Sold Ashley Iles set of carving chisels. Available middle of January 2024.

[mc281]

I am selling a box of very early Ashley Iles carving chisels. Beech handles, gold labels and embossed blades. Made when they were in Sheffield and extremely good stuff. These were my Dad's and it looks as though one has been used once.
They won't be available until January because I want to run the blades through the buffing machine at our workshop to remove some very slight surface discolouration on a couple of them. Most edges are factory fresh.
I thought I might use them but they've been in their box for the last 10 years and it's a real shame no-one can use them.
Please PM me if you are interested.

Ah hadn't seen that a price was needed to list.... Sorry...I was waiting until I had polished them up to decide on a price.
I will be selling for £150 but not until polished and photographed in January.
There six in the box plus 1 extra so 7 in total.

Not in the market, but I would deprioritise the polishing if I were you, these will sell anyway. To the user, polishing will add very little (me personally, none at all).

 

[mc281]

Not interesting in adding value but I prefer lovely tools so wouldn't sell anything but to someone else. The price is already set in any case.
The only thing to add might be postage if not a collection sale.

Changed listing now they've been buffed up. Two guys said they wanted 1st refusal but neither have responded so far.
