First, I'm an old fart and don’t have paypal or any other EFT gizmos, so payment by US Postal money order please unless I recognize you from the forum, then checks are fine; all prices are plus shipping and I’ll combine items to get you the best rate. First Private Message with an unequivocal “I’ll take it” gets priority in line and I’ll respond to every PM promptly with the best shipping rate via USPS. Please put your name and full shipping address in the PM so I can print shipping labels, this avoids a lot of back and forth. Multiple pics of the tools are in the link to a Flickr album. Flaws, if any, are noted and pointed out as apologies and prices asked reflect those apologies.
Here's a link to the Flickr album with the pics:

Items are described in order of appearance in the album.
First up is a T16 pre war #3; only apology is a chip in the cheek in the front of the plane, no effect on use, but its an apology. Rosewood furniture is solid, plenty of iron (I reset the bevel at 25 deg, ready for honing), no cracks in the metal, overall very nice plane. Will make an excellent smoother for someone. Yours for $50 plus shipping.
Next is a pair of skew chisels, vintage but not marked, I skewed these many years ago and were my users until I found others, one is 3/4" the other 5/8". Good steel, holds an edge. Take the pair for $20 plus shipping.
Nest is a Disston No 9, 27", 5pt filed rip. Saw is sharped, but apology is that there is a horn repair, done well, and two chipped teeth, look at these pics and you'll see they area chip of the tip; again, should not affect use and in the next sharpening they will come out. The #9 is a premium saw for its day, London Spring Steel, their top of the line. A fine saw. https://www.disstonianinstitute.com/9page.html Given the apology, yours for $65 plus shipping.
Next is a Disston D8; 26", 8pt, freshly sharpened and set, plate straight and has a nice ring to it, handle is solid with no cracks. See pics with test cuts into cherry in the album. Only apology is there is a round rust stain on the plate, but I polished the plate and its smooth, so more of a stain than pitting, and its way up on the plate. No big deal. This is a fine saw and will make you a good user for many years. Yours for $55 plus shipping.
You can have both saws for $110 plus shipping; great value over new, and these are better than new production.
Last but not at all least is an english Stanley #90 bullnose; 100% nickling, full iron, very little use at all, it all works as it should. Zero apologies, its an excellent plane in excellent condition. Yours for $65 plus shipping, a very reasonable price so it can go to a good home.
So again, send PMs and please read the payment terms above. In your PM please include your name and shipping address so I can print mailing labels, this cuts down on replies.
Thanks for looking.
