items within the lot display various stamped owner’s marks and maker’s stamps which are less distinct due to age. The lot also includes a wooden carpenter’s mallet and a metal tool, likely a chisel or punch. These tools feature construction details typical of late 19th and early 20th-century British manufacture, including mortise-fixed tote handles on the larger planes.
