Nice Book-Just wish you could search by maker...,
By NHMom (New Hampshire) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Antique Trader Tools Price Guide (Antique Trader's Tools Price Guide) (Paperback)
We like this tool price guide book, but we just wish it was set up so you could look up tools by their maker rather than by just what they are. If you wanted to look up a certain Stanley Plane you would have to go to the planes section and read each description to find a Stanley plane. The index does not go by the maker of the tool, it just goes by what type of tool you are looking up. Still a useful price guide with beautiful photos.

his favorite new book,

This review is from: Antique Trader Tools Price Guide (Antique Trader's Tools Price Guide) (Paperback)
I purchased this book for my boyfriends birthday. He is very interested in old tools, and old things in general. He Loves it. He takes it out to the machine shed and compares tools, or just glances at the pages in the evenings. The two largest sections are those on plumb bobs and planes.

Best tool guide so far but still hoping for something better,

This review is from: Antique Trader Tools Price Guide (Antique Trader's Tools Price Guide) (Paperback)
This is an excellent book for collectors and just folks who like tools. Like the others mentioned I only wish it was indexed or set up so that a person could look up a specific tool. It is still the best I have seen and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys reading about tools and looking at the excellent photos.
It does not tell you much about the history or application of the tools. There are other books that do this. This author/editor has written a book that is for those of us who already know something about tools.
