Wood carving tools mixed set.  Mathieson.

Description

Wood carving tools mixed set.. Condition is "Used".
Set of 12 mixed carving tools. Made by Mathieson of Glasgow who are best known for their wood infill planes
I bought this set at the old Brick Lane market, London, in 1981 and used them in my job as a furniture restorer.
They've been sitting in the toolbox unused for 35 years now.
Hand- turned boxwood handles, brass ferrules.
Three tools are missing these ferrules.
As pictured. A mix of flat and bent gouges, flat and bent parting tools...
Blade length about 3 3/4".
Some surface rust which has caused some variable  pitting on some of the blades.
These are quality tools for fine work. The steel takes a very fine edge.
Please note that timely delivery is no longer a guarantee due to an overwhelmed USPS system. I ship with 2-3 day Priority Mail and recently, some items have taken up to 5 weeks to be delivered. Do not purchase any of my items if you're expecting prompt delivery. I can no longer, and will not, promise delivery within the  limits given by the eBay and USPS algorithms. All of my items have eventually arrived, and I thank my buyers for their patience. I will not entertain requests for refunds while the items are obviously delayed in transit. Such delays are beyond my control.
Local pickup is always available by appointment.
Thank you.
